Operating Precautions
● To save energy, be sure to turn off the
system when not in use.
● This camera has been designed for indoor
use. It cannot be used outdoors.
● This camera has been designed
exclusively to be hung from the ceiling. It
may malfunction if it is placed standing
on a surface or if it is installed in a tilted
position.
● Do not install or use the camera in the
following places.
• In a place exposed to rain or water.
• In a place with vapor or oil soot, for
example in a kitchen.
• Where the temperature is outside the
allowed operating temperature range
(−10°C to 50°C).
• Near a source of radiation, X-rays,
strong radio waves or magnetism.
• In a place subjected to vibrations.
• In a place with excessive dirt.
● The camera incorporates an AGC circuit.
When it is used under low light conditions,
the camera sensitivity is automatically
boosted and the picture may look grainy.
This is not a malfunction.
● Use the ATW (auto-tracking white
balance) mode when the camera is used
under fluorescent lighting. If set to
MANUAL, the correct white balance may
not be accomplished.
● When this camera is used in the ATW
(auto-tracking white balance) mode, the
recorded colors may be slightly different
from the actual colors due to the
operational principles of the auto-tracking
white balance circuit. This is not a
malfunction.
● If a high-intensity object (such as a lamp)
is shot, the image on the screen may have
vertical lines (smear) or blur (blooming)
at its periphery. This is a characteristic of
the CCD; and it is not a defect.
● The camera’s electronic shutter is set to
1/60 s when shipped from the factory.
When the camera is used under
fluorescent lighting in an area with a local
power frequency of 50 Hz, please set the
shutter to 1/100 s on remote control unit.
(Sensitivity will decrease slightly at the 1/
100 s setting.)
● When dirt adheres to the dome cover, the
image will be difficult to see. Be sure to
clean the lens and the dome cover
periodically. Use a soft cloth for cleaning.
Do not use thinner, benzene, etc. If very
soiled, soak the cloth in a neutral
detergent diluted with water and wipe
clean. Then wipe with a dry cloth.
