Operating Instructions
Model No. WV-CP250
WV-CP254E
1. | Do not attempt to disassemble the camera. |
| To prevent electric shock, do not remove |
| screws or covers. |
| There are no user serviceable parts inside. |
| Ask a qualified service person for servicing. |
2. | Handle the camera with care. |
| Do not abuse the camera. Avoid striking, |
| shaking, etc. The camera could be damaged |
| by improper handling or storage. |
3. | Do not expose the camera to rain or mois- |
| ture, or try to operate it in wet areas. |
| Turn the power off immediately and ask a |
| qualified service person for servicing. |
| Moisture can damage the camera and also |
| create the danger of electric shock. |
4. | Do not use strong or abrasive detergents |
| when cleaning the camera body. |
5. Clean the CCD faceplate with care. |
Do not clean the CCD with strong or abrasive |
detergents. Use lens tissue or a cotton tipped |
applicator and ethanol. |
6. Never face the camera towards the sun. |
Do not aim the camera at bright objects. |
Whether the camera is in use or not, never |
aim it at the sun or other extremely bright |
objects. Otherwise, blooming or smear may |
be caused. |
7. Do not operate the camera beyond the |
specified temperature, humidity or power |
source ratings. |
Use the camera under conditions where tem- |
perature is between –10 °C - +50 °C (14 °F - |
122 °F), and humidity is below 90 %. The |
input power source is 220 V - 240 V AC 50 Hz |
for WV-CP250, and 24 V AC 50 Hz or 12 V |
tures from colour to black and white in low light conditions.
COLOUR FIX: Colour picture reverts to black-and-white picture when an exter- nal day/night switching signal is received (refer to Day/Night connec- tions).
Note: When using this unit with infrared rays or lighting of which colour temperature is 3 000 K or less, select this mode without fail, and short-circuit the Day/Night input terminals if you select the black-and- white picture.
(The AUTO mode may cause hunting.) AUTO: The camera selects black-and-white
mode if the picture is dark, or colour mode if the picture is bright enough.
Notes:
• When using this unit with a video servo |
control lens, you may not switch from the |
black-and-white mode to the colour |
HI: Colour picture switches to black-and- white pictures at approx. 7 lx with F1.2 lens.
LOW: Colour picture switches to black-and- white pictures at approx. 5 lx with F1.2 lens.
The factory default setting is HI.
!5Video Output Connector (VIDEO OUT)
This connector is for connecting with the VIDEO IN connector of the video monitor. Whenever the multiplexed vertical drive (VD2) signal is supplied to this connector, the cam- era synchronization mode is automatically set to Vertical Drive.

nal processing colour CCD cameras introduce a | (picture elements), and digital signal processing |
new level of high picture quality and high resolu- | LSI’s. This model offers cutting-edge technology |

FEATURES
mounting the camera onto a mounting brack- |
et. The camera is originally designed to be |
mounted from the bottom, however, a top- |
mounting type is also available. To mount |
from the top, remove the mount adapter from |
the bottom of the camera by removing two |
fixing screws. Attach the mount adapter to |
the top as shown in the diagram, then mount |
the camera on the mounting bracket. Make |
sure that two original screws are used when |
mounting the mount adapter; longer type |
screws may damage inner components, too |
shorter type screws may cause the camera |
drop. |

Mounting the Lens
Caution:
Before you mount the lens, loosen the focus lock knob, and rotate it clockwise until it stops. If the ring is not at the end, the inner lens or CCD image sensor may be damaged.
