ACCESSING THE SETUP MENUS

Use the 5-position button controller on the side panel of the camera to access and navigate the on-screen
display (OSD) menus. Use the following table to navigate through the menu options.

LENS

The C10CH Series camera supports both manual and auto iris lenses, either fixed focal length or
varifocal. It automatically senses an auto iris lens as soon as you plug in the connector.

The camera has a standard CS mount that can accept a C mount lens with a PCMA40 lens adapter.

To mount the lens onto the camera:

1. Make sure the lens does not touch the camera imager when installed.

2. Use clean, compressed air or a clean, dry lens cloth to make sure there is no dust or other foreign

matter between the lens and the camera imager.

3.

C mount lens:

Screw the adapter onto the lens.

4. Screw the lens onto the lens mount.

5.

Auto iris lens:

Connect the 4-pin connector from the lens to the connector on the side of the

camera.

6. Perform the lens focusing procedure before using the lens (refer to

Lens Focus

).
