General
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Remedy |
| The picture does not appear on the screen of your computer. | Make sure the connections are made correctly.Test the Color Video Camera by connecting it to other equipment such as a TV or video deck. |
| The picture quality obtained from a Color Video Camera connected to a computer is not good as that from a Color Video Camera connected to a TV. | Depending on your computer or video capture board, you may not be able to obtain the same picture quality as that of a TV. Consult your computer manufacturer or dealer for details. |
| Symptom | Remedy |
| The unit cannot be operated when a button on the Remote Commander is pressed. | Press the CAMERA SELECT button whose number is the same as the number to which the IR SELECT switch of the camera is set.Replace the batteries of the Remote Commander with new ones.Plug in the power cord to an AC outlet. |
| The unit cannot be operated at all. | Pull out the plug of the power cord from the AC outlet, then reinsert it into the AC outlet after a while. If you still cannot operate the unit, set the BACKUP switch (at the rear of the main unit) to OFF and disconnect and reconnect the power cord from the AC outlet. (Note that the settings will be erased when the BACKUP switch is set to OFF.) |
Precautions
After operating the unit with an AC power adaptor, disconnect the AC power adaptor from the wall outlet if the set is not to be used for an extended period of time.
Brightness of a Subject
Color Video Camera might not work at its best in a place where the brightness exceeds the illumination range (such as a place exposed to direct sunlight).
Avoid Specialized Application
- Do not shoot an extremely bright object such as sunlight or a lamp.
- Do not use the camera around a facility which transmits powerful radio waves such as a TV or radio transmitter.
- Do not use the camera under unstable lighting conditions. Otherwise, screen flickering may occur.
Precaution on Copyright
Television programs, pictures, magazines, and other materials may be copyrighted. Unauthorized recording or storing of such materials violates the provision of the copyright laws.
About Backup
Settings such as the camera position are erased when you disconnect the power cord or turn the camera off. To retain those settings, set the BACKUP switch, at the rear of the camera, to ON.

Notes
- In this unit, the built-in lithium battery acts as the power source for retaining the settings and it is kept charged as long as the unit is used. If the unit is used for shorter periods of time with the BACKUP switch set to ON, however, the battery is gradually discharged. If you do not use the unit at all for almost one year, the battery is completely discharged. To retain the settings, you should recharge the battery.
- To recharge the battery, plug in the unit to an AC outlet using the AC power adaptor and the power cord and leave it for approximately 48 hours.
When You Discard Color Video Camera
For environmental reasons, take out the lithium battery from the camera and discard it appropriately.
1 Hold the lower part of the pan cabinet (side) with your fingers, and pull it up while stretching it until it comes off.

2 While holding both sides of the pan cabinet (front) tight, pull it toward the front. Then, remove the two screws ④ using a Phillips screw driver and detach the pan cabinet (rear).

3 Remove the two screws ① and detach the cover of the sensor for the Remote Commander.

4 Remove the two screws ① and turn the camera head down, then pull the base cabinet up until it comes off.

5 Hold the board on which the lithium battery is attached using long-nose pliers. Then, bend it in the direction of the arrow illustrated below to detach the battery.

Clean dirt and soil from the cover with a soft cloth or tissue paper.
Cleaning the main unit
- When the body of the camera is dirty, clean it with a soft cloth that is soaked with a diluted neutral detergent and tightly wrung. Then finish with a dry cloth.
- Do not use any type of solvents, which may damage the finish.
- When you use a chemical cloth, follow its instructions.
- Do not sprinkle volatile matter such as pesticide over your Color Video Camera nor allow rubber or vinyl to come in contact with the Color Video Camera for a long period of time. Doing so may damage the finish.
Replacing the batteries of the Remote Commander
If the Remote Commander does not operate from a long distance, the batteries may be worn out. Replace the batteries with new ones (AA × 2).
