Frequently Asked Questions - WVBP50 PANASONIC

How to install the WVBP50 camera?

Attach the mounting bracket to the wall or ceiling with appropriate screws. Mount the camera on the panning head, then connect the coaxial cable between the camera and video monitor. Ensure the power is off when connecting.

What types of lenses can I use?

The camera accepts CS mount lenses. To use a C mount lens, the intermediate adapter WV-AD20 is required. The lens weight must not exceed 450 g.

What do the ALC, ELC, and NC modes on the lens selector mean?

ALC: for auto iris lens. ELC: for fixed aperture or manual iris lens. NC: not connected (free). Select the mode according to the lens type mounted.

How to adjust backlight compensation (BLC)?

Use the BLC ON/OFF switch. Select ON if the background is very bright (e.g., spotlight), OFF for normal display. The setting depends on the lens type: use the upper switch for an ALC lens, the lower switch for a fixed iris lens.

What is the camera resolution?

Horizontal resolution is 380 lines.

How to clean the sensor or lens?

Clean the cabinet with a dry cloth. For the sensor (DTC device), use special lens cleaning sheets for cameras or a cotton swab moistened with ethanol. Never use abrasive products.

Why not point the camera at the sun?

Pointing the camera at the sun may cause smear or blooming of images, even if turned off. This can damage the sensor.

What coaxial cable to use and what is the maximum distance?

Use a coaxial cable type RG-59/U (max 200 m) or RG-6/U (max 500 m). The DC resistance between the camera and monitor must not exceed 20 Ω.

How to power the camera?

Power is supplied by the video monitor or specified control unit (WV-PS11B or WV-PS104C) via the coaxial cable. Ensure to turn off the power before any connection.

What to do if the image is blurry?

Check the back focus adjustment: loosen the adjustment ring screws, turn the ring to get a clear image, then tighten the screws. If the lens is removed, follow the reinstallation procedure with the ring at the stop.

5. Clean the CCD faceplate with care. Do not clean the CCD with strong or abrasive detergents. Use lens tissue or a cotton tipped applicator and ethanol.

6. Never face the camera towards the sun. Do not aim the camera at bright objects. Whether the camera is in use or not, never aim it at the sun or other extremely bright objects. Otherwise, blooming or smear may be caused.

7. Do not operate the camera beyond the specified temperature, humidity or power source ratings.

Use the camera under conditions where temperature is between -10^ + 50^ 14^- 122^) , and humidity is below 90%

MAJOR OPERATING CONTROLS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS

① Camera Mounting Bracket

Install on the wall or ceiling. See INSTALLING PROCEDURE below.

② Pan Fixing Ring

Tighten after adjusting the pan angle.

Pan Head

Attach the camera on this.

Auto Iris Lens Connector

Supplies power and DC control signals to an auto Iris lens (not supplied).

(5) Flange-back Adjusting Ring

This ring adjusts the back-focal distance or picture focus.

6 Lens (option)

Camera Mounting Adapter

There is a hole for mounting the camera onto a mounting bracket. The camera is originally designed to be mounted from the bottom, but a top-mounting type is also available. To mount from the top, remove the mount adapter from the bottom of the camera by removing two fixing screws. Attach the mount adapter to the top as shown in the diagram, then mount the camera on the mounting bracket. Make sure that two original screws are used when mounting the mount adapter; longer type screws may damage inner components.

Lens Selector

Detach the cover from the camera and select the mode according to the lens type that is mounted on this camera.

ALC: Select this mode when an auto iris lens (ALC lens) is mounted on this camera.

NC: Not used.

ELC: Select this mode when a fixed iris lens or manual iris lens is mounted on this camera.

Coaxial Cable Connector

Connect a coaxial cable (to be procured locally) between this connector and the CAMERA IN connector of the specific monitor (or Camera Drive Unit).

Monitor supplies power to the camera, and the camera supplies the video output to the monitor through the coaxial cable.

10 Bear Cover

The rear cover can be removed to gain access to the switches.

Back Light Compensation Mode Selector (BLC ON, OFF)

Select the mode according to the position of the object and light conditions.

When the ALC lens is mounted on this camera, select the mode with upper selector. When the fixed iris or manual iris lens is mounted, select with the lower selector.

ON: Select this mode when a strong light such as a spotlight is in the background.

OFF: Normal picture.

CONNECTIONS

Caution: Keep the POWER switch of the specified monitor, Camera Extension Unit and Camera Drive Unit in OFF position during connections. If the power of these units are ON during connections, the camera does not function due to protect circuit from misconnection.

Basic System

Connect the single coaxial cables between the Camera and Camera Input Terminal of Specified monitor or Camera Drive Unit. The approx. maximum cable length is as:

Coaxial Maximum DC R/1 000 ft. Cable Cable of Inner Type Length Conductor

RG-59/U 200 m (660 ft) Less than 30Ω RG-6/U 500 m (1 650 ft) Less than 12Ω

The maximum DC resistance between the camera and these units is 20Ω.

Caution for Mounting the Lens

The lens mount should be a C-mount or CS-mount (1"32UN) and the lens weight should be less than 450g (0.99 lbs). If the lens is heavier, both the lens and camera should be secured by using the supporter.

The protrusion at the rear of the lens should be as shown in the diagram.

Caution: To use the C-mount lens, the Lens Mount Converter (C-mount adapter) WV-AD20 should be used with the camera.

FOCUS OR FLANGE-BACK ADJUSTMENT

The following adjustment should be made by qualified service personnel or system installers.

Loosen the screws on the flange-back adjusting ring.

Turn the flange-back adjusting ring to the desired position.

Caution: Do not rotate the ring counterclockwise by force after it stops. If the ring is rotated by force, the inner lens or CCD image sensor may be damaged.

3 Tighten the screws on the flange-back adjusting ring.
