CM-200 GE / CB-200 GE- 55 -13. AppendixPrecautionsPersonnel not trained in dealing with similar electronic devices should not service this camera.The camera contains components sensitive to electrostatic discharge. The handling of these devicesshould follow the requirements of electrostatic sensitive components.Do not attempt to disassemble this camera.Do not expose this camera to rain or moisture.Do not face this camera towards the sun, extreme bright light or light reflecting objects, includinglaser sources.When this camera is not in use, put the supplied lens cap on the lens mount.Handle this camera with the maximum care.Operate this camera only from the type of power source indicated on the camera.Remove power from the camera during any modification work, such as changes of jumper and switchsettings.Typical Sensor CharacteristicsThe following effects may be observed on the video monitor screen. They do not indicate any fault ofthe camera, but do associate with typical sensor characteristics.V. AliasingWhen the camera captures stripes, straight lines or similar sharp patterns, jagged image on themonitor may appear.BlemishesAll cameras are shipped without visible image sensor blemishes.Over time some pixel defects can occur. This does not have a practical effect on the operation of thecamera. These will show up as white spots (blemishes).Exposure to cosmic rays can cause blemishes to appear on the image sensor. Please take care to avoidexposure to cosmic rays during transportation and storage. It is recommended using sea shipmentinstead of air flight in order to limit the influence of cosmic rays to camera.Pixel defects/blemishes also may emerge due to prolonged operation at elevated ambienttemperature, due to high gain setting or during long time exposure. It is therefore recommended tooperate the camera within its specifications.Patterned NoiseWhen the sensor captures a dark object at high temperature or is used for long time integration, fixedpattern noise may appear in the image.Caution when mounting a lens on the cameraWhen mounting a lens on the camera dusts particles in the air may settle on the surface of the lens orthe image sensor of the camera. It is therefore important to keep the protective caps on the lens andon the camera until the lens is mounted. Point the lens mount of the camera downward to prevent dustparticles from landing on the optical surfaces of the camera. This work should be done in a dust freeenvironment. Do not touch any of the optical surfaces of the camera or the lens.ExportationWhen exporting this product, please follow the export regulation of your own country.References1.
