• Mounting a lens
Remove the lens mount cap from the camera
Attach or remove the C-mount adapter depending on the lens to be used.
- If the adapter is attached so tightly that is difficult to remove, use long - nosed
pliers to remove it.
Insert the tips of the pliers into the holes with no threads, thus turn to remove.
A screwdriver can be also used. Insert M2.6 Screws into the holes so that the screw driver has
something to grip.(Store the C-mount adapter for possible future use)
Attach the lens to the mount and secure it so that it does not become loose.
If the lens has an auto-IRIS mechanism, connect the lens connector.
- When a Video-IRIS lens is used, lens switch should be set VIDEO position.
- When a DC IRIS lens is used,lens switch should be set DC position.
• ADJUSTING AUTO-IRIS LENSES
Make this adjustment after connecting the camera to a power source and a monitor.
Set AGC mode to “Off”.
When using a Video type lens. Adjust the iris level on the lens to produce minimum smear and optimum
picture quality.
When using a DC type lens. Use the cameras onboard DC iris level adjuster to produce minimum
smear and optimum picture quality.
Set AGC mode to “On”. It is recommended to set AGC mode on after adjusting the video level.
