Connect the cable (supplied) to control unit. Match the small
protrusion with the slit in the plug. Insert the plug and tighten the
screw.

Similarly, connect the plug to head connector.
After connecting the cable, turn on the monitor power, then, turn on the
power for the camera control unit.
Installing the ferrit core
If you use this camera module in Europe, install the ferrit core on the
cable.
Install the ferrit core on the control unit side of the cable.
Typical CCD Phenomena
The following effects on the monitor screen are characteristic of CCD
cameras. They do not indicate any fault with the camera module.
Smear
This occurs when shooting a very bright object such as electric lighting,
the sun, or a strong reflection.
This phenomenon is caused by an electric charge induced by infrared
radiation deep in the photosensor. It appears as a vertical smear, since
the CCD imaging element uses an interline transfer system.
Vertical aliasing
When you shoot vertical stripes or lines, they may appear jagged.

Notes for installing the C-mount lens to the XC-55BB
• To install the C mount lens, you will need a C mount adaptor LO-
999CMT (not supplied). The protrusion on the C mount lens must be
4.1mm (3/16 in.) or less from the lens mounted surface.
4.1mm or less
(3/16 in.)
• When you use a C mount adapter, lock the C-mount lens instead of
the camera head. This eliminates unnecessary force to the camera
head.
• Do not use the C mount adapter where there is excessive vibration or
shock, otherwise the C mount adapter and/or the camera may be
damaged.

Notes
• Do not touch the lens surface. Make sure the lens is clean.
• You can connect either cable end to the control unit or head unit.
Wrap the cable around the ferrit core (see the figure), then close it.
Make sure that the cable is not caught between the pawls of the ferrit
core.

Blemishes
A CCD image sensor consists of an array of individual sensor elements
(pixels). A malfunctioning sensor element will cause a single pixel
blemish in the picture. (This is generally not a problem.)
White speckles
When you shoot a dark object at a high temperature, small white dots
may appear all over the image.
Note
If strong light enters a wide area of the screen, the screen may become
dark. This is not a malfunction. If this occurs, avoid strong light or adjust
the lens iris to reduce the light amount.

The camera has two modes to output video signals. You can select a
