The KP-DE500 is an ultra high sensitivity color camera 
that utilizes the electron multiplication type CCD 
(EM-CCD) image sensor. 
 
The KP-E500 is an ultra high sensitivity camera that 
utilizes the electron multiplication type CCD (EM-CCD)
image sensor. 

Ultra high sensitivity is possible due to the electron 
multiplication (EM) CCD which multiplies the charge on 
the individual pixels before the charge is converted to a 
voltage, eliminating noise that would be associated with 
amplification gain.    Moving images retain the clarity and 
sharpness even under low light conditions. 

 

An RGB primary color mosaic filter is used to produce 
images of high vertical resolution and color fidelity. 
 

  A new Digital Signal Processor (DSP) with improved 

luminance signal processing and a 5 H enhancer is used 
to obtain high quality images with a high signal to noise 
(S/N) ratio.

・

Do not aim the camera lens at the sun. 

・

Do not shoot strong light or a scene including strong light. 
When such a scene is shot, vertical trailings will appear. 

    However, this is not due to failure. 
    In case strong Tight enters the camera through the lens,   

partial deterioration in picture quality will result. 

To obtain stable performance for long time 
    When the camera is used continuously for long time 
    under high ambient temperature, the inside electrical 
  parts become deteriorated, resulting in shortening its life. 

To use the camera continuously for long time, the 

    highest temperature must be below 40℃. 
Cleaning 
・

Use a blower or a lens brush to remove dusts on the 
lens or the optical filter. 

・

Wipe dirts on the case off with dry soft cloth. lf dirks 

 

are hardened, wipe them off with cloth moistened 
with neutral detergent liquid; wipe the cover with dry cloth. 

・

Do not use benzine,thinner,alcohol,liquid cleaner or 
spray-type cleaner. 

・

In event dust or other    debris    is lodged between the CCD 
and optical filter, consult dealer for cleaning by an optical 
technician. 

 

Power supply 
    Be sure to use the power source specified in the Major 
  Specifications. 
・

Before plugging or unplugging a connector, be sure 

    to turn off power. 
    To plug or unplug a connector, be sure to hold the 
  connector section. 
・

Note that it will take several seconds until a picture is 

    displayed on the monitor after power on. 
Handling 
・

Do not attempt to remove cover. 

・

When installing or removing a lens, be sure to use 

    care that water or dust does not enter the inside of. 
  the camera. 
Installing and storage 
    Avoid installing or storing the camera in the following 
  environments. 
・

Environments exposed to direct sunlight, rain or snow 

・

Environments where combustible or corrosive gas 

    exists 
・

Excessively warm or cold environment (Operating 

    ambient temperature: -10 to 50℃) 
・

Humid or dusty environment 

・

Place subjected to excessive vibration or shock 

・

Environment exposed to strong electric or magnetic field
