Video Connections
Connecting LAMP Contact
The HCD544 camera is equipped with LAMP and GND external contact terminals (see

forced into night mode (see

terminal is disconnected from the GND terminal.
Adjusting the Back Focus
To adjust the back focus, aim the camera towards a darker area, or use a Neutral

between the camera and the target focal area.

Loosen the setscrews (see
) with a Phillips screwdriver.
2.
Set the Zoom lens adjustment to Wide and the Focus lens adjustment to Near.

Adjust the back focus ring to focus the picture.
4.
Retighten the setscrews.
Mounting the Camera
There are mounting points on the top and bottom of the camera (see
) to
mount the camera on a bracket or tripod. Use standard sized mounting bolts to install
the camera to a mounting bracket.

capability.
