Features

■ A DSP (Digital Signal Processor) features a Extended Dynamic Range (ExDR) and enables to shoot both bright and dark locations.
■ The use of a CCD with a SENSE UP (X32) function realized the minimum luminous flux density for subject of 0.9 lx (F1.2, 50%, AGC 20dB) and 0.03 lx (at SENSE UP (X32)). Furthermore, we realized 0.03 lx (F1.2, 50% AGC 20dB) thanks to the function of B/W mode.
■ A motion detector function detects the motion inside an image and emits alarm signals.
■ The equipped Y/C terminals and RS-422A/RS-485 terminals allow intended compatibility with diversified systems.
■ Day/Night surveillance When the light is low, the camera pictures can be switched automatically to black and white pictures.
■ Electronic zoom The 10x electronic zoom allows monitoring in far greater detail.

■ Before starting an important recording, be sure to perform a test recording in order to confirm that a normal recording is possible.
■ We do not accept liability for the loss of a recording in the case of it becoming impossible to record due to a problem in the video camera, VCR or video tape.
■ We do not accept liability for any damage to the camera in cases where it is dropped because of bad installation due to failure to observe the installation instructions correctly. Please be careful when installing the camera.
■ The motion detector is not a feature which prevents theft, fire, etc. Even if an accident should occur resulting in damage, we do not accept any liability.

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 a housing or the like.

• 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 acceptable range (from -10^ to 50^ ).
• Near a source of radiation, X-rays, strong radio waves or magnetism.
• 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 automatically boosted and the picture may look uneven. However, this is not a malfunction.
• While the AGC is activated, if transceiver which causes strong electromagnetic wave is at close distance, picture might suffer from beat.

So please use the camera more than three meters from such transceivers.

• When this camera is used in the ATW mode, the recorded colours may be slightly different from the actual colours due to the operational principles of the auto-tracking white balance circuit. However, 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 is not a defect.

- 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. (TK-C1430E) The AC 24 V power supply should conform to the following: Isolated power supply only

TK-C1431EG: Connect the power cable to the commercial power supply of 220V – 240V.

- Caution for operating the video iris lens. If the video iris lens is set to an extremely low level, a malfunction – such as the hunting phenomenon where the iris opens and closes in voluntary – can occur. In such a case, first set the “LEVEL” potentiometer on the lens to the H position (iris open), and then adjust it to an optimum level. ( page 20)

• The cable stopper on the terminal block can come off sometimes. Therefore, be sure to take enough time and fix the cable securely.
• When a highly bright subject is shot, sometimes undulations can be observed on the vertical lines of the subject. However, this phenomenon is peculiar to the unit and is not a sign of malfunction.
• 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.
• You may hear some noise when the screen is switched between the colour and the black and white mode, because the optical filter moves. Also, black vertical bands will appear on the screen.
• Set the Iris Selector switch to VIDEO to use the manual lens.

When controlling with any system except the RM-P2580, execute proper settings using switches and menu screens according to the systems used. (Page 14)

MEMO

• When operating a system using the RM-P2580, several cameras (up to 16) can be connected and used on one control signal cable. Consequently, an incorrect switch setting on just a single camera will cause the entire system to work incorrectly.
• Confirm switch settings on the screen as follows.

① Confirm that the image from the camera to be checked is displayed on the monitor.
② Turn OFF and then ON the AC power to the camera to be checked.
③ The camera begins the initial operation and characters similar to those shown in the illustration on the right appear on the monitor screen.
④ Confirm that "DUPLEX" and "ID-□□" are displayed and that the ID number is the correct number (the number should be the same as the number of the VIDEO INPUT terminal to which the camera is connected on the rear panel of the RM-P2580).
⑤ If wrong, set the camera ID again.

TK-C1431EG Page 17

Mounting the lens

Mount the lens according to the procedures described below.

1. Before mounting a lens, check whether it is a C-mount or CS-mount lens.

Tochange the mounting method, loosen the back-focus locking screw (M 2.6) using a Phillips head screwdriver, turn the back-focus adjusting ring with your fingers or the screwdriver and change the mounting method.

As regards the dimension (b) of the area to which the lens is to be installed as illustrated on the left diagram, use the one with less value than what's shown in the table below.

For both the C-mount and CS-mount, never use whatever exceeds the dimension (b), as such will not allow normal installation and damage the inner part of the camera, resulting in a malfunction.

Lens Flange back (c) Dimension (b)
C mount lens	17.526mm 5.5mm	or less
CS mount lens	12.5mm 5.5mm	or less

The F mark indicates a focal point.

1. Mount the lens on the camera by turning the lens clockwise. Adjust its position.

2. When using an auto-iris lens with an EE amplifier, turn the switch to the "VIDEO" side. When no EE amplifier is equipped, turn the switch to the "DC" side.

3. If the lens has an auto-iris mechanism, connect the lens cable after checking the pin arrangement.

If the lens cable has a different type of plug, use the 4-P plug supplied.

Attached 4 pin plugs

Lens Pin No. (does not contain EE amplifier) (contain EE amplifier)
1 Brake	⊖		9V [max 50mA]
2 Brake	⊕		NC
3	D ⊕ r i		VIDEO e
4	D ⊖ r i		GND e

Installing the ferrite core

To retain electromagnetic compatibility, use the ferrite cores provided when connecting to the lens.

Notes:

• Install the ferrite cores within 50 mm of the camera-side connectors. (Fasten the ferrite core with the wire clamp provided.)
- If the LENS cable is short, please connect the cable to the camera without winding the cable around the ferrite core.

Connections on the back

■ Power supply

TK-C1430E (DC 12 V or AC 24V)

Connect the DC 12 V or the AC 24 V power supply to the DC 12V/AC 24V terminals. To prevent connection errors or a cable disconnection, we recommend the use of lug plates for the connections.

The following table shows the connection distances and connection cables provided that 2-conductor VVF cables (vinyl-insulated vinyl sheath cables) are used.

Maximum extension (reference)	100 m	260 m	410 m	500 m
Conductor diameter	1.0 mm and more	1.6 mm and more	2.0 mm and more	2.6 mm and more

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 contact 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: Isolated power supply only

TK-C1431EG (AC220V - 240V)

■ Control signal cables

These cables should be connected only when it is required to control the camera using the RS-442A or RS-485 signals. The use of 0.65 4-conductor twisted pair cables is recommended. With these cables, the maximum extension distance is 1,200 m.

Connect to the other side in pairs like this.

Connect to the other side in pairs like this.

Power cable connect to the commercial AC220V - 240V outlet

CAUTION:

When you use this camera, the socket-outlet shall be installed near equipment so as to disconnect easily.

■ Genlock connection

With some systems, when the external sync signal is a composite video or black burst signal genlocking by applying an external sync input requires the horizontal phase (H PHASE) and colour phase (SC COARSE) to be adjusted.

MEMO

• Genlocking is not possible with a signal containing too much jitter, such as a VCR or videodisc playback signal.
• F or details, consult a JVC authorized dealer.

Mounting the camera

When mounting the camera on a fixer, pan/tilt, etc., use the camera mounting screw hole located on the camera-mounting bracket.

CAUTION:

Use the screw with a length shorter than 7mm from a camera-mounting face.

Furthermore, make use of the rotation prevention hole to prevent the camera from falling and securely mount the camera.

Special precautions must be taken for mounting the camera on a wall or a ceiling. We are not liable for any damage caused by improper installation.

Fall Prevention

• Exercise maximum caution when installing the unit to the wall or ceiling. You should not engage in the installation work yourself. Ask a professional to do the job, since the fall of the unit can result in injuries and accidents.
• When installing the unit on a fixer, Pan/Tilt unit, etc., make sure to install it firmly using a rotation-preventing hole provided to prevent fall.
• To prevent fall, connect the unit to a section with sufficient strength (ceiling slab or channel) using a fall prevention wire such as a wire chain and the like. Use the black screw on the back of the unit for installation.
  Pay utmost attention to the length of the wire, too.
• Specified screw (M3 × 6 mm) Never use any screw longer than the specified length as the inside can be damaged.

Installation of camera

- Mounting from the bottom

This camera is originally designed to be mounted from the bottom, as shown ①. The hole is standard photographic panhead screw size (1/4-20 UNC). Example the Fixing unit or Pan/Tilt unit.

- Mounting from the top

Remove the CAMERA MOUNTING BRACKET from the bottom of the camera by removing two fixing screws as shown ②. Attach the CAMERA MOUNTING BRACKET to the top, then mount the camera on the Fixing Unit as shown ③. Make sure that two original screws are used when mounting the CAMERA MOUNTING BRACKET. Be sure to use a 6 mm long locking screw for the camera-mounting bracket.

(This camera is used indoor and under similar conditions.)

Lens adjustment

Connect the camera according to the connection method, turn it on, display an image on the monitor, and check the image. The camera has been factory-adjusted to the best position, but it may need to be adjusted according to the object conditions or combination of lenses. If the image is unnatural, adjust it as follows: (Also read the instruction manual of the lens.)

LEVEL

ALC adjustment

(Does not operate.)

MEMO

Note that the lens cannot make ALC adjustments. Make ALC adjustments using the item AVERAGE: PEAK on the menu.

( Page 26)

• LEVEL adjustment

Monitor screen	LEVEL turning direction
Too bright Counterclockwise (Toward L)
Too dark Clockwise (Toward H)

MEMO

• If the sensitivity adjustment LEVEL is turned excessively to L, the sensitivity increases because of the AGC function of the camera, and the image looks grainy.
• If the video iris lens is set to too low a level, malfunction such as the hunting phenomenon, in which the iris opens or closes unintentionally, may occur.

In such a case, first set LEVEL potentiometer on the lens to the H (iris open) position then adjust it to the optimum level.

Back focus adjustment

■ Back focus adjustment

Be sure to make back-focus adjustments when changing the lens mounting method or using a different lens. If required, adjust it as follows:

- To make accurate back focus adjustments, use the electronic shutter and the ND filter, and carry out the following adjustments in a state where the lens iris is released. (The ND filter acts to reduce the amount of incident light entering the lens evenly over the entire wavelength band.)

AVERAGE: PEAK		Sets the exposure detection as a ratio of the average value and the peak value.A VERAGE value large: Increase the AVERAGE value when portions other than the highlighted areas of the screen are dark and look corrupted. (Ex. 10:0)PEAK value large: Increase the PEAK value when halation occurs in the highlighted areas of the screen.(Ex. 5:5)[Set values: 10:0, 9:1, 8:2, 7:3, 6:4, 5:5]	8 : 2
Item Functions and set values Initial value
SHUTTER/ExDR	This sets the electronic shutter as well as the ExDR (Extended Dynamic Range).The use of an electronic shutter function enables shooting with proper brightness, as more brightness results in higher shutter speed.The ExDR function allows even the shooting of a subject having different luminous flux density by composing a picture shot at 1/100 sec. shutter speed with a picture shot by a high-speed shutter.NORMAL: This fixes the shutter speed to 1/50.The ExDR does not function.MANUAL: This sets the shutter speed by the item SHUTTER SPEED on the SHUTTER screen.The ExDR does not function.When SENSE UP is functioning, MANUAL cannot be selected. (Not displayed on MENU)AUTO: This automatically switches the shutter speed according to brightness.The ExDR does not function.The item FAST LIMIT on the SHUTTER (ExDR) screen sets a maximum shutter speed value.M.ExDR: This is used when shooting a subject with difference in a luminous flux density in the screen under a fixed illumination condition, and so on. During ExDR mode, the item M.ExDR.SPEED on the SHUTTER (ExDR) screen sets the composing high shutter speed. It is possible to set only when the items BLC and SENSE UP are OFF. What's more, the ExDR LEVEL sets the signal level of the composing high-speed shutter.A.ExDR: This is used when the subjects having different luminous flux densities are continuously used night and day in the situation where both indoor and outdoor subjects are mixed in existence, and so forth. During ExDR mode, the composing shutter speed automatically varies according to the contrast of a subject. This is set when shooting the subject with changing brightness.This can be set only when the item BLC is OFF.What's more, the ExDR LEVEL sets the signal level of the composing high-speed shutter.—MEMODo not set to A.ExDR when using a manual lens.When M.ExDR mode or A.ExDR mode is used, the border between a bright part and a dark part can be coloured (cyan, orange, etc.), but this is not a malfunction.When the SHUTTER/ExDR item is set to M.ExDR or A.ExDR, a flicker can occur under a fluorescent lamp, mercury lamp, etc. However, this occurs by principle of the ExDR function, and therefore this is not a malfunction.		NORMAL
* When the SHUTTER (ExDR) item is set to NORMAL, the following items (SHUTTER SPEED, FAST LIMIT, ExDR LEVEL, and M.ExDR SPEED) cannot be changed.
SHUTTER SPEED	This sets a shutter speed when MANUAL is set.The AUTO, M. ExDR, A. ExDR set value is displayed as “- - -” and cannot be changed[Set values: 1/120, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000, 1/2000, 1/4000, and 1/10000]	1/120
Item Functions and set values Initial value
	FAST LIMIT	This sets the fastest value of a shutter speed when AUTO is set.The MANUAL, M. ExDR, A. ExDR set value is displayed as “- - -” and cannot be changed. The higher the shutter speed becomes, the more smear phenomenon is emphasized, which is peculiar to the CCD.[Set values: 1/1000, 1/2000, 1/4000, 1/10000, 1/20000, 1/40000, 1/100000]	1/100000
	ExDR LEVEL	This sets the signal level of the composing high-speed shutter during ExDR mode. This is set according to the brightness of a subject.When using M.ExDR, be sure to set M.ExDR SPEED in advance.When the SHUTTER/ExDR item is set to MANUAL or AUTO, “- - -” appears, disabling setting.To give priority to the low-brightness parts of the subject... increase the valueTo give priority to the high-brightness parts of the subject... decrease the value[Set values: -5 to NORMAL to 5]——MEMO——In the case of a subject with a large difference in the luminous flux density, sometimes images do not change even if ExDR LEVEL is varied. However, this occurrence is a peculiarity of the unit and is not a malfunction.	NORMAL
	M.ExDR SPEED	This sets the composing high shutter speed when ExDR is set to M.ExDR.Set the shutter speed in order that a subject with a high luminous flux density (outdoor, etc.) may come out most clearly. This is displayed as “- - -” during MANUAL, AUTO or A. ExDR and cannot be set.[Set values: 1/500, 1/1000, 1/2000, 1/4000, 1/10000, 1/20000]	1/4000
AGC MODE		This sets a maximum gain of the AGC (Automatic Gain Control).OFF: When the AGC function is not used.10dB: When luminous energy is insufficient.20dB: When luminous energy is extremely insufficient.SUPER: When brightness is insufficient even when it is set to 20dB.If the gain is increased, the screen gets rough in a dark place.If it is set to SUPER, it can sometimes consume operation time to cope with a drastic level change.When the item “B&W” is set to “AUTO”, [SUPER] is displayed when the item “AGC MODE” is set to “SUPER”, and [20dB] is displayed for other settings. Increase the gain up to the value displayed.	20dB
LOLUX MODE		Used when brightness is low even when setting the AGC MODE.(Functions regardless of the AGC MODE setting.)OFF: LOLUX MODE is offON: LOLUX MODE is on (+ 6dB)	OFF
SENSE UP		This item makes up a sensitivity should be heightened automatically when a subject becomes dark.In case of the X32 AUTO, the sensitivity is automatically heightened up to 32 times continuously as compared with standard.As the sensitivity becomes higher, the shutter speed becomes lower, resulting in unnatural motion.If SHUTTER/ExDR is set to MANUAL or the M.ExDR, “- - -” will appear, disabling the SENSE UP function.[Set values: OFF, X2 AUTO, X4 AUTO, X8 AUTO, X16 AUTO, X32 AUTO]——MEMO——When the magnification of SENSE UP is enhanced, the screen can become coarse or whitish, or whitish flaws can emerge sometimes, but this is not abnormal.When the item SENSE UP is set other than to OFF, a flicker can occur under a fluorescent lamp, mercury lamp, etc. However, this occurs by principle of SENSE UP, and therefore this is not a malfunction.	OFF
PRIORITY		This item sets the order in which the AGC and slow shutter speed decrease function when the object brightness becomes low.If B&W item of the B&W/COLOUR mode is set to AUTO, and the AGC MODE item or the SENSE UP item is set to OFF, “- - -” will appear, disabling any setting.MOTION: Priority is given to motion.This is suitable to a subject with quick motion, since the AGC (automatic gain control) functions with priority when the subject becomes dark.PICTURE: Priority is given to image.When the subject becomes dark, SENSE UP (sensitivity goes up) functions with priority, offering suitability that gives priority to image.	MOTION
BLC		Sets the backlight compensation function. Set when a bright light source, etc. is placed in the same direction as the subject.If the item SHUTTER/ExDR is set to the M.ExDR or the A.ExDR, “- - -” will appear, and the BLC does not function.OFF: The backlight compensation function does not work.AREA 1 to AREA 4: When the SET button is pressed, the fixed light metering areas are displayed.

B&W		Switches the mode from colour to B&W and visa-versa.OFF:Turns the B&W mode switching function off.ON:Sets the camera permanently to B&W mode.AUTO:The camera automatically switches to Colour mode when the object is bright and B&W mode when it is dark.(Page 40)AUX:B&W/COLOUR switching is carried out according to the signal input from the AUX terminal.(Page 41)—MEMOIf AUTO is selected as the B&W item, the B&W/COLOUR setting can be switched as appropriate according to the brightness of the object, but illumination and screen conditions may make this impossible. Moreover, when you use infrared illumination, if the subject excessively reflects, a B/W screen can switch to a colour screen. To make absolutely certain of B&W/COLOUR switching, set to AUX and input the control signal to the AUX terminal.If AUX is selected as the B&W item, the AUX TERMINAL item is automatically set to B&W IN. If this changes to anything other than AUX, the AUX TERMINAL item reverts to the value set before the change was made.(Page 33.)	AUX
AUTO LEVEL		When the “B&W” function is set to “AUTO”, this function sets the signal level of the object at which the camera will automatically switch to B&W mode.LOW:Switches to B&W mode when the signal level of the object indicates low illumination.NORMAL:Switches to B&W mode when the signal level of the object indicates medium illumination.HIGH:Switches to B&W mode when the signal level of the object indicates high illumination.—MEMOWhen the item “B&W” is set to other than AUTO, “- - -” is displayed and the settings to the item “LEVEL” cannot be varied.
