The lightning flash with arrow-head symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

Remove dust on the faceplate of filter glass before mounting the lens on the camera.

To prevent electric shock, do not remove screws or covers. There are no serviceable parts inside. Ask a qualified service person for servicing.

Do not abuse the camera. Avoid striking, shaking, etc. The camera could be damaged by improper handling or shortage.

This camera is designed for indoor use. Turn the power off immediately and ask a qualified service person for servicing. Moisture can damage the camera and also create the danger of electric shock.

Use a dry cloth to clean the camera when dirty. In case the dirt is hard to remove, use a mild detergent and wipe gently.

Do not clean the CCD with strong or abrasive detergents. Use lens tissue or a cotton tipped applicator and ethanol.

Do not aim the camera at bright objects. Whether the camera is in use or not, never aim at the sun or other extremely bright objects. Otherwise, blooming or smear may be caused.

Dropping metal for example inside the camera could permanently damage the unit. If anything is dropped inside the camera, turn the power off immediately and ask a qualified service person for servicing.

Use the camera under conditions where temperature is between -10°C +50°C (14°F – 122°F), and humidity is below 90 %. The input power source is DC 12 V, 170 mA.

The serial number of this product may be found on the top of the unit.

Prepare a regulated DC power supply which can supply DC 12 V ±10 % DC 170 mA or more current and rated CLASS 2.

Be sure to use the optional manual iris lens having the following items:

Focus: Adjustable

Lens Weight: Less than 300 g (0.66 lbs.)

Mount: C-mount

The protrusion at the rear of the lens should be less than 5/6″ (Less than 8 mm).

If the lens is heavier than 300 g (0.66 lbs.), both the lens and the camera should be secured by using the supporter.

For setting the Switch 1 No.1 to 6 and 2 No. 1 to 6, remove the switch cover fixing screw on the side panel. To control the pedestal level or gain level, remove the cover fixing screw on the rear panel.

This is connected with the optional Camera Cable GP-CA34, GP-CA33, GP-CA59 or GP-CA60.

This connector is used to connect with the VIDEO IN connector of the monitor.

This switch selects the Field or Frame Accumulation.

ON: Field Accumulation

OFF: Frame Accumulation

These switches (Switch 1 No. 2, 3, 4, and 5) are used to set the shutter speed. The shutter speed changes according to the mode which is set by the switch.

This controls the pedestal level from 0 mV to 100 mV.

This controls the gain level from 0 to 6 dB.

These switches (Switch 2 No.1 and 2) are used to set the mode. You can select the mode from A, B, and C mode. The mode can be set as below:

When V reset is selected (Switch 2 No.1 is ON and No.2 is OFF), this switch selects B mode or C mode.

B mode: V reset Latch off

C mode: V reset Latch on

When V cont is selected (Switch 2 No.1 is OFF and No.2 is ON), set this switch to ON and Switch 2 No.6 to OFF.

Switch 2 No.5 turns on or off the termination for HD signal with 75 Ω.

Switch 2 No.6 turns on or off the termination for VD signal with 75 Ω. When V cont is selected (Switch 2 No.1 is OFF and No.2 is ON), set this switch to OFF and Switch 2 No.4 to ON.

The GP-MF622 works in 2 : 1 interlace mode when external 2 : 1 interlaced HD/VD signal is supplied to pin-6 and pin-7 of the camera connector (12-pin).

If the picture appears disturbed, be sure to match the phases of falling edges of the external HD/VD.

When the camera is aimed at a bright light, such as a spotlight, or a surface that reflects bright light, smear or blooming may appear. Therefore, the camera should be operated carefully in the vicinity of extremely bright objects to avoid smear or blooming.

Keep the power switches of all units to OFF before connections.

1. Connect the optional camera cable GP-CA34 between the connector of this camera and the 12V DC Class 2 power supply (not provided as an accessory).

2. Connect the video connector of the GP-CA34 to the Video Monitor.

Use a 12V DC Class 2 Power Supply only.
