To attach the camera to a tripod Attach a tripod to the screw hole used for attaching a tripod on the bottom of the camera. The tripod must be set up on a flat surface and tightened firmly by hand. Use a tripod with screws meeting either of the following specifications. 1/4 -20UNC = 4.5 – 7 mm = 0.18 – 0.27 inches Caution Installation of the camera using the tripod screws and screw holes should not be done for installation on a ceiling or a shelf, etc. in a high position.
Installation on a ceiling (example) 1 Set IMG-FLIP to ON in the SYSTEM menu. 2 Loosen the four screws on the bottom of the camera to remove the four feet. 4 Attach the ceiling bracket (B) to the junction box on the ceiling. Align the holes in the bracket with those in the junction box, and use appropriate screws (not supplied). There are three screw holes along the edges of the ceiling bracket (B). Later, the front of the camera will be positioned at one of the screw holes.
5 Attach the ceiling bracket (A) to the bottom of the camera using the supplied four screws (3M3 × 8). Align the screw holes on the bottom of the camera with those in the ceiling bracket, and attach the bracket to the camera. Tighten the screws a little at a time in the numbered order shown in the illustration. Attach the wire rope using the screw designated as number 4. After all of the screws have been temporarily tightened, securely tighten each one in turn.
8 Connect the cables to the connectors on the rear of the camera. Ceiling 2 Attach the ceiling bracket (A) to the bottom of the camera using the supplied four screws (3M3 × 8). Align the screw holes on the bottom of the camera with those in the ceiling bracket, and attach the bracket to the camera. Tighten the screws a little at a time in the numbered order shown in the illustration. Attach the supplied wire rope using the screw designated as number 4.
3 Attach the ceiling bracket (B) to a shelf, etc. on which the camera is to be installed. Use four screws (not supplied) appropriate for the materials of the shelf, etc. There are three screw holes along the edges of the ceiling bracket (B). Later, the front of the camera will be positioned at one of the screw holes. Adjust the direction of the ceiling bracket (B) so that the camera will face the front and attach the bracket securely.
5 Insert the protrusions on the ceiling bracket (A) into the spaces prepared in the ceiling bracket (B), and temporarily attach them by turning the ceiling bracket (A) with the camera clockwise. 7 Connect the cables to the connectors on the rear of the camera. Ceiling bracket (A) Ceiling bracket (B) Note 6 Take the proper steps to ensure that the load of the cables connected does not cause problems. Secure the ceiling brackets (A) and (B) using the supplied three screws (3M3 × 8).
Connections Connecting the RM-BR300 Remote Control Unit Connecting to an AC Outlet Use the RS-232C connecting cable supplied with the Remote Control Unit. Use the supplied AC power adaptor and AC power cord to connect the camera to an AC outlet.
To connect the Remote Control Unit using the VISCA RS-422 connectors You can use the VISCA RS-422 connectors to connect the RM-BR300 Remote Control Unit to the camera instead of the VISCA RS-232C connectors. Use of the VISCA RS-422 connectors allows the connection up to 1,200 m (3,937 feet) away. Connecting a Video Monitor, VTR, etc. Equipped with the Composite Video Input Connector Prepare the connecting cable using the RS-422 connector plugs that come with the camera and the Remote Control Unit.
Connecting a Video Monitor, VTR, etc. Equipped with the S-Video Input Connector Connecting a Device Equipped with VISCA RS-232C Connector Connections with the VISCA RS-232C cables (cross type) enable control of multiple cameras with a single RM-BR300 Remote Control Unit.
You can connect the camera to a computer equipped with the VISCA RS-232C connector instead of the connection to the RM-BR300 Remote Control Unit. Note RM-BR300 Remote Control Unit When using the VISCA RS-232C connectors, check that the BOTTOM switch on the bottom of the camera (page 16) and the DIP switch on the bottom of the Remote Control Unit (page 20) are set to RS-232C.
Connecting a Video Monitor Equipped with Analog RGB/ Component Connectors When you install an optional BRBK-301 Analog RGB Component Card into the camera, you can output the signal from the camera by converting it into component video, RGB, composite video or S-video signal.
Connecting a VTR Equipped with SDI Input Connector bottom of the Remote Control Unit (page 20) are set to RS-232C or RS-422 correctly. When you install an optional BRBK-302 SDI Card into the camera, you can output the signal from the camera by converting it into a signal compliant with the SDI standard (SMPTE 259M serial digital interface).
Notes on use of the CCFC-M100 Optical Fiber Cable • In order to prevent cable transmission loss, fix the bend in the cable keeping more than 40 mm (1 5/8 inches) radius. Connecting a Video Switcher Use a commercially available video switcher to switch between the multiple camera signals to be output.
Connecting a Sync Signal Generator To connect multiple cameras You can connect up to seven cameras.
