Installing the camera
When mounting the camera on a tripod, attach the tripod adaptor to
either the top or bottom of the camera. Use a 1/4" UNC-20 screw to
mount the camera on a tripod.
G
Fitting the camera tripod adaptor
1 Loosen screws 1–4 that secure the tripod adaptor. Remove the
adaptor carefully, and do not pull at the screws.
2 Remove screws 5 and 6.
3 Attach the tripod adaptor on the opposite side, and insert screws 5
and 6 on the surface from which the adaptor was removed.

Connections

Connecting the SSC-DC50A/50AP
Set the MODE switch to B. When the connections have been made, set
the DC 12V power supply switch to ON.
Note
To prevent short circuits, do not let the exposed ends of the mains lead
wires touch each other when connecting to the mains lead terminals.

Using an internal synchronization signal
To operate with an internal synchronization signal, no connection to the
synchronization signal source (5, 6 and 7 above) is necessary.

(not supplied) (Power multiplex)
Set the MODE switch to A. When the connections have been made, set
the YS-W150/150P/250/250P power supply switch to ON.

Using an internal synchronization signal
To operate with an internal synchronization signal, set the L.L/INT switch
2 to INT. Connecting the synchronization siganl source (6, 7, 8) is
not necessary.
Using an AC 24 V power supply (SSC-DC54A/54AP)
• When using a power supply without ground lead (two-lead type),
connect the output of the power supply to the AC 24V 1 and 2 terminals
of the camera.
• When using a power supply with ground lead (three-lead type), connect
the ground lead to the GND terminal and the other two leads to the AC
24V 1 and 2 terminals of the camera.

Phase Adjustment

When using more than one camera, adjust the phase according to the
following procedure.
Vertical phase (L.L mode) (SSC-DC54A/54AP/58AP)
The picture may roll vertically if the vertical phase is not set. Use the
PHASE volume to adjust the vertical phase.
Horizontal phase (VS/VBS lock mode)
The picture may shift horizontally when using an extended cable. Use
the PHASE volume to adjust the horizontal phase.

CCD Characteristics

The following conditions may be observed when using a CCD camera
are not due to any fault within the camera.
Vertical smear
This phenomenon occurs when viewing a very bright object.
Patterned noise
This is a fixed pattern which may appear over the entire monitor screen
when the camera is operated a high temperature.
Jagged picture
When viewing stripes, straight lines, or similar patterns, the image on
the screen may appear jagged.
