Installation and connection
Set the video setting switches on the camera unit 
before mounting it.
To set the switches, use a fine-tipped screwdriver.

[BLC] Backlight compensation switch.
When the object is placed against the light, 
setting this to 
AONB increases the iris aperture 
by 1 stop and the object will appear clearer.  
(Default setting: OFF)

Service switch.
Ensure to set to 
AONB.
The maximum connection distance varies with 
the type of cable used. Please refer carefully to 
the table for each cable during connection.
* Be sure to turn off the power of devices before 
connecting cables.
Video signal cables
Connect the coaxial cables (BNC) to the video 
signal output connector (BNC).
Installing the Ferrite core
 (TK-C210FW only)
In order to reduce the influence to the screen 
caused by the noise induced from the cable, wind 
both Video signal cable and Input power supply 
cable once to the supplied Ferrite core.

DC 12 V or AC 24 V power supply cable
Connect the DC 12 V or the AC 24 V power 
supply to the DC 12 V/AC 24 V terminals on the 
terminal board. To prevent connection errors or a 
cable disconnection, we recommend the use of 
lug plates for the connections. The following table 
shows the connection distances and connection 
cables provided that 2-conductor VVF cables 
(vinyl-insulated vinyl sheath cables) are used.
CAUTION:
                                                    
● 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.
When the voltage is low, the protection circuit 
within the camera may be triggered and the 
power of the camera may turn off automatically.
● 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:
U-type: Class 2 only
E-type: Isolated power supply only
Electrical Specifications of Alarm Input 
Terminals
(TK-C215V12 only)
● To prevent penetration of noise in the internal 
circuitry, apply a non-voltage contact signal to 
the ALARM input terminal. Never apply a 
voltage.
● Apply an alarm signal for at least 200 ms. If it is 
shorter, it is not guaranteed that the signal will 
be recognized as an alarm signal.
● Under the alarm status (status when the metal 
contact is “make”), select the contact or 
connecting wire such that the maximum wire 
resistance between the ALARM IN and ALARM 
GND is within 150 
K.
