passing under the camera.
Digital Flip Operation
-6-A newly developed 1/4-inch CCD is employed for use
under extremely low light conditions: 0.06 lx for
monochrome and 1 lx for color.
It also assures clear display of pictures in which bright
and dark objects coexist without mutual interference
thanks to Super-Dynamic 
2DSP. Setup menus allow
the camera to fulfill surveillance tasks by such means
as Motion Detector, Digital Flip, Patrol Learn and
Privacy Zones.

Camera Cleaning
Even if this function is used, noise may be produced
on the monitor screen, or the preset position may
deviate in the course of prolonged use.
In such cases, activate the refresh mode on the special
2 menu. (See page 42.)
To use this camera with WJ-SX550C, WJ-SX150 Matrix
Switcher, set the auto cleaning function activated on
the Matrix Switcher side, then clean WV-CS854B once
a day.
Preset Data Uploading or Down-
loading
To download the preset data from the camera to the
controller or upload the downloaded data to the
camera, set the following functions to OFF.Downloading or uploading the data may not work
normally if these functions are set to ON.
•Alarm (see page 31)
•Preset alarm (see page 33)
•Cleaning (see page 32)
•Motion detection (see page 39)
•Auto mode (see page 23)
•Self return (see page 23)
Aim the camera at a motionless object such as a wall,
if possible, to download or upload the preset data.
Note:Take notice of the following when uploading the
downloaded data to the camera.
•Preset positions may vary. If a preset position has
deviated, delete the preset position and set the
correct preset position newly.
•Uploading of WV-CS854B preset data to other
models (e.g. WV-CS854, WV-CS854A and WV-
NS324) may cause an error and failure of the
uploading process.
PRECAUTIONS
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 qualified service personnel for servicing.
2. Handle the camera with care.
Do not misuse 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 moisture,
nor try to operate it in wet areas.
This product is designed for indoor use or locations
where it is protected from rain and moisture.
Turn the power off immediately and ask qualified
service personnel 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.
Use a dry cloth to clean the camera when it is dirty.
When the dirt is hard to remove, use a mild
detergent and wipe gently. Care should be taken
not to scratch the dome cover when wiping it.Afterwards, wipe off the remaining detergent with a
dry cloth.
5. Never aim the camera at the sun.
Whether or not the camera is in use , never aim it at
the sun or other extremely bright objects.
Otherwise, blooming or smear may be caused.
6. Never aim the camera at strong light sources for
an extended period of time.
A light source such as a spot light causes burn-in
on the display screen. Failure to observe this may
cause the image to become discolored due to
deterioration of the color filter in the CCD.
7. Do not install this camera upside down.
This camera is designed for mounting on the ceiling
or wall. Using this camera installed upside down,
for example, mounted on the floor, may cause
malfunction.
8. If OVER HEAT appears on the monitor screen.
The temperature inside the camera exceeds the
normal level because of a malfunction of the
cooling fan or other reasons. If this happens, turn
the power off immediately and refer servicing to
qualified service personnel.

9. Do not operate the camera beyond the specified
temperature, humidity or power source ratings.
Do not use the camera in an extreme environment
where high temperature or high humidity exists. Do
not place the camera near heat sources such as
radiators, stoves or other units that produce heat.
Use the camera under conditions where
temperature is between –10°C - +50°C (14°F -
122°F), preferably +40°C (104°F)], and humidity is
below 90 %.
The input power source is 24 V AC 60 Hz.
10. Do not install the camera near the air outlet of an
air conditioner.
The lens may become cloudy due to condensation
if the camera is used under the following
conditions.
•Rapid temperature fluctuations by switching the air
conditioner on and off.
•Rapid temperature fluctuations due to frequent door
opening and closing.
•Use in an environment where eyeglasses become
foggy.
•Use in a room filled with cigarette smoke or dust.
If the lens becomes cloudy due to condensation,
remove the dome cover and wipe all moist surfaces
with a soft cloth.
11. Consumables
Parts having contacts such as the lens-drive
motors, cooling fan motor and slip-rings inside the
camera are subject to wear with time. Please ask
the nearest service center about replacement and
maintenance of such parts.
12. Do not aim the camera at the same object for a
long time.
Burn-in of an image may be caused on the
fluorescent screen of CRT.
13. Self-diagnosis Function
If the camera continues operating abnormally for 30
seconds or more due to such an accident as
external noise, the camera will automatically reset
its power. In the case it happens frequently, check
if there would be any environmental cause.
14. Prevention of blooming and smear
When the camera is aimed at a bright light source,
such as a spotlight, or a surface that reflects bright
light, smear or blooming may appear. Therefore,
the camera should be operated carefully in the
vicinity of extremely bright objects to avoid smear
or blooming.
