Clear low noise images are obtained even in high gain mode.
Auto shading compensation (ASC)
x
Color shading incurred when using a C mount lens is automatically compensated
(attenuated).
Two modes of shading are provided and can be selected according to the cameras
application, a vertical color shading mode or a two-dimensional luminance-shading mode.
x Bi-directional data communication
The camera can be connected to a personal computer via RS-232C for two-way data
communications to provide finely detailed camera control. An identification (ID) code
can be assigned to each camera in a system and allow remotely controlling multiple
cameras from a single computer.
Notes to users
Important safety notes
zUse this camera with a 12 VDC power supply.
zObserve that flammable objects, water or metal do not enter the camera interior. These
may lead to failure or accident.
zDo not modify the camera or use the camera with external covers removed. These may
cause failure, void any warranties and pose a safety hazard.
zStop using the camera at the approach of an electrical storm (thunder audible). Protect
the camera from rain if using it outdoors.
zIn event the camera shows any abnormality, switch off the camera and disconnect the
power cord. Contact a Hitachi Denshi service representative.
Operating considerations
zPower supply
Check that the supplied voltage is between 10.5 and 15 VDC. Inadequate voltage can
affect color fidelity and cause noise, while voltage over 15 V can damage the camera.
zConnectors
Confirm the power is off before connecting or disconnecting a signal cable. Grasp
connectors by the body, not the attached wires.
zLens
The correct lens is important for deriving optimum performance from the camera.
Consult a Hitachi Denshi dealer for a selection of fine lenses according to the application.
