Mounting Surface The mounting surface material must be strong enough to secure the L5AK4/US, L5AL4/US GB 2003, 4, 17

securely. If it is not installed correctly, it may fall down. In addition, do not touch the camera in places except where settings and adjustments are necessary. Installing the Model VDC-D1184VA 1 Use the supplied hexagonal wrench to remove the four fixing screws (B) of dome cover (A). 2 Make screw holes and a cable hole in the cushioning sheet (D) that attaches to the back of the camera unit (C). 3 Attach the cushioning sheet (double-sided tape) to the back of the camera unit. 4 Align the camera unit with the surface of the ceiling, make marks on the ceiling in the places where the screw holes are to be drilled, and then drill the four holes. 5 Cut a hole in the ceiling for routing the cables. Note: If not routing the cables inside the ceiling, pass the cables through the conduit hole.

This switch lets you select the timing of the automatic switching of the optical filter to color image or black and white image, according to the subject brightness. The default setting is down (LOW). Set the switch according to the brightness. (Fig. 1) H: for a brighter setting than LOW L: Standard setting Notes: • After the power has been turned off, switching will restart from color, when the power is restored. • A sound may be heard when the color image or black and white image is switched. Also, the image will be distorted as shown in Fig. 1, this is normal and does not indicate a problem. • When using infrared lighting, if there is a strong reflection on the subject, the optical filter may switch from black and white to color mode. Use only enough infrared lighting so that the mode is not switched High speed electronic shutter setting Normally, the speed setting switches for the high speed electronic shutter are all set to the down (OFF) position. This sets the electronic shutter (ES 1, 2) speed to 1/60 sec. The switches can be set as indicated in table A to select one of the 4 speeds available. CAUTION: Using the high speed electronic shutter indoors with low lighting, will give darker pictures. In such a case, add some lights to make sure the lighting is sufficient. If the lighting is very bright, pay attention to the light angle in order to avoid or minimize the smear phenomenon effect. Table A (switch 2 ~ 3) 1 1/60 2 1/100 3 1/1000 4 1/2000 (Unit: sec.)

This camera has two different backlight compensation functions: Normally backlight compensation switch 5 (BL-M) and 6 (BL-C) are set to the down (OFF) position. Change the backlight compensation switch settings depending on the conditions. • BL-M mode: (Multi-spot) Use this position when applying backlight compensation to the whole of the screen. • BL-C mode: (Center-focus) Use this position when applying backlight compensation to only the central portion of the screen. Note: • If switches 5 and 6 are set to the up (ON) position at the same time, the BL-M setting will have priority. • When BL-M mode is set, scenes with no backlighting may appear extremely dark and the object may appear over-exposed. If this happens, set to BL-C mode. 5 6 (BL-M mode: 64 sections) (BL-C mode) L5AK4/US, L5AL4/US GB 2003, 4, 17

Normally the switch 7 (WB) is set to the down (ATW: auto white balance) position and the white balance is adjusted automatically. If a manual white balance adjustment is necessary, follow the steps below. Set the switch 7 (WB) to the up (MANU: manual) position, then adjust the color. • Turn R (VR302) to set the red ratio and/or B (VR303) to set the blue ratio. Synchronization settings The default setting is internal synchronization (INT). You can change the power supply synchronization by moving switch 8 to the up (LL) position. Refer to “Line phase adjustment” for details. Line phase adjustment When using a camera switcher to connect 2 cameras or more to one monitor, there may be a vertical roll of the images when switched. In such a case, set as described below. 1 Set the switch 8 (SYNC) to the up (LL) position. 2 Switch the display on the monitor from camera 1 to camera 2. Adjust the PHASE volume on camera 2 until the vertical roll of the image stops. If more than two cameras are used, please repeat this procedure for all the cameras. CAUTION: If the vertical roll cannot be corrected by setting the PHASE volume on camera 2, try setting the PHASE volume on camera 1. If it still cannot be corrected, please check that the polarity of the power cords of all connected devices is correct 7 VR302 VR303 B R WB 8 VR322 PHASE L5AK4/US, L5AL4/US GB 2003, 4, 17

Connect each cable as indicated below, to set the image to black and white or color as desired. • Color image setting Connect the Color (yellow) and the White (ground) cables. • Black and white setting Connect the B/W (purple) and the White (ground) cables.
