manual carefully in order to make sure that the best possible per-  
formance is obtained.  
Features  
Backlight compensation over a wide area is realized by the 14-bit  
Wide Dynamic Range feature.  
The Wide Dynamic Range feature controls the exposure time using  
a maximum of 5 sampling timing for the image within a single screen.  
Even when shooting in areas with large difference in lightning, sub-  
jects with difference in brightness can be viewed in a clear and natu-  
ral state.  
1/3-inch high-resolution DPS device adopted as shooting element  
to realize high picture quality with no smearing or blooming in areas  
with high luminance. In addition, 1.9lx (during F1.2, 50%,AGC HIGH  
setting) is realized for minimum subject brightness.  
Horizontal resolution of 480 lines (typ.) and vertical resolution of over  
400 lines allow display of finely detailed video.  
New device adopted for use even under strong electric field condi-  
tions.  
Compatible with CS mount and VIDEO auto iris/DC auto iris.  
* When using the C mount lens, C mount adapter is required.  
Various settings in each menu screen are possible.  
Menu settings can be performed easily using single button opera-  
tions.  
3 white balance modes of ATW, AWB and MANUAL are available.  
ATW mode that adjusts the white balance automatically according  
to the changes in lighting conditions (color temperature) or AWB/  
MANUAL mode that automatically or manually adjusts and locks the  
white balance of specific lighting conditions can be selected.  
Camera title setting and display can be made.  
Compact design allows installation in narrow spaces.

INTRODUCTION  
Operating Precautions  
To save energy, when it is not being used turn the system’s power  
off.  
This camera has been designed for indoor use.  
When you use it outdoors, be sure to use an appropriate housing.  
Do not install or use the camera in the following places.  
• In a place exposed to rain or moisture.  
• In a place with vapor or oil soot, for example in a kitchen.  
• When the ambient temperature rises above or falls below the ac-  
ceptable range (from –10°C to 50°C).  
• Near a source of radiation, X-rays, strong radio waves or magne-  
tism.  
• In a place where corrosive gasses are generated.  
• In a place subject to vibration.  
• In a place with excessive dirt.  
If this camera and the cables connected to this camera are used  
where there are strong electromagnetic waves or where there is  
magnetism present, for example near a radio or TV transmitter, power  
transformer or an electric motor, the picture may produce noise and  
the colours may be affected.  
This camera incorporates an AGC circuit. As a result, when it is  
used under low light conditions, the camera sensitivity is automati-  
cally boosted and the picture may look uneven. However, this is not  
a malfunction.  
When this camera is used in the ATW mode, the recorded colours  
may be slightly different from the actual colours due to the opera-  
tional principles of the auto-tracking white balance circuit. However,  
this is not a malfunction.  
Hunting may occur depending on the used lens. However, this is not  
a malfunction of the unit.  
The screen surroundings may appear dark depending on the used  
lens.

INTRODUCTION  
Operating Precautions (continued)  
The white balance (ATW) of this device is optimally set for sunlight.  
Proper white balance may not be achieved for artificial lighting such  
as fluorescent lighting, etc.  
If you use this camera in locations where the camera is exposed to  
fluorescent light, a slow color change may occur.  
(White balance normal = 5,400 K, range is 2,500 K to 10,000 K.)  
AGC HIGH(×2) and up: in this mode, ATW white balance may be  
inaccurate.  
White balance performance decreases under poor lighting condi-  
tions.  
Observe the following when carrying out camera maintenance.  
• Turn the power OFF before proceeding to carry out maintenance.  
If it is contaminated seriously, clean the contaminated part with a  
cloth (or a tissue) which has been soaked in a solution of water and  
a neutral detergent.  
The unit is to be powered by a DC 12 V or an AC 24 V power supply.  
The AC 24 V power supply should conform to the following:  
U type : Class 2 only  
E type : Isolated power supply only  
The beat may sometimes appear on the screen if gain is raised  
when the line lock is in use, but the phenomenon takes place due to  
the fluctuation of power frequency and is not a malfunction.  
At Low light levels, video iris lens may “Hunt”. Please adjust iris  
level on lens to minimise hunting.  
Recommended range of operating temperature is 0°C to 35°C de-  
grees. The camera will function outside these parameters to –10°C  
to 50°C degrees. But processing errors may be apparent.  
Line-Lock is set for 50 Hz 0.02 Hz. If line frequency is outside this  
tolerance, picture may jitter and some interference may be visible in  
high contrast scenes.  
At low light level, when the slow shutter functions the screen may be  
tinted.  
6
 
Blemishes: Small spots are normal, the camera contains compen-  
sation functions for blemishes above 120 mV (p-p) in value. Please  
contact your JVC authorised dealer for further information.  
For temperatures higher than the recommended temperature, the  
slow shutter may not work correctly.

Memo  
If thin cables are used (i.e. with a high resistance), a significant  
voltage drop will occur when the unit is at its maximum power  
consumption. Either use a thick cable to restrict the voltage drop  
at the camera side to below 10%, or place the power supply  
near to the camera. If voltage drop occurs during operation, the  
performance will be unstable.  
Attach the cable conductors so that they do not come into con-  
tact with the drop prevention wires.  
Do not allow input from both a DC 12 V and AC 24 V power  
supply at the same time.  
When using a DC 12 V power supply, ensure that the polarities  
of the cable are correct.  
The AC 24 V power supply should conform to the following:
