Introduction

Precautions for proper use of this product

Storage and Location of Use

Do not install this unit at the following locations.

●Places that are exposed to vapor or oil, such as kitchens.

●Places that exceed the ambient temperature (-10 I to 50 I)

●Places at which corrosive gases are emitted

●Places at which radiation or X-rays and strong radio waves or magnetism are emitted

●Places that are subject to vibration

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.

Do not install this unit at a place that is directly exposed to cold air or near the outlet of an air-conditioner. The dome cover may become foggy when there is a drastic change in temperature.

Although this unit is IP66-compliant, water- proof under all kinds of environment is not guaranteed.

Others

This unit comes with a built-in AGC circuit. When using this unit with the AGC function turned on, the sensitivity increases automatically at a dark place and the screen may appear grainy. This is not a malfunction.

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

When shooting an object with high brightness (lamps, etc.), vertical lines may appear in the image on the screen (smear phenomenon) and bleeding may be found around the high brightness object (blooming phenomenon). These are due to the characteristics of the CCD and not malfunctions.

Turning “ON” the simple DAY & NIGHT switch switches the image to black-and-white at a dark place. Sensitivity increases in the case of black-and-white images. The screen may

therefore appear grainy and white spots may increase. When switching between colored and black-and-white images, the bright portions of the screen are enhanced and the clarity of the screen may deteriorate. This is not a malfunction.

When the source voltage cuts off or drops during lightning or upon turning on the air- conditioner, distortion or noise may occur in the image.

When this unit is moved from a cold to a warm place, dew condensation may occur, which may result in malfunctioning. In this case, leave this unit at room temperature for about 1 hour before turning on the power.

The rotation angle of this unit has been enlarged to enable installation at a wide variety of locations. When the zoom function of the lens is set to Wide and the tilt angle set close to ±70°, a portion of this unit may be visible on the shooting screen depending on the rotation angle.

When this occurs, adjust the angle of view accordingly. (A Pg. 22)

To prevent fogging due to changes in temperature, make sure to insert the supplied silica gel into the designated location.

(A Pg. 21)

When the supply voltage of the camera is low, the input protection circuit within the camera may be triggered and the power of the camera may turn off automatically. Make sure to use a power supply and voltage for the camera that is within -10 % of the rated voltage.

All Interconnecting Equipment must be UL Listed.

Maintenance

Turn off the power before performing maintenance.

Clean the dome cover using a lens cleaning cloth (or 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 not in use, turn off the power of the system to save energy.

TK-C215VP12, TK-C215VP4 specifications

The JVC TK-C215VP4 and TK-C215VP12 are advanced surveillance cameras designed specifically for effective security monitoring and video surveillance. They are part of JVC's commitment to delivering high-performance video solutions tailored for a range of applications, from retail environments to transportation hubs.

One of the standout features of both models is their exceptional image quality. Utilizing a 1/3-inch CCD image sensor, these cameras provide sharp and detailed video in various lighting conditions. Their impressive resolution capabilities ensure that you can capture clear images, making it easier to identify subjects even in complex surveillance scenarios.

The TK-C215VP4 and TK-C215VP12 are equipped with advanced digital signal processing technology, which enhances the overall image performance, providing improved clarity and reducing noise. This is particularly beneficial in low-light situations, where the cameras excel thanks to their low-light sensitivity ratings. Users can expect reliable performance even in challenging lighting environments, ensuring that security personnel do not miss critical activities.

Another notable feature of these models is their versatility in terms of installation. Both cameras support a range of mounting options, making them suitable for various settings, including indoor and outdoor environments. This flexibility allows for seamless integration into existing security systems.

The TK-C215VP4 features a motorized vari-focal lens that provides an adjustable focal length, allowing users to customize the field of view according to their specific surveillance needs. This capability is particularly useful for monitoring larger areas or areas where subjects may be at varying distances.

On the other hand, the TK-C215VP12 model boasts a fixed lens design, which is ideal for situations where a defined field of view is required. This makes it a perfect choice for more controlled installations where the monitoring area can be predetermined.

Both models also include robust connectivity options, supporting various output formats that ensure compatibility with a wide range of video management systems. Additionally, the cameras are designed with user-friendly controls, enabling easy adjustments to settings without the need for extensive technical knowledge.

In summary, the JVC TK-C215VP4 and TK-C215VP12 represent a blend of cutting-edge technology, superior image quality, and practical design, making them reliable choices for any security surveillance application. Their advanced features cater to a variety of user requirements, ensuring effective monitoring while enhancing the overall security posture.
