Insert/remove an SDHC/SD memory card
Important:
	 •	 Before	inserting	the	SDHC/SD	memory	card,	turn	off	the	power	of	the	camera	first.	
	 •	 When	inserting	an	SDHC/SD	memory	card,	make	sure	the	direction.	
	 •	 Before	 removing	the	SDHC/SD	 memory	card,	select	 "Not	use"	for	"SD	 memory	 card"	on	the	
[SD memory card] tab of the setup menu first. Turn off the power after "Not use" selection, and 
then  unload  the  SDHC/SD  memory  card.  When  the  SDHC/SD  memory  card  is  inserted  or 
removed  with  the  power  on,  data  in  the  SDHC/SD  memory  card  may  be  damaged.

Connection
Before starting the connection, turn off the power of this camera and the devices to be connected. 
Check and prepare the required devices and cables for connection. Note:
	 •	 Since  the  connector  storage 
section  does  not  have  a  suffi-
cient  space,  use  audio  cables 
and  a  LAN  cable  that  do  not 
exceed  the  sizes  described  in 
the illustrations.
 
z Connect the RCA pin cable to the monitor out connector for adjustment (only used for adjust-
ment of the angular field of view). (☞ Page 16) 
Important:
	 •	 The	 monitor	out	connector	 for	service	 is	provided	 only	for	checking	 the	adjustment	 of	the	 angu-
lar field of view on the video monitor when installing the camera or when servicing. It is not pro-
vided for recording/monitoring use. 
	 •	 When	 checking	the	adjustment	 of	the	 angular	 field	of	view	 on	the	 video	 monitor,	 be	sure	 to	use	
the RCA jack of the main body for connection with video monitor. 
	 •	 Black	 bands	may	appear	 at	the	 top	 and	 bottom	 or	right	 and	left	of	the	 screen.	 (That	does	not	
affect the adjustment because the angular field of view is not changed.)
	 •	 The	 video	output	 on	the	 monitor	 for	adjustment	 does	not	guarantee	 the	video	 performance	 or	
image quality.
 
x  Connect  the  microphone  to  MIC/LINE  IN  (for 
use of the audio reception function). 
  Input impedance: Approx. 2 kΩ
  Recommended cable length:
    1 m {3.3'} or less (for microphone input) 
10 m {33'} or less (for LINE input)
  Recommended microphone:
    Plug-in power type microphone (option) 
Connect a monaural mini plug (ø3.5 mm).
	 •	 Supply	voltage:	2.5	V±0.5	V
	 •	 Recommended	sensitivity	of	microphone:	  –48	dB	±3	dB	(0	dB=1	V/Pa,1	kHz)

ral output). 
	 •	 Recommended	cable	length:	Less	than	  10 m {33'}
v Connect  the  cables  of  external  devices  to  the 
EXT I/O terminal plug (accessory). 
  q  When  connecting  an  external  device,  remove 
8 mm  -  9  mm  {5/16"  -  11/32"}  of  the  outer 
jacket  of  the  cable  and  twist  the  cable  core  to 
prevent the short circuit first. 
Specification of cable (wire): 20 AWG -  
26 AWG
    Single core, twisted
  w  Push  down  the  button  of  the  desired  terminal 
on the external I/O terminal plug with a ballpoint 
pen,  and  release  the  button  when  the  cable  of 
the  external  device  is  fully  inserted  into  the  ter-
minal  hole.  Make  sure  that  the  cable  is  firmly 
connected to the terminal. 
  e  After  the  cable  connection,  connect  the  exter-
nal  I/O  terminal  plug  to  the  external  I/O  termi-
nals of the camera. 
  * Check  whether  the  stripped  part  of  the  wire  is 
not exposed and is securely connected.

(accessory). 
  w  Connect  the  cable  of  the  12  V  DC  power  sup-
ply* to the power cord plug.
    Strip 3 mm - 7 mm {1/8" - 9/32"} from the end 
of  the  wire,  and  twist  the  stripped  part  of  the 
wire sufficiently to avoid short circuit. 
Specification of cable (wire):  
16 AWG - 24 AWG, Single core, twisted
  •  Check  whether  the  stripped  part  of  the  wire  is 
not exposed and is securely connected.
  e  Tighten the screw of the power cord plug. 
  r  Connect  the  power  cord  plug  to  the  12  V  DC 
power supply terminal.

When using PoE (IEEE802.3af compliant)
Connect  a  LAN  cable  (category  5  or  better,  straight,  STP*)  between  a  PoE  device  (such  as  a  hub) 
and the network connector of the camera.
* PAL models only
Important:
	 •	 Use	all	4	pairs	(8	pins)	of	the	LAN cable. 
	 •	 The	maximum	cable	length	is	100	m	{328'}.	
	 •	 Make	sure	that	the	PoE	device	in	use	is	compliant	with	IEEE802.3af	standard.	
	 •	 When	 connecting	 both	the	12	V	DC	 power	 supply	 and	the	PoE	 device	 for	power	 supply,	 PoE	
will be used for power supply. 
	 •	 When	 disconnecting	 the	LAN	 cable	 once,	 reconnect	 the	cable	 after	about	 2	seconds.	 When	
the cable is quickly connected, the power may not be supplied from the PoE device.

lens direction will become easier when the camera is mounted with the "gFRONT" marker ori-
ented  to  the  desired  shooting  area.  Refer  to  the  "Adjustment"  section  (☞  pages  29  to  33)  for 
further information about adjustment. 
	 •	 For	wall	mounting
    The camera shall be mounted with the "gFRONT" marker facing upward.

Adjustment
z Adjust  the  camera  angle.  When  determining  the  camera  angle,  repeat  fine  adjustments  by 
gradually moving the panning table, tilting table, and azimuth adjustmen\
t ring. 
Horizontal position (Panning)
Loosen  the  panning  lock  screw,  rotate  the  panning  table  to  adjust  the  pan  direction.  (Adjustable 
range: 350 °)
Panning  is  possible  within  the  range  of  180  ° (when  panning  clockwise)  and  170  °  (when  panning 
counterclockwise). After adjustment, tighten the panning lock screw to fix the panning table.

lens is used, it is possible to change the angu-
lar field of view. This lens can also be rotated in 
the  reverse  direction,  but  the  image  azimuth  is 
reversed.  In  this  case,  the  image  azimuth  can 
be  modified  when  the  panning  table  is  rotated 
to the direction of clockwise panning (180°).
