CONNECTIONS

Power Cord

1. Keep the Power ON/OFF switch of the camera in the OFF position during installation.
2. Connect the Power Cord to a grounded electrical outlet.

Video Cable

Use a 75 Ω coaxial cable (RG-59, RG-59A/U, RG-59B/U, RG-59/U, RG-6/U, or RG-11/U).

1. Up to 10 monitors can be hooked up in this configuration before signal loss occurs. Total cable length should not be longer than 150 meters (500 feet).

2. Wiring Precautions :

Do not bend the coaxial cable into a curve whose radius is smaller than 10 times its diameter. Never staple coaxial cables, not even with circular staples.

Never crush or pinch the cable.

All of the above will change the impedance of the cable and cause poor picture quality.

ADJUSTMENT

Preparations:

Make sure that all required connections in the system are completed.

Turn on the power of this monitor by pressing the Power On/Off Switch on the front panel.

graph TD
    A["BRIGHT CONTRAST"] --> B["increase"]
    B --> C["increase"]

1. If the picture slips to either side, or a series of horizontal lines appear, adjust the Horizontal Hold Control (H.HOLD) until the picture is stabilized.

1. If the picture rolls up or down, adjust the Vertical Hold Control (V.HOLD) until the picture is stabilized.

1. The sub controls, HEIGHT and V. LINEARITY, should be adjusted at the same time to give proper vertical height consistent with good vertical linearity. Extending the picture height approximately 6 mm (1/4") beyond the top and bottom edges of the CRT mask is recommended.

Press the Scan Size Selection Switch (SCAN SIZE) once (switch down_) to set the UNDER position.

Press again (switch up ▲) to NORMAL position.

DC Restoration

DC restoration circuit provides a stable reference for the black level.
