type of power supply for your installation site, consult your appliance dealer or local power company.
12. Power Cord Protection: Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or
against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the camera.
13. Lightning: For added protection for the camera during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time,
unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the cable system. This will prevent damage to the camera due to lightning and power line surges.
14. Overloading: Do not overload the wall outlet and extension cord, as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

Installation
LENS MOUNTING
The C10CH Series camera supports both manual and auto iris lenses, either fixed focal length or varifocal. It also supports both DC and video
drive lenses. 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.
After mounting a DC drive auto iris lens, but before using the camera, perform the DC drive auto iris automatic adjustment procedure (refer to
WIRING AN AUTO IRIS LENS
Auto iris lenses are controlled through the 4-pin drive connector (type D4-152N). Figure 2 identifies the pin connections for the auto iris lens
connector on the side of the camera.

CAMERA MOUNTING
The C10CH Series camera can be mounted from either the top or bottom, depending on the type of camera mount used in your installation. Use a
standard 1/4-20 screw. The maximum thread depth (top) is 0.188 inches (4.7 mm). To extend the thread depth (top) to 0.25 inches (6.4 mm), use
the camera mount spacer (supplied). The maximum thread depth (bottom) is 0.25 inches (6.4 mm).
The C10CH Series camera can be fitted with most Pelco lenses and mounted into most Pelco domes and enclosures, resulting in the greatest
possible number of combinations. This means you can find a solution for nearly any application.
When selecting a lens, dome, or enclosure for this camera, consider how the physical dimensions of each component may affect camera
installation and operation.
NOTE: To simplify lens and enclosure selection, Pelco offers ImagePak options for the C10CH Series camera. Select the lens and the dome or
enclosure, and Pelco will build and test it for you. Contact Pelco or your dealer for more information.

Camera Synchronization
Camera synchronization may affect installations that use two or more AC power supplies for multiple cameras. Due to different power phases,
a brief vertical roll may appear on the monitor when switching between cameras. To eliminate this vertical roll, adjust the phase control to
synchronize the cameras to one another.
It may be necessary for two people to communicate when synchronizing cameras, one at the camera and the other at the monitor, to observe the
vertical roll and the effect of any camera adjustments.
To synchronize cameras, complete the following steps:
1. Choose a reference camera to which all other cameras will be phased.
2. Access V-PHASE ADJ menu for a camera. Press the button up and down to adjust the vertical phase until the camera is synchronized to the
reference camera.
A dual trace oscilloscope is recommended, but not required, to adjust camera phase. Align the vertical sync pulses of the reference camera
to the selected camera.
3. After making each adjustment, switch back and forth between the adjusted camera and the reference camera. Repeat this process until the
roll between the cameras disappears completely.
4. Adjust the phase of all other cameras by repeating steps 2 and 3. Always adjust to the reference camera selected in step 1.
5. As soon as you finish customizing this and all other camera settings, save your custom settings into the CUSTOM profile. This protects
them if the camera loses power or if it must be restarted (refer to Profiles on page 18 for more information).
To adjust phase control:
1. Select LINE SYNC on the FUNCTION SETTINGS menu. The LINE SYNC menu appears.
2. Switch the LINE SYNC setting to AUTO.
3. Select V-PHASE ADJ. The V-PHASE ADJ menu appears.
4. Press the button up or down to change the PHASE VALUE. On the C10CH-6 (NTSC) camera, the range is 0 (zero) to 52. On the C10CH-6X
(PAL) camera, the range is 0 (zero) to 62.
5. Press the center of the button to return to the LINE SYNC menu.
6. Select EXIT to close the setup menus.
7. As soon as you finish customizing this and all other camera settings, save your custom settings in the CUSTOM profile. This protects them
if the camera loses power or if it must be restarted (refer to Profiles on page 18 for more information).

Manual White Balance Calibration
In some installations, use manual white balance to render the most accurate image color possible. Mixed color applications may affect the
amount of color adjustment. For example, a small white object on a large blue surface may have a reddish tint. Manual white balance uses a
calibration image to identify the correct white level. The camera then uses this white level when adjusting overall image color.
NOTE: Manual white balance is recommended only for indoor applications that have a single primary light source.
For example a C10CH camera is installed in a pan/tilt enclosure inside a clothing store, in a shopping mall. A variety of colors are located
throughout the store. Overhead lights provide the primary illumination, but some light also enters the store from the mall. As the camera pans a
section filled with blue clothing, the camera may redden the image to compensate for the blue. When properly calibrated, the camera will not try
to adjust scenes with predominant amounts of red or blue.
To calibrate the manual white balance, complete the following steps:
1. Focus the camera on a neutral color scene. Select a neutral scene with the following characteristics:
•
•
•
•
Little or no black
Not predominantly red
Not predominantly blue
No direct light source, such as a lamp or a window
2. Select WHITE BALANCE on the FUNCTION SETTINGS menu.
3. Select AUTO. This calibrates the white balance gain to the neutral scene.
4. Change WHITE BALANCE from AUTO to MANUAL. This locks the white balance
gain into camera memory.
NOTE: If you change WHITE BALANCE from MANUAL to a different mode, the stored manual white balance settings are erased. You will
have to perform this procedure again.
5. Select EXIT to close the setup menus.
6. Focus the camera on the target scene.
7. As soon as you finish customizing this and all other camera settings, save your custom settings into the CUSTOM profile. This protects
them if the camera loses power or if it must be restarted (refer to Profiles on page 18 for more information).
