DESCRIPTION

The EX14 All Environment Camera consists of a two-piece injection molded watertight housing with a tough polycarbonate viewing window. This compact camera meets IP66 ratings for applications wherever environmentally sealed CCD cameras are required. The camera is especially suited for wash down applications in food processing and industrial clean-room installations.

The EX14 can be ordered in monochrome or color versions, featuring varifocal and auto-iris IR-optimized lenses. A rigid nylon mounting bracket is also included with the camera.

A voltage regulator circuit allows for 12V dc or 24V ac operation and a range in between. It also provides protection from voltage surge, transient spikes, and reverse voltage.

The EX14N comes with integrated Infra-Red illumination to permit imaging in 0 Lux conditions

The EX14 is available in several models to meet individual requirements or specific needs.

UNPACKING

Care should be taken when unpacking the shipped unit. Check the parts list and confirm all items have been located. Inspect the equipment thoroughly to ensure nothing was damaged in transit.

Contact BOSCH Service Center if a problem is noted, see the rear page of this booklet for contact numbers.

PARTS LIST (items supplied with unit)

• EX14 Camera or EX14N integrated infraRed
- Two Allen Keys
• One Mounting Bolt
- Nylon Mounting Bracket(supplied with camera)
• Installation Instructions booklet

ITEMS REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION

(not supplied with unit)

- mounting hardware & tools

INITIAL PREPARATIONS

• The camera's voltage regulator board (VRB) accepts an input voltage of either 12Vdc or 24Vac, and a range in-between, from a regulated power supply.
• The VRB automatically switches between ac or dc inputs, therefore no internal wiring changes are necessary to accommodate these input voltages.
• Determine the optimum location for the camera.
  Section 1: Camera Mounting
• All cameras have been tested prior to shipment.

GUIDELINES

The installation of the EX14 Camera is shown in Sections 1 to 4 listed below.

It is important that these steps are followed in sequence:

1. Camera Mounting
2. Camera I/O Connections
3. Input Power Connections
4. Camera/LED Array Adjustments

1. CAMERA MOUNTING

Caution: Install the mounting bracket with the appropriate screws or drywall anchors to suit the mounting surface. Select a suitable location that is protected from accidental damage or tampering, and environmental conditions that could exceed the camera's general specifications.

See page 18.

Caution: Ensure the selected location is protected from falling objects, accidental contact with moving objects, and unintentional interference from personnel. Follow all applicable building codes.

The following installation guidelines must be followed:

• Locate the camera such that it cannot be easily interfered with, either intentionally or accidentally.
• Select a mounting surface capable of supporting the combined weight of the camera and its mounting hardware under all expected conditions of vibration and temperature.
• Secure all cabling.

FIGURE 1 – 1 Camera and Bracket – Mounting Details

Warning: this apparatus must be securely attached to the wall or ceiling in accordance with installation instructions. Failure to follow installation instructions may results in injury/death.

Select a suitable location that protects the camera from accidental damage, tampering and environmental conditions exceeding the specifications of the camera to be mounted.

Caution: Ensure the selected location is protected from falling objects, accidental contact with moving objects and unintentional interference from personnel. Follow all applicable building codes.

The following installation guidelines must be followed:

• Locate the bracket such that it cannot be easily interfered with, either intentionally or accidentally.
• Select a smooth, flat mounting surface to ensure proper sealing. The surface must also be capable of supporting the combined weight of the camera and mounting hardware under all expected conditions of vibration and temperature.
• Secure all cabling.
  • Installation should only be performed by skilled personnel

Mounting instructions for wall and ceiling mount:

Camera is intended to be securely mounted to a wall using the mounting bracket supplied with the enclosure. Camera has been evaluated for wall mounting using the following wood screws secured into a 2x4 stud under 12 drywall. Wood screws:

• wood screws with washer, #10, 2" long
• flat washer.

Camera has not been evaluated for safety requirements using other mounting kits.

Installation (Wall Mount)

• Locate stud in the wall and mark outside edges of stud.

• Using wall mount bracket as a template, align the mounting hole with the center of the stud.

• Marking the point on the wall in the center of the hole where mounting screw will be positioned.

• Remove the wall mount bracket and using a 5/32" drill bit, drill a pilot hole at the marked point.
• Align the ceiling/wall mount bracket mounting hole with the hole drilled in the ceiling/wall
• Using a socket and driver, secure the ceiling/wall mount bracket by screwing the #10 screw with washer securely into the stud.
• Use second #10 screw and washer to secure the remaining mounting holes.
• Installation is complete.

2. CAMERA I/O CONNECTIONS

Connect the Power Input (ac or dc) to the camera as shown below. Wires are not polarity dependent. Connect the Video Out BNC connector to a monitor.

Figure 2 – 1 Camera I/O Connections

3. INPUT POWER CONNECTIONS

The camera unit is pre-connected with an electrically isolated power board for 24Vac or 12V dc operation with no wiring change or wiring polarity. See Figure 3-1.

Note:

Input voltage is 12VDC to 24VDC for DC input. The AC input range is 12VAC to 24VAC.

4. CAMERA/ LED ARRAY ADJUSTMENTS

Focus and Zoom Adjustments

Loosen and tilt back the camera's top cover to access the lens for adjustment.

Step 3.1 - Loosen the lens setscrews

for focus/zoom adjustments.

See Figure 4-1 on page 13.

Step 3.2 - The setscrew for N is used for image focus.

Step 3.3 - The setscrew for T W

is used for telephoto or wide-angle settings.

Step 3.4 - Re-tighten the setscrews after focus adjustments have been completed.

The LED Array brightness has been set at the factory before shipment.

For photocell brightness adjustment refer to

Figure 3-2 on page 11.

Loosen this set-screw for Focus Adjustment

Loosen this set-screw for Telephoto or Wide Angle Adjustment

FIGURE 4 - 1

Focus and Zoom Adjustments

Use a Neutral Density filter or Infra-Red Pass filter to cover the lens during focusing to simulate low light conditions on scene for correct 24-hour focusing. For camera with vari-focal lens, the camera should be focused with the lens iris fully opened to simulate the worst possible depth of field. Using a Neutral Density filter or Infra-Red Pass filter will ensure the iris is fully open for correct setup and adjustment.

Note that statement above is applicable only for Day/Night or IR version cameras.

5. TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

PROBLEM	POSSIBLE CAUSE	LIKELY SOLUTION
No Video 1.	Power Supply:-Connections....-Voltage Range...	Check input power connections at the cable leads.Check for loose wires.If connected to DC, check input voltage range of 12 – 24V.If connected to AC, check input voltage range of 12 – 24V.Measure the voltage and current at the Input Power Cable.The current should be >.02A and <1.0A.
No Video (cont'd.)	2. Video Connections	Determine if wiring polarity at “Video Connector” terminal block is correct. Check the cable and BNC connector.If still no video, connect the camera directly to the monitor. Check the video signal. If okay, the problem is with the interconnections. If still no video, contact BOSCH Service Center. See rear page of this manual for contact information.
Poor Picture Snowy Image	Poor Video Signal16	Ensure the video cable is correctly matched and terminated with 75 ohms at each end. Make sure the video cables are similar types.
Poor Picture
Snowy Image (cont'd.)	Noisy Power Supply	Check connections. Relocate or replace the power supply.
Horizontal Scan Lines, Rolling Up or Down	Ground Looping on video cable	Check the coax cable shield is not touching ground, e.g. at couplings. Check video polarity.
Negative, scrambled, or faded image	Low voltage	Check voltage at the input power cable. Must be >10.5V dc or >12V ac.
