CAMERA MOUNTING
The C10CH Series camera can be mounted from either the top or bottom, depending on the type of camera mount used in your installation. Use a
standard 1/4-20 screw. The maximum thread depth (top) is 0.188 inches (4.7 mm). To extend the thread depth (top) to 0.25 inches (6.4 mm), use
the camera mount spacer (supplied). The maximum thread depth (bottom) is 0.25 inches (6.4 mm).
The C10CH Series camera can be fitted with most Pelco lenses and mounted into most Pelco domes and enclosures, resulting in the greatest
possible number of combinations. This means you can find a solution for nearly any application.
When selecting a lens, dome, or enclosure for this camera, consider how the physical dimensions of each component may affect camera
installation and operation.
NOTE: To simplify lens and enclosure selection, Pelco offers ImagePak options for the C10CH Series camera. Select the lens and the dome or
enclosure, and Pelco will build and test it for you. Contact Pelco or your dealer for more information.
CONNECTING VIDEO
Connect a coaxial video cable to the BNC connector on the back of the camera. Refer to Table A for the type of video coaxial cable to use.
If white spots appear in the video image, one or more pixels on the camera imager may be defective. This condition is common to CCD camera
imagers. To correct this condition, refer to Pixel Correction on page 23.
