can cause damage to the CCD.
• Select a stable place for installation of theWAT-910HX/RC.
Use a support of durable strength around an installation
position on a ceiling or wall when a camera stand or tripod
is used.
• Do not move the WAT-910HX/RC with the cables
connected.
Before moving the WAT-910HX/RC, always remove thevideo cable and power cable from the rear of the camera
first.
• Avoid using the WAT-910HX/RC near any strong
electromagnetic field.
After installing into main equipment, if the WAT-910HX/RC
is exposed to electromagnetic waves causing themonitored image to become distorted, we recommend thecamera be shielded by appropriate protective casing.

Description of Parts

Auto-iris Lens
Before connecting the auto-iris lens, please make sure that the pin
configuration is correct by confirming with the following table. If theconfiguration of your iris connector is different from the following, theplug and pins will need to be rewired.

①IMAGE SENSOR FRONT FACE
・The light receiving face of the image sensor(Dirt, water or oil deposits on the image sensor will cause an unclear
picture on the monitor. Attach the lens cap to protect the lens and theCCD from contamination and damage.)②LENS MOUNT・Mount for the lens (CS-mount)③IRIS LEVEL VOLUME・By controlling the volume, the iris level of the DC iris lens can beadjusted.
④FINE FOCUS ADJUSTMENT SCREWS・There are 3 hex. adjustment screws each placed at intervals of 120゜
for fine focusing of the lens.
⑤AUTO-IRIS SOCKET・This socket is for the video/DC auto-iris lens cable connector.
(Video/DC: Auto selected by the camera)⑥TRIPOD MOUNTING SCREW HOLES・Mounting holes for stands. The size of these threads are 1/4”, 20threads, 4.5±0.2mm, which is the same as any standard cameratripod (U1/4”).
⑦VIDEO OUT (BNC)
・The terminal for composite video signal output⑧OSD(On Screen Display) CONNECTOR
・The terminal designed for connection with the remote control for
setting the functions on the screen.

1) Ensure that the power to the WAT-910HX/RC and the peripheral
equipment is turned off before making any connections.
2) Remove the lens mount cap from the WAT-910HX/RC and attach theCS-mount lens. Use the optional C-mount adaptor (30CMA-R) whena C-mount lens is used.
3) Connect the iris control cable to ⑤AUTO-IRIS SOCKET on theWAT-910HX/RC when an auto-iris lens is being used.
4) Connect ⑦VIDEO OUT on the WAT-910HX/RC with the monitor,
using a coaxial cable with 75Ω impedance, such as an RG-59 or anRG-6/U.
※Select a monitor with the same television system as the WAT910HX/RC EIA or CCIR. A monitor with more than 600TV lines isrecommended.
5) Insert the power plug of the power adaptor into ⑨POWER IN on theback panel of the WAT-910HX/RC. Confirm that the power adaptor is
not connected to the power supply before insertion of the power plug
into ⑨POWER IN.
6) Turn on the power to the WAT-910HX/RC, monitor and all otherallied equipment. When a picture cannot be obtained on the monitor,
or a problem occurs, check and follow the procedure mentioned in
the【Problems and Trouble Shooting】section.
7) After following the procedure below and the picture is still out offocus, open the iris fully and loosen ④FINE FOCUSING
ADJUSTMENT SCREWS with the hex. wrench and move the lensforwards until a clear picture is obtained.
Manual Lens

Adjust the focus and iris to the best
position on the lens.

Video Auto-iris Lens

Adjust the focus on the lens.

DC Auto-iris Lens

Adjust the iris level on the camera, thenadjust the focus on the lens. See below.

Iris Level Adjustment (for DC auto-iris lenses only)

Use a stabilized power adaptor designed for DC+12V±10%, with acurrent capacity of more than 250mA. Use the optional DC plug if theshape or polarity of the DC plug of the power adaptor to be used is notcompatible with the camera (See the drawing on the right below).

Warning④DC+12VCOMMON(GND)

Adjust ③IRIS LEVEL VOLUME placed on the sideof the unit until an acceptable light level is attained.
No change will occur if a video iris lens or manualiris lens is fitted.

CLOSEDOPENLEVEL※ When an auto iris lens is used, connect the remote control
to ⑧OSD(On Screen Display) CONNECTOR, then set
SHUTTER to 1/60 (1/50), SENS UP to OFF and AGC to OFF by⑪OPERATION BUTTON. Then adjust ③IRIS LEVEL VOLUME
until an acceptable light level is attained.
8) When detailed settings are required or an adequate image is notobtained, connect the remote control to ⑧OSD(On Screen Display)
CONNECTOR, then set the functions on the screen by⑪OPERATION BUTTON.
