Introduction

Operating Precautions

Storage and Location of Use

This camera has been designed for indoor use. When you use it outdoors, be sure to use a housing or the like.

Do not install or use the camera in the following places.

●In a place exposed to rain or moisture.

●In a place with vapor or oil, for example in a kitchen.

●When the ambient temperature rises above or falls below the acceptable range (from -10 I to 50 I)

●In a place at which corrosive gases are emitted.

●Near a source of radiation, X-rays, strong radio waves or magnetism.

●In a place subject to vibration.

●In a place with excessive dirt.

Using this unit or cables connected to this unit at places at which strong radio waves and magnetism are emitted (e.g. near a radio, TV, transformer or motor) may give rise to noises in the image and changes in its color.

Maintenance

Turn off the power before performing maintenance.

Clean the camera with a soft cloth. Wiping it with thinner or benzene may melt the surface or cause it to fog. For tough stains, wipe using a cloth that is dipped into a neutral detergent diluted with water, followed by wiping with a dry cloth.

Energy Conservation

When the camera is not in use for a long time, turn off the power of the system for safety and energy conservation reasons.

: Only for TK-C1530U/E and TK-C1531EG

Others

This camera comes with a built-in AGC circuit. The sensitivity increases automatically at a dark place and the screen may appear grainy. This is not a malfunction.

While the AGC is activated, if a transceiver which causes strong electromagnetic wave is used near the camera, the picture may suffer from beat.

Please use the camera more than five meters from such transceivers.

You may hear some noise during power on and when the screen is switched between the color and the black and white mode, because of the movement of the optical filter switching motor. Also, the image will be somewhat distorted.

The beat may sometimes appear on the screen if gain is raised when the line lock is in use, but the phenomenon takes place due to the fluctuation of power frequency and is not a malfunction.

When the COLOR OVERLAY is turned AONB, there may be an increase in the color noises or changes in the colors. When such symptoms occur or when infrared illumination is used, set COLOR OVERLAY to AOFFB (black and white).

When this camera is used in the White Balance ATW (automatic tracking) mode, the color tone may differ slightly from the actual color due to the principle of the automatic tracking white balance circuit. This is not a malfunction.

If a high brightness object (such as a lamp) is shot, the image on the screen may have white vertical tailings. This is a characteristic of the CCD known as the smear phenomenon and is not a malfunction.

When a high brightness object is shot, sometimes undulations can be observed on the vertical lines of the object. However, this phenomenon is peculiar to the camera and is not a malfunction.

Caution for operating the VIDEO IRIS lens

If the LEVEL dial of the VIDEO IRIS lens is set to a low level (L position), a malfunction - such as the hunting phenomenon where the iris opens and closes involuntarily - can occur. In such a case, first set the LEVEL dial on the lens to the H position, and then adjust it to an optimum level while checking the video signal.

The cable stopper on the terminal block can come off sometimes. Therefore, be sure to take enough time and fix the cable securely.

This camera achieves optical performance by using specified lens (1/3 inch size) conformed to CCD size. However, some general lens may not meet this specification (effective image circle is small or optic displacement is big). When such lens are used, negative effects such as shading may occur.

TK-C925U, TK-C925E, TK-C1530E, TK-C1531EG, TK-C1530U specifications

JVC has built a strong reputation for its advanced camera technologies, particularly in surveillance and monitoring applications. Among its extensive range, the models TK-C926EG, TK-C1530U, TK-C1531EG, TK-C1530E, and TK-C925E stand out for their impressive features and capabilities.

The TK-C926EG is well-regarded for its compact design and remarkable low-light performance, making it suitable for various environments. This camera utilizes a 1/3-inch color CCD sensor that ensures high sensitivity and accurate color reproduction, even in challenging lighting conditions. It offers a resolution of 540 TV lines, providing clear and detailed images. Additionally, the camera supports a wide range of lens options, enhancing its versatility for different installations.

In contrast, the TK-C1530U and TK-C1531EG share similar core features but cater to slightly different needs. Both models boast a 1/3-inch CCD sensor and an impressive horizontal resolution of 600 TV lines, which guarantees high-quality video outputs. The TK-C1530U is especially recognized for its robust design, making it ideal for outdoor applications. Meanwhile, the TK-C1531EG offers advanced features including dynamic backlight compensation, which enhances visibility in high-contrast scenes – a crucial technology for effective surveillance.

The TK-C1530E, on the other hand, is an essential choice for various surveillance needs, especially in retail and commercial settings. Like its counterparts, it features a 1/3-inch CCD sensor but excels in its ability to adapt to varying light conditions with its automatic gain control and electronic shutter capabilities. This adaptability is important for maintaining clarity during transitions from bright environments to darker areas.
