monitor allows users to use this product as a monitoring camera.

Preface

Introduction of newly developed high-resolution CCD

The introduction of the newly developed CCD with 976 horizontal pixels has led to a horizontal 

resolution of as high as 600 TV lines.

High sensitivity achieved because of noise reduction function

Sensitivity at the following minimum illuminations has been accomplished for color images 

because of the introduction of low noise circuit design (F1.4): 0.07 lx (black-and-white)

Day/Night conversion function equipped 

No setup change is required at night because the image automatically changes from the color 

mode to the black-and-white mode at low illuminance.

Important:

Procure 2 screws (M4) to secure the camera to a ceiling according to the material of the 

• 

installation area. Do not use wood screws and nails. For mounting a camera on a con-

crete ceiling, use an anchor bolt (M4) for securing.

(Recommended tightening torque M4: 1.6 N·m)

Required pull-out strength of a single screw/bolt is 196 N or more.

• 

If a ceiling board such as plaster board is too weak to support the total weight, the instal-

• 

lation area shall be suffi ciently reinforced.

The protection sheet attached to the dome section should be peeled off after installation.

Radio interference

When the camera is used near TV/radio antenna, strong electric field or magnetic field (near a 

motor or a transformer), images may be distorted and noise sound may be produced.

In such a case, run the camera cable through specialized steel conduit tubes.

Locally procure the screws

Screws are not supplied with this product.

Prepare the screws according to the material, structure, strength and other factors of the 

mounting area and the total weight of objects to be mounted.

Screw tightening

The screws and bolts must be tightened with an appropriate tightening torque according 

• 

to the material and strength of the installation area.

Do not use an impact driver. Failure to observe this may cause overtightening and conse-

• 

quently damage to the screws.

When a screw is tightened, make the screw at a right angle to the surface. After tighten-

• 

ing the screws or bolts, perform visual check to ensure tightening is enough and there is 

no backlash.
