Install the lens connector (YFE4191J100) when
using a video drive ALC lens.

Cut the iris control cable at the edge of the lens
connector to remove the existing lens connector
and then remove the outer cable cover of the sup-
plied connector as shown in the diagram.
The pin assignment of the lens connector is as fol-
lows:

Pin 1: Power source; +9 V DC, 50 mA max.
Pin 2: Not used
Pin 3: Video signal; 0.7 V[p-p]/40 k

The lens mount should be a C-mount or CS-mount
(1”-32UN) and the lens weight should be less than
450 

g (0.99 lbs). If the lens is heavier, both the

lens and camera should be secured by using the
supporter.
The protrusion at the rear of the lens should be as
shown below.

C-mount: Less than 13 mm (1/2”)

CS-mount: Less than 8 mm (5/16”)

Solder the lens cable to the pins of the sup-
plied connector.

Before you mount the lens, loosen the screw
on the side of the camera, and rotate the
flange-back adjusting ring clockwise until it
stops. If the ring is not at the end, the inner
lens or CCD image sensor may be damaged.

q Mount the lens by turning it clockwise on the

lens mount of the camera.

w Connect the lens cable to the auto iris lens

connector on the side of the camera.

1. It is recommended to use a monitor whose

resolution is at least equal to that of the cam-
era.

2. The maximum extensible coaxial cable length

between the camera and the monitor is
shown below.

This connector is for connecting with the
VIDEO IN connector of the video monitor.
Whenever the multiplexed vertical drive (VD2)
signal is supplied to this connector, the cam-
era synchronization mode is automatically set
to Vertical Drive.

Connect to 12 V DC (10.5 V-16 V) or

24 V AC (19.5 V-28 V) class 2 power sup-
ply only. Make sure to connect the ground-
ing lead to the GND terminal when the
power is supplied from a 24 V AC power
source.
