INTRODUCTION
Features
Ⅲ A new DSP (Digital Signal Processor)
features a Extended Dynamic Range
(ExDR) and enables to shoot both bright
and dark locations.
Ⅲ Before starting an important recording,
be sure to perform a test recording in
order to confirm that a normal
recording is possible.
Ⅲ We do not accept liability for the loss of
a recording in the case of it becoming
impossible to record due to a problem
in the video camera,VCR or video tape.
Ⅲ We do not accept liability for any
damage to the camera in cases when it
is dropped because of incomplete
installation due to not observing the
installation instructions correctly.Please
be careful when installing the camera.
Ⅲ The motion detector is not a feature to
prevent theft, fire, etc. Even if an
accident should occur resulting in
damage, we do not accept any liability.
Ⅲ The use of a new CCD with a SENSE UP
(X32) function realized the minimum
luminous flux density for subject of 0.8 lx
(F1.2, 50%, AGC 20dB) and 0.025 lx (at
slow shutter).
Ⅲ A motion detector function detects the
motion inside an image and emits alarm
signals.
Ⅲ The equipped Y/C terminals and RS-
422A/RS-485 terminals allow intended
compatibility with diversified systems.

Operating Precautions
● To save energy, when it is not being used
turn the system’s power off.
● Observe the following when carrying out
camera maintenance.
● This camera has been designed for indoor
use. When you use it outdoor, be sure to
use a housing and the like.
● Do not install or use the camera in the
following places.
• Turn the power OFF before proceeding
to carry out maintenance.
If it is contaminated seriously, clean the
contaminated part with a cloth (or a
tissue) which has been soaked in a
solution of water and a neutral detergent.
● TK-C1480U and TK-C1480E
• In a place exposed to rain or moisture.
• In a place with vapor or oil soot, for
example in a kitchen.
• When the ambient temperature rises
above or falls below the acceptable
range (from –10°C to 50°C).
The unit is to be powered by a DC 12 V or
an AC 24 V power supply.
The AC 24V power supply should conform
to the following:
• Near a source of radiation, X-rays,
strong radio waves or magnetism.
• In a place subject to vibration.
TK-C1480U Class 2 only
TK-C1480E Isolated power supply only
TK-C1481EG Connect the power cable
to the commercial power supply of 230V.
● Caution for operating the video iris lens
In case the video iris lens is set to an
extremely low level, malfunction – such as
the hunting phenomenon in which the iris
opens or closes unintentionally – can
occur.
• In a place with excessive dirt.
● If this camera and the cables connected
to this camera are used where there are
strong electromagnetic waves or where
there is magnetism present, for example
near a radio or TV transmitter, power
transformer or an electric motor, the picture
may produce noise and the colours may
be affected.
● This camera incorporates an AGC circuit.
As a result, when it is used under low light
conditions, the camera sensitivity is
automatically boosted and the picture may
look uneven. However, this is not a
malfunction.
● When this camera is used in the ATW
mode, the recorded colours may be slightly
different from the actual colours due to the
operational principles of the auto-tracking
white balance circuit. However, this is not
a malfunction.
● If a high-intensity object (such as a lamp)
is shot, the image on the screen may have
vertical lines (smear) or blur (blooming)
at its periphery. This is a characteristic of
the CCD, and is not a defect.
In such a case, first set the “LEVEL”
potentiometer on the lens to the H position
(iris open), and then adjust it to an optimum
level.
● A CCD is made by high technology,
boasting an exceptionally high level of
precision with an effective pixel of more
than 99.99%. Although there is a less than
0.01% pixel defect (whitish flaw, blackish
flaw), this does not mean that the CCD is
out of order.
● The cable stopper on the terminal block
can come off sometimes. Therefore, be
sure to take enough time and fix the cable
securely.
● When a highly bright subject is shot,
sometimes undulations can be observed
on the vertical lines of the subject.
However, this phenomenon is peculiar to
the unit and is not a sign of malfunction.

MEMO
•
•
When operating a system using the RM-P2580, several cameras (up to 8) can be
connected and used on one control signal cable.Consequently, an incorrect switch setting
on just a single camera will cause the entire system to work incorrectly.
Confirm switch settings on the screen as follows.
q Confirm that the image from the camera to be checked
is displayed on the monitor.
MONITOR screen
(example showing camera ID as “05”)
w Turn OFF and then ON the AC 24 V power to the
camera to be checked.
e The camera begins the initial operation and charac-
ters similar to those shown in the illustration on the
right appear on the monitor screen.
r Confirm that “DUPLEX” and “ID-□□” are displayed
and that the ID number is the correct number (the
number should be the same as the number of the
VIDEO INPUT terminal to which the camera is con-
nected on the rear panel of the RM-P2580).
t If wrong, set the camera ID again.

Mounting the lens
Mount the lens according to the procedures described below.
1. Before mounting a lens, check whether
it is a C-mount or CS-mount lens.
To change the mounting method, loosen
the back-focus locking screw (M 2.6)
using a Phillips head screwdriver, turn
the back-focus adjusting ring with your
fingers or the screwdriver and change
the mounting method.

•
If thin cables are used (i.e. with a high resistance), a significant voltage drop will occur
when the unit is at its maximum power consumption. Either use a thick cable to restrict
the voltage drop at the camera side to below 10%, or place the power supply near to the
camera. If voltage drop occurs during operation, the performance will be unstable.
Attach the cable conductors so that they do not come into contact with the drop prevention
wires.
•
•
•
Do not allow input from both a DC 12 V and AC 24 V power supply at the same time.
When using a DC 12 V power supply, ensure that the polarities of the cable are correct.
The AC 24 V power supply should conform to the following:
TK-C1480U Class 2 only
TK-C1480E Isolated power supply only
TK-C1481EG (AC230V)
Power cable connect to the commercial
AC230V outlet

Ⅲ Control signal cables
Ⅲ Genlock connection
These cables should be connected only when
it is required to control the camera using the
RS-442A or RS-485 signals.The use of 0.65
4-conductor twisted pair cables is recom-
mended.With these cables, the maximum ex-
tension distance is 1,200 m.
With some systems, when the external sync
signal is a composite video or black burst sig-

MEMO
• If the sensitivity adjustment LEVEL is
turned excessively to L, the sensitivity in-
creases because of the AGC function of
the camera, and the image looks grainy.
• If the video iris lens is set to too low a level,
malfunction such as the hunting phenom-
enon, in which the iris opens or closes
unintentionally, may occur.

shutter speed.

The ExDR function allows even the shooting of a subject
having different luminous flux density by composing a picture
shot at 1/100 (1/120) sec. shutter speed with a picture shot
by a high-speed shutter. ( ): TK-C1480U

The item FAST LIMIT on the SHUTTER (ExDR)
screen sets a maximum shutter speed value.
M.ExDR: This is used when shooting a subject with
difference in a luminous flux density in the screen
under a fixed illumination condition, and so on.
During ExDR mode, the item M.ExDR.SPEED on
the SHUTTER (ExDR) screen sets the composing
high shutter speed. It is possible to set only when
the items BLC and SENSE UP are OFF. What’s
more, the ExDR LEVEL sets the signal level of
the composing high-speed shutter.
A.ExDR: This is used when the subjects having different
luminous flux densities are continuously used
night and day in the situation where both indoor
and outdoor subjects are mixed in existence, and
so forth. During ExDR mode, the composing
shutter speed automatically varies according to
the contrast of a subject. This is set when shooting
the subject with changing brightness.
This can be set only when the item BLC is OFF.
What’s more, the ExDR LEVEL sets the signal
level of the composing high-speed shutter.
MEMO
• Do not set to A.ExDR when using a manual lens.
• When M.ExDR mode or A.ExDr mode is used, the border
