Numbers of connector pins

This unit is a single TV camera, switchable between color and black&white and 
equipped with a 1/3-inch CCD (Charge Coupled Device) with about 380,000 
picture elements (NTSC). With a single camera, high-quality color images are 
obtained by day, whereas high-sensitivity black-and-white images by night. The 
unit provides for higher resolution, greater sensitivity and crisper pictures and 
has back-light compensation, AES (Automatic Electronic Shutter), auto iris and 
other functions. The CCTV camera is best suited for general monitoring 
applications.

(1) Day/night selection function

Depending on the ambient brightness, automatic mode selection is made. 
High-quality color images are achieved by day, and high-sensitivity black-
and-white ones by night, which offer crisp pictures 24 hours. The switching 
can also be controlled when combined with external sensors and other 
devices.

(2) Digital process

The video signal processing is controlled by an internal RGB digital signal 
processor (DSP) for stable, clear pictures.

(3) High-quality and high-resolution pictures

The unit is designed for noises as low as a smear level of -110 dB. What’s 
more, the DSP-based appropriate details correction function is available for 
sharper images with better signal/noise ratio.
The horizontal resolution is as high as 540 TV lines in the color mode and as 
high as 570 TV lines in the black-and-white mode.

(4) Back-light compensation

With the auto iris lens or the AES in use, effective back-light compensation 
can be achieved.

(5) Auto iris function (Exclusive for DC iris lens)

The unit is compatible with DC iris lens. A wide variety of CCTV-destined 
auto iris lenses are applicable.

(6) Auto white balance

The unit is also provided with automatically tracking white balance control 
(ATW). Subjects are automatically corrected to optimum white balance 
regardless of their color temperature fluctuations.

(7) AES (Automatic Electronic Shutter)

The AES function with a sensitivity ratio of 1 : 1600 employs variable stepwise 
control to provide smooth sensitivity control. Even with a fixed aperture lens, 
stable video outputs are equivalent to those with a F1.4 thru F50 auto iris lens.
(This function is not usable in regions where the power frequency and the 
camera’s vertical frequency are different.)

(8) Flange focal distance adjustment mechanism

When a zoom lens is used, the focus tracking is easily adjustable.

(9) Focus EZ function

Just press the button located at the back of the unit, and the auto iris lens 
aperture will be kept open. Even in broad daylight, the focus is readily 
adjustable no matter how much the depth of field is.

(10) Monitor selection function

Optimum picture quality can be preset according to the type of monitor (CRT 
or LCD) being connected.

FOCUS EASY switch (FOCUS EZ)

With an auto iris lens being connected, this switch is used to support the focus 
adjustment. Just press the FOCUS EZ button, and the lens aperture is kept 
open for about 40 seconds. (Press it again, and the aperture opening time will 
be prolonged.)

 

This function helps adjust the focus easily even in broad daylight no matter 
how much the depth of field is. 
After using this button, the unit resets itself to its original focus mode. 
 

Day/night selector switch (D/N)

The AUTO and COLOR modes are selectable.
AUTO: Automatic switching for high-quality color images by day and 

high-sensitivity black-and-white ones by night.
* When the remote terminal gets short-circuited, the screen 

switches itself to the B/W mode (priority given to remote control).

COLOR: Fixed in COLOR mode

* When the remote terminal gets short-circuited, the screen 

switches itself to the B/W mode (priority given to remote control).

Display monitor selector switch

Optimum picture quality is selectable according to the type of monitor, CRT or LCD.
CRT: Preset for connecting to a cathode ray tube monitor
LCD: Recommended when hooking up an LCD motor or digital video monitor

Remote terminal

This is the sensor signal input terminal for the day/night switching filter. 
By getting the terminals short-circuited, the B/W mode is fixed.

* For remote control alone, set the switch to “COLOR” to put the signals 

through the remote terminal.

* No. 2 pin is used as GND terminal. Even by connecting No.1 pin to the 

GND terminal, the B/W mode is fixed.

Line lock phase control (LL PHASE)

This control adjusts the phases of the video output and the power line.

Precautions in setting the LL PHASE
1. Press the LL PHASE’s “<” and “>” buttons at once, and the phase will

be back to its factory setting.

2. When the “<” and “>” buttons have been pressed at once, push the “>”

button once more to put the data in memory.

Suppose that the day/night switching function is enabled under 
infrared lighting. If the light is too strong, the color mode and the 
B/W mode may be switched alternately at regular intervals. 
Accordingly, in installing the camera, make sure there is no such 
trouble. Or it is advisable to control the color and B/W modes with 
the remote terminal.
