1. CAUTIONS ON USE AND INSTALLATION
•On installation, observe the following matters:
-Do not block the radiation fan's holes.
-Do not place cloth including a tablecloth over the fan.
-Do not place the camera on the carpet or cushion.
-Dot place the camera into a confined small room susceptible to heat generation. Doing this would raise the internal temperature causing the fire.
•Carefully handle the units
Do not drop, or give a strong shock or vibration to the camera. This may cause problems. Treat the camera cables carefully to prevent problems, such as cable breakdown.
•Do not shoot intense light
If there is an intense light at a location on the screen such as a spot light, blooming* 1 and smearing*2 may occur. When intense light enters, vertical stripes may appear on the screen. This is not a malfunction. Ghosts may occur when there is an intense light near the object. In this case, change the shooting angle.
•Install the camera in a location free from noise
If the camera or the cables are located near power utility lines such as TV, or PC related equipments, undesirable noise may appear on the screen. In such case, try to change the location or the cable wiring. If equipment originating radio waves, such as cell phone, comes close to the camera, or the camera is installed near the relay antenna of such equipment, noise may appear on the screen.
•Moire
When thin stripe patterns are shot, stripe patterns that are not actually there (moire) may appear as interference stripes. This is not a malfunction.
•Operating ambient temperature and humidity
The operating ambient temperature ranges from 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F) with humidity from 30% to 90%, Do not use the camera in places where the temperature and humidity are beyond the specified range. Picture quality will decrease and internal damage may occur.
•Be particularly careful when using places where temperature and humidity are high. When continuously shooting in hot places for a long time, the life of the camera will be shortened due to deterioration of parts.
•Outdoor installation
When using the camera outdoors, be sure to install the camera in a properly insulated enclosure. For details, contact your nearest dealer.
•Prolonged non operation of the camera
If the camera is not used for a prolonged amount of time, disconnect the power supply.
*1: Blooming is a phenomenon where blur occurs around intense light.
*2: Smearing is a phenomenon where vertical stripes appear in the upper and lower areas of intense light.
