GB High-Resolution Colour Camera
Please read these operating instructions carefully prior
to installing the unit and keep them for later use.
1 Applications
This high-resolution colour camera with zoom lens is
specially designed for applications in video surveil-
lance systems (CCTV). It is suited for installation on
ceilings or walls. The camera is equipped with a
weatherproof housing (IP 66) and with 36 IR LEDs
which will automatically be activated / deactivated
depending on the ambient light. Due to a variety of
setting possibilities via an OSD menu, it will be possi-
ble to optimally match the camera to the correspond-
ing application.
2 Important Notes
The camera corresponds to all required directives of
the EU and is therefore marked with
G
Protect the camera against extreme temperatures
(admissible ambient temperature range -10 °C to
+50 °C).
G
The camera housing is weatherproof; however,
it is not completely watertight. Therefore, do not
immerse the camera in water.
G
Protect the lens against direct sunlight; otherwise
the CCD chip may be damaged.
G
Never use aggressive detergents or chemicals for
cleaning the housing.
G
No guarantee claims for the camera and no liability
for any resulting personal damage or material dam-
age will be accepted if the camera is used for other
purposes than originally intended, if it is not cor-
rectly installed or operated, or if it is not repaired in
an expert way.
If the camera is to be put out of operation
definitively, take it to a local recycling plant for
a disposal which is not harmful to the envi-
ronment.
3 Installation
CAUTION: Never look directly into the lit
LEDs at a close range. Although the
infrared light is invisible, it may cause
eye damage.
1) Connect the BNC inline jack (6) via a 75 Ω coaxial
cable to the video input of a monitor. With a cable
length exceeding 100 m, a video amplifier should
be inserted between the camera and the long
cable to compensate for cable loss.
2) Connect the low-voltage inline jack (7) to a regu-
lated power supply (12 V / 400 mA). For this pur-
pose, a plug of the dimensions 5.5 / 2.1 mm (out-
side / inside diameter) will be required. Always
observe the correct polarity: inside contact = + .
3) Switch on the monitor and align the camera to the
surveillance zone in order to find its optimum
mounting location: for turning, tilting and panning
the camera, release the locking screws (5) for the
corresponding axes (matching hexagon socket
screw keys are supplied) and fasten them after
aligning.
4) Fasten the base of the camera bracket to the
mounting location by means of the installation
material supplied. Guide the connection cable
through an opening in the wall or through the lat-
eral cable inlet (9) in the base. For outdoor instal-
lation, the cable inlet must point downwards to pre-
vent precipitation from entering the bracket.

The connections (6, 7) and the cable distributor
(8) are not weatherproof. For outdoor installation,
protect them accordingly.
5) With the zoom control (5), adjust the image sec-
tion, then adjust the image sharpness with the
focus control (3). To turn a control, release the
screw of the control with the screwdriver supplied,
then fasten it again after the adjustment.
