Turning the Power ON and OFF
The VC-C50i/VC-C50iR camera does not have a power switch. You can switch the camera on
by plugging the AC adapter into a wall outlet. When power to the camera is switched on, the
LED on the camera turns green. If the monitor is switched on, an image appears on the
screen.

Whenever you turn the camera on, the first use of the PC or wireless
controller to control the camera initializes the camera head position.
(Initialization takes several seconds.) The LED on the camera flashes
green (at 1-second intervals) during initialization.
Never touch the camera head during initialization. This could prevent
successful initialization and cause faults.
Wait at least five seconds before turning the power back on after shutting it
off. Turning it on too quickly may result in a malfunction. Observe the
precautions given in “a Safe Use of Equipment/a IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS” ( P.7–9).
