INSTALLATION
2.2.2 (h) Attaching the Power Cable to the Connector
The 12-pin connector is keyed and will only fit in one orientation. Rotate the connector while applying
slight pressure until the keyways line up. Press the connector into place until firmly seated.
The power cord may now be plugged into the 110V AC socket, and the camera powered up.

2.2.3 Attaching the Video Output

Most users utilize the BNC connector for video output from the camera. Connect the output from the
camera to the input of your monitor, VCR or switching device. The input of the monitor should be
balanced for 75Ω termination. Standard RG-59 type coaxial cable should carry a full video signal for up
to 500 feet.
Users wishing to output the video and input the power and sync to a camera over a single cable can use
the PULNiX multi-conductor cables, such as the 12P-02, the KC-10, etc. The mini coaxial leads in
PULNiX multi-conductor cables are designed for short runs of no longer than 100 feet.
Note: Make sure that no extraneous wires are visible which could cause a short.

2.2.4 Attaching the Camera Lens

The TMC-7DSP/TMC-6DSP camera accepts 1/2" or larger format size C-mount lenses. To attach the C-
mount lens to the camera, carefully engage the threads and rotate the lens clockwise until it firmly seats
on the mounting ring. Do not force the lens if it does not seat properly. Please note that some lenses with
extremely long flangebacks may exceed the mounting depth of the camera.

2.2.5 Back Focusing the Lens

To backfocus the TMC-7DSP/TMC-
6DSP camera, first attach a C-mount lens
Back focus ring
in the lens mount. Be sure that the lens is
properly mounted.
Set the lens focus to infinity (if the lens is
a manual iris, set the iris to a high f-stop
Back focus 2 ft.
while still retaining a well-illuminated
image). Obtain the best focus possible at
this setting, then loosen the three miniature hex head set screws locking the focus ring in place. Now
turn the entire lens and focus ring assembly back and forth until the best image is obtained. Tighten the
focus ring set screws. Your backfocus is now set.

2.2.6 Auto-Iris Lens Setup (Optional)

The auto-iris option allows auto-iris lenses with full video input to be used with the PULNiX TMC-
7DSP/TMC-6DSP via the 6-pin connector located on the back of the camera. A mating 6-pin connector
(PC-6P) may be obtained from PULNiX. See Section 2.2.1 (b), "6-Pin Connector", on page 5 for
connections.
