FOCUS ADJUSTMENT
Turn the back focus adjuster screw clockwise or anticlockwise to obtain focus. When the focus is sharp, turn the adjustment screw 2 or 3 turns anticlockwise. The picture will lose sharpness. Turn the screw clockwise until focus is once again obtained. If the point of best focus is passed, repeat the procedure. The last turn of the back focus adjustment screw must always be in a clockwise direction . Do not over turn or force the back focus mechanism.
Fixed Lenses
Set the lens focus to infinity and view an image greater than 2 metres away. Focus the image using the back-focus screw. Set the lens focus as required.
Manual Iris Lenses
Open the iris fully and set the lens focus to infinity. View an image greater than 2 metres away. Focus the image using the back-focus screw. Set the lens focus and iris as required.
Auto-Iris and Direct Drive Lenses
Fully open the iris by covering the lens with a suitable neutral density (ND) filter. Set the lens focus to infinity. View an image greater than 2 metres away. Focus the image using the back-focus screw. Remove the ND filter and set the lens focus as required.
Zoom Lenses
Set the lens focus to infinity and fully open the iris by covering the lens with a suitable neutral density (ND) filter. Zoom out to the widest field of vision and view a distant object.
Adjust the back focus screw until the object is in focus. Next, zoom fully in and adjust the focus of the lens until the object is again focused. Repeat these steps until the full zoom range may be viewed with the minimum loss of focus.

CDR Series Installation Instructions
SYSTEM CONNECTIONS
CDR series cameras receive coaxial telemetry via the Video Out BNC connector. These telemetry signals are passed to a receiver when required via a 20mA twisted pair connection.
In normal operation, the camera is completely transparent to telemetry commands and simply forwards them to the receiver. However, when the cameras menu system is being accessed, telemetry commands are no longer passed to the receiver and are instead used to issue program instructions to the camera.
Note
When using coaxial telemetry, the PROTOCOL option in the Comms menu must be set to
COAX. This operation can only be carried out locally via the camera joystick. For more details, see page 38.
The camera can be connected in a variety of options as shown below:
Camera video
The camera is connected directly to the monitor. Camera setup must be made via the built-in joystick.
Simple direct connection
Camera
Monitor
The camera is connected to the monitor via a telemetry controller (e.g. ZTX3). Camera setup can be made via the built-in joystick or remotely using the telemetry controller.

Installation Instructions CDR Series
SYSTEM CONNECTIONS
Notes
When using DC continuous rotation Pan/Tilt heads, two slip rings will be required for the 20mA twisted pair connection.
Use Belden 8723 or similar for the 20mA twisted pair cable. The screen must be earthed and the cable length should not exceed 20m.
The recommended coaxial cable is RG59, copper cored. Maximum length is 500m.
RS485 MENU CONTROL
The camera can be connected to a PC-based controller via a BAXCOM or equivalent
RS485/RS232 converter. The controller can then be used to make menu selections.
The connections should be made through pins 1 and 2 of the Comms I/O Connector - see
Comms I/O Connections on page 9 for pin-out.
Notes
The RS485 connections are only used for controlling the on-screen menus. It cannot be utilized without setting the PROTOCOL option in the Comms menu must be set to
BAXALL. This operation can only be carried out locally via the camera joystick. For more details, see page 38.

Options: ATW, 3200K, 4200K, 6300K, PUSH, HOLD, USER (Colour Cameras Only)
There are seven colour balance modes. For the majority of applications, the ATW (Autotracing white balance mode) setting will provide excellent colour rendition. This mode analyses the colour content of the scene and automatically applies the necessary values to balance it.
For applications where the illumination is predominantly daylight, the 6300K (fixed) setting may provide improved colour rendition over ATW. Where a mixture of illuminations such as tungsten, fluorescent and daylight exist, the 3200K (fixed) setting may provide the best colour rendition. Where fluorescent lighting is predominant use the 4200K (fixed) setting.
The PUSH setting is similar to ATW, with the difference being that PUSH is not limited in its colour temperature range frame. This means that the PUSH setting can balance colour temperatures that would normally be out of the range of the ATW setting. However, this can lead to a slight loss in chrominance in certain conditions.
The HOLD setting is used set a fixed colour balance after the PUSH operation has ended.
This setting is fundamentally the same as using the fixed white balance settings (i.e., 3200K,
4200K, 6300K). However, this setting allows the installer a unlimited range to set an appropriate fixed colour balance for a particular scene. This may mean that the colour rendition can be improved by using this setting.
The USER setting, when selected, will open the WHITE BALANCE menu shown above.
This menu allows you to set the Red and Blue components of the scene separately.
The factory default setting is ATW.

Gamma quantifies the degree of contrast in a scene. Seven different gamma settings are provided: 1.00 (linear), 0.90, 0.80, 0.70, 0.60, 0.45 and 0.40. The 0.4 and 0.45 settings significantly increase the definition of objects in the darker areas of a scene.
In normal operation, the 0.45 setting should be used and is therefore the default setting. In some applications, and depending upon the scene, the other settings may produce more satisfactory results.

The AGC (Automatic Gain Control) parameter sets the maximum amount of gain that the camera can apply to the signal from the CCD. If there is sufficient light falling on the CCD, the AGC circuit will not apply any gain. As the light level decreases, the AGC circuit increases the gain until the required video output level is achieved (or the maximum gain reached).
Higher AGC settings provide increased visibility in darker areas of the scene. Note that high AGC settings may introduce noise into the displayed picture. Factory default is 22dB.

The Shutter and EI (electronic iris) parameter controls the amount of time the CCD is allowed to charge. This is directly analogous to the shutter speed of a conventional (film) camera. Faster shutter speeds provide clearer images of moving objects but will result in a darker picture since the time allowed for the CCD to charge becomes shorter.
The EI ON option electronically compensates for excessive scene illumination by automatically adjusting the exposure time between 1/50 and 1/10000s.
The 1/120 option provides a flickerless mode which can be used to minimise the flicker caused by certain lighting conditions. Factory default is EI ON.

The backlight compensation feature can be used to eliminate the effect of an area of strong background lighting in a scene. If a strong background light such as a window exists in a scene, the camera will try to compensate for it by reducing the overall exposure. This would mean that the areas surrounding the window would become too dark.
By using the backlight compensation feature, it is possible to select areas of the scene which may be used to control the exposure. Typically, the object of interest lies in the centre of the scene and this is the area normally used to calculate the exposure. The edges, where strong backlighting is likely to be, are ignored.
To facilitate backlight compensation, five windows are provided: Top, Left, Centre, Right and Bottom. The BLC menu allows you to alter the size and position of the centre window.
The other four windows occupy positions around the centre window at the top, bottom, left and right of the scene. Their size is determined by the size and position of the centre window.
Note that these peripheral areas may not always be present. For example, if the size and position of the centre window has been adjusted so that it includes the extreme left hand side and bottom areas of the scene, then the Left and Bottom windows will not be available to the user until the size and position of the centre window is readjusted.

Each of the four peripheral windows has an adjustable weighting (0-15) used to determine its contribution in setting the overall exposure of the scene. A weight setting of 0 means that the area within the window will not be used to set the overall scene exposure. The weighting of the centre window is fixed.
The area enclosed by each window is multiplied by its weighting to give an exposure value for the window. The sum of all five windows is used to calculate an overall exposure value which is then used by the cameras exposure control circuit.
Example 1.
People entering a shop through the doorway are to be monitored. Without backlight compensation, a person entering the shop would be seen in silhouette because the relatively bright windows to each side of the door would cause the camera to reduce its exposure.
By carefully using the backlight compensation facility, it is possible to size and position the centre window around the area of interest, i.e. the doorway. By setting the weighting of the four peripheral windows to zero, only the centre window will be used to calculate the scene exposure. Therefore a person entering the shop will be clearly displayed.
Example 2.
The camera is required to observe a typical street scene. The sky above the buildings in the street is very bright thus causing the cameras exposure system to adversely compensate. Using the backlight compensation feature, position the centre window such that the remaining Top window covers the sky area. The weighting of the Top window can now be set to zero so that this area does not affect the exposure. The remaining windows are set to 15. By using this method the buildings and street will be correctly exposed.
Note
The backlight compensation feature will only work with manual lenses when the shutter speed is set to 1/50 or EI ON. If any other shutter speed is selected and BLC is then activated, the cursor will automatically jump back to the shutter speed menu item and set it to 1/50. Conversely, if BLC is switched ON and the shutter speed is then set to anything other than 1/50 or EI ON, the cursor will automatically jump to BLC and set it to OFF.
The BLC feature will work with both DC (Direct Drive) and video drive Auto-Iris lenses.

Certain scenes contain high-contrast objects and are better compensated for by setting the direct-drive lens control to Peak so that the lens responds to these bright areas and highlights.
Other scenes have little or no contrast and a better response from the lens can be achieved by setting the lens control to Average. The Av:Pk Mixing setting allows you to choose the best setting for the scene/lens combination.

Excessively bright or peak white areas in a scene can cause auto-iris lenses (Direct Drive and Video Drive types) to react and close down thereby losing the detail in darker areas of the scene. The Peak White Inversion feature is designed to overcome this. It allows you to render, as black, any part of the scene over a certain brightness threshold. A typical usage of this may occur in a highway surveillance role. Car headlamps would normally cause an auto-iris lens to close. By using peak white inversion to render the headlamps as black, the lens will not react to them and therefore correctly expose the rest of the scene.

When AUTO is selected the camera will automatically set itself for the appropriate sync/ power input. To do this, the camera checks for a genlock synchronisation signal. If a genlock signal has been applied to the camera, then the camera will lock its frame rate to that of the genlock source. A genlock synchronisation signal can be used with AC and DC power supplies.
If a genlock synchronisation signal is not present, the camera will then check for an AC power source. If an AC power source is present, the camera will line lock its frame rate to the AC frequency, ensuring that the camera is triggered at the same point on every AC cycle.
Only if neither of these sources are present will the camera default to the INT option (internal lock). The INT option locks the camera frame rate to a frequency generated by an internal crystal.
If required, the INT option can also be selected in the menu regardless of whether a genlock synchronisation signal or an AC power source is present.
When AUTO is selected, a number of options will be displayed in the menu (as seen above). However, H PHASE, SC PHASE and GENLOCK TERM are only applicable when a genlock source is being used for synchronisation. Adjusting these settings will have no effect if the camera is using an linelocked AC power supply for synchronisation.
The V PHASE menu item can be used both when a genlock source is being used for synchronisation and when an AC power supply is being used. However its reference changes in each instance.
See the following page for more details on these menu items.

The Horizontal Phase adjust parameter provides a means of adjusting the horizontal trigger position relative to the genlock signal. Although the default value should be correct for most situations, adjustments may be needed for long cable runs.
V PHASE (Colour Cameras Only)
Options: adjustable between 0 and 624
When using a genlock source for synchronisation, the Vertical Phase parameter allows the trigger point to be adjusted to align the field synchronisation. One adjustment step is equal to one TV line.
GENLOCK TERM
Options: ON, OFF
In order for the genlock option to operate correctly, both ends of the genlock cable need to be terminated. Cameras may be connected in one of two ways: a) The genlock signal may be sent to each camera individually. In this case, the genlock termination parameter needs to be set to ON.
b) The genlock signal may be sent to several cameras in a daisy-chain configuration i.e.
one camera feeds the next and so on. In this case, the genlock termination parameter needs to be set to OFF for all of the cameras in the system except the last in the chain which should be set to ON.
SC PHASE (Colour Cameras Only)
Options: 0, 45, 90, 135, 180, 225, 270 and 315 degrees
The Sub Carrier Phase adjustment parameter is used when an external genlock signal is being used to synchronise a colour camera. It is used to adjust the sub carrier phase with respect to the genlock signal. Select the setting that gives the strongest hues for the viewed scene.
