INSTALLATION  
Lens Mounting  
MC3610 and MC3710 Series cameras can use fixed iris, manual iris, auto iris, or direct drive lenses. Cameras  
are factory-set for CS-mount lenses, but are easily adjusted for C-mount lenses.  
1. C-Mount Lens Only - Loosen the two back focus locking screws. Rotate the back focus adjust-  
ment ring fully counterclockwise before installing the C-mount lens (refer to the section on Back Focus  
Adjustment).  
2. Screw the lens onto the lens mount. Be careful to prevent dust from entering the space between the  
lens and the CCD element. If necessary, use clean, compressed air to remove any foreign matter.  
3. Auto Iris Lens Only - Connect the auto iris lens to the four-pin iris drive connector located on  
the side of the camera. Pin connections for the iris drive connector are as follows.

Camera Mounting  
Mounting points are provided on the top and bottom of the camera and are used to mount the camera on a  
bracket or tripod. They are designed to accept standard photographic mounting bolts (1/4-inch UNC-20). The  
mounting bracket must be capable of supporting the weight of the camera and its lens.  
NOTE: Some installation codes dictate that the mounting bracket must be capable of supporting up to four  
times the combined weight of the camera and lens.  
Figure 3. Camera Mounting  
CONNECTIONS  
MC3610 and MC3710 Series cameras offer standard power and coax video connectors as well as an RJ45-10  
connector that combines low voltage power and video (composite or UTP except MC3710S models which do  
not have a UTPoutput). These cameras also have a service connector allowing a video monitor to be connected  
locally to the camera using a composite video BNC cable.  
Video Connections  
To obtain a video output, connect a video coaxial cable terminated with a 75BNC connector to the BNC  
socket marked VIDEO OUTon the rear of the camera. Refer toTableAfor the type of video coaxial cable to use.

Another way to transmit video is over unshielded twisted pair wiring through the RJ45-10 connector. Refer to  
the RJ45-10 Connections section. When using the Genlock connector or outputting composite video through  
the BNC or RJ45-10, do not send UTP output to a passive UTP receiver. However it is acceptable to use an  
active UTP receiver for UTP output in combination with the other video connections.  
Pelco Manual C2913M-F (08/05)  
[ 7 ]  
 
Power Connections  
MC3610 and MC3710 Series cameras are available in AC high voltage and AC/DC low voltage types. The  
voltage required to operate the camera is clearly marked on the rear panel of the camera. The green POWER  
LED on the rear panel indicates that power is connected. Power low voltage cameras only from a UL Listed  
Class 2 isolated power supply. Power consumption is 4 watts.  
Mains Power Supply  
Cameras that are intended to operate directly from the mains supply are fitted with a nondetachable power  
supply cord. The voltage of operation is 110 to 240 VAC at 50/60Hz.  
WARNING: Refer to the wiring instruction label attached to the supply cord. For instances  
where the camera will be connected to a socket outlet, the camera should be connected to an  
easily accessible socket outlet near to the camera. For instances where the camera will be  
connected to the building installation, the building wiring should incorporate a readily accessible  
disconnect device, with a contact separation greater than three millimeters. This device should be  
fitted into the live conductor, if that is readily identifiable, or should be 2-pole. All installations shall  
be carried out in accordance with the locally applicable installation rules.  
WARNING: Fuse (F1) should only be replaced by one of equivalent type and rating  
1A (T) HRC 250V  
WARNING: This camera is a Class 2 device and therefore does not have an earth connection  
in the power cord. The leakage current on these cameras is well within safe limits. However, it is  
advisable to connect the coaxial or RJ45-10 cable from the camera to the receiving equipment  
(such as a monitor or matrix) before applying power to the camera, so that this small leakage  
current has a low resistance path to earth.  
Low Voltage Power Supply  
Cameras fitted with an automatic-switching low voltage power supply operate at 10.8 to 13.8 VDC (12 VDC  
-10% +15%) or 20.4 to 27.6 VAC (24 VAC ±15%) at 50/60Hz. Connections and polarity are indicated adjacent  
to the screw terminals on the rear panel.  
Refer to Table B for the recommended wire gauge and wiring distances.  
WARNING: When powering the camera via the screw terminals, ensure that the power  
connections to the RJ45-10 connector are not used, and that any connections to the RJ45-10 are  
not shorted together. The power supply must be a UL Listed Class 2 isolated type.  
CAUTION: ACOperationOnly-Whenwiringmorethanonecameratothesametransformer,  
connect the same side of the transformer to the same terminal on all cameras. Failure to connect  
all of the cameras the same way will cause the cameras to be out of phase with each other and  
may produce a vertical roll when switching between cameras.

Genlock Connection (MC3710H Series Only)  
Genlock (short for generator lock) is a system that allows the synchronization of two or more cameras to a  
specific timing signal. The signal may come either from one of the cameras (a 1 V peak-to-peak video signal)  
or from an external generator (a standard sync plus blanking signal). Genlock synchronization allows you to  
switch the video source displayed on a monitor without noticeable jump or roll in the video.  
There are two ways to use genlock as your synchronization source:  
Connect an individual camera.  
1. Connect a video coaxial cable terminated with a 75 BNC connector to the socket marked GENLOCK  
on the rear of the camera.  
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the external sync generator or a 1 V peak-to-peak video signal from  
another camera.  
3. Set the GL Termination DIP switch on the camera’s back panel to 75 .  
Create a daisy chain of cameras.  
Two or more cameras can be genlocked together using 75 BNC tee adapters and 75 video coaxial cables  
as shown in figure 4. The GLTermination DIP switches for all of the cameras in the chain are set to Hi Z except  
for the final camera in the chain where it is set to 75 .  
Figure 4. Genlock Daisy-chain Connection  
NOTE: A signal connected to the genlock input automatically overrides all other synchronization settings.  
[ 10 ] Pelco Manual C2913M-F (08/05)  
 
RJ45-10 Connections  
The RJ45-10 connector allows video (composite and twisted pair except MC3710S models) and power  
connections to be made to the camera using a single Cat5-style cable.  
NOTE: The PCM150 camera mount is designed for the MC3610 and MC3710 Series camera. It comes with  
preconfigured auxiliary connectors and cables as well as an easy-to-wire adapter plate.  
Before installation, identify the RJ45-10 connector leads to be used. To create the connection you will need a  
Cat5 cable with the appropriate number of pairs and an 8-way or 10-way RJ45-10 connector. You will also need  
a crimping tool capable of cutting, stripping, and crimping RJ50 (10P10C) connectors.  
Wire the cable and connectors according to Table C. (More information about wiring each pair of leads appears  
in the text below the table.) Then plug the auxiliary connector into the camera.

All models except MC3710S  
The following instructions apply to 10-way connectors. When using an 8-way connector, refer to table C.  
Composite Video Out  
Pins 2 and 3 provide a composite video output signal.  
NOTE: The RJ45-10 composite video out is only intended to be used to route the video signal to a break-out  
box where a conventional coaxial connection will be made.  
Pelco Manual C2913M-F (08/05)  
[ 11 ]  
 
To send composite video through the RJ45-10 connector:  
1. Connect composite video out to pin 3.  
2. Connect composite video ground to pin 2.  
Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)  
Pins 5 and 6 allow video to be transmitted over unshielded twisted pair (UTP) wiring to equipment fitted with a  
suitable receiver (except MC3710S models). Ensure that connection polarity is observed in relation to the  
connected twisted pair receiver. To implement UTP, you must use 5-pair unshielded twisted cable, Cat5e, or an  
equivalent. The camera has a built-in transmitter for UTP. However, you must provide a UTP receiver. Your  
maximum cable distance depends on whether you install a passive or active receiver. When using the Genlock  
connector or outputting composite video through the BNC or RJ45-10, do not send UTP output to a passive  
UTP receiver. However it is acceptable to use an active UTP receiver for UTP output in combination with the  
other video connections.  
To send UTP video through the RJ45-10 connector:  
1. Connect UTP+ video output to pin 6.  
2. Connect UTP- video output to pin 5.  
24 VAC/12 VDC Power Connection  
Pins 8 and 9 allow connection to a power supply of 10.8 to 13.8 VDC (12 VDC -10% +15%) or 20.4 to 27.6 VAC  
(24 VAC ±15%) at 50/60Hz. Correct connections and polarity must be observed.  
WARNING: When powering the camera via the RJ45-10 connector, ensure that the power  
connections to the screw terminals on the rear of the camera are not used. The power supply must  
be a UL Listed Class 2 isolated type.  
Service Connection  
The service connector allows a video monitor to be connected locally to the camera using a 2.5 mm plug to  
composite video BNC cable.  
Figure 6. Service Connector  
NOTE: Inserting the plug into the service connector disconnects video from the composite BNC connector on  
the rear panel of the camera.

Line lock (LL) locks the frame rate to the power supply frequency. Eliminates vertical roll  
caused by multiple cameras connected to the same switching device. Each camera output  
is synchronized to the frequency of the power supply. Set the camera synchronization  
mode to one of the following:  
INT - Disables line lock and cameras will synchronize internally. Regardless of the DIP  
switch setting, cameras switch to this mode when a DC power supply is detected.  
LL (Default setting) - Line locks frame rate of cameras.  
Genlock Termination (MC3710H Series only) - Switch Setting 6  
In order for genlock synchronization to operate correctly, both ends of the genlock cable  
need to be terminated. Cameras may be connected in one of two ways:  
a) The genlock signal may be sent to each camera individually. In this case, the genlock  
termination DIP switch needs to be set to 75.  
b) The genlock signal may be sent to several cameras in a daisy-chain configuration,  
that is, one camera feeds the next and so on. In this case, the genlock termination  
DIP switch needs to be set to Hi Z for all of the cameras in the system except the last  
in the chain which should be set to 75.

Camera Synchronization  
When using more than one camera power supply, a brief vertical roll may occur on the monitor when a camera  
view is switched. To eliminate this vertical roll, it is necessary for the cameras to be synchronized. If the  
cameras are connected to certain Pelco matrix products, the cameras will automatically lock to the pulse signal  
that is transmitted up-the-coax. If not, it will be necessary to synchronize manually.  
NOTE: The genlock connection can be used to eliminate vertical roll problems on MC3710H cameras.  
Cameras can be line locked or synchronized internally. Select the preferred method using the INT/LL DIP  
switch on the rear of the camera (refer to the Switch Settings section).  
If a camera is connected to a DC power supply, the camera will switch to Internal (INT) mode, regardless of the  
DIP switch setting.  
Internal (INT) mode should be selected when a noisy AC power supply is being used.  
It may be necessary to have two people in communication when line locking cameras: one person at the camera  
and another person at the monitor to observe the vertical roll and the effect of any adjustments made at the  
camera.  
To line lock the cameras, do the following:  
1. Set the INT/LL DIP switch to LL.  
2. Choose a reference camera to which all other cameras will be phased.  
3. Select a camera and synchronize it to the reference camera, using the advance and retard buttons on the  
rear of the camera (refer to Figure 1) to adjust the point on the AC cycle at which the cameras trigger.  
4. Each time an adjustment is made, switch back and forth between the camera you are adjusting and the  
reference camera. Repeat this process as many times as necessary until the roll between the cameras is  
no longer noticeable.  
5. Adjust the phase of all other cameras by repeating steps 3 and 4. Always adjust to the reference camera  
selected in step 2.  
NOTE: The preferred method for camera phase adjustment is to use a dual trace oscilloscope to align the  
vertical sync pulses of the reference camera to the selected camera or cameras.
