PREFACE  
FEATURES (With GP-KS162 H)  
The Panasonic Camera Control Unit GP-KS162CU is  
designed to use with the optional Camera Head GP-  
KS162H.  
1. 1/2 inch Interline CCD image sensor with 768 (H) x 492  
(V) pixels.  
2. 480 lines of horizontal resolution.  
This system overcomes space limitations that have compli-  
cated many video applications. Weight of only 0.04 lbs (16  
g), this remarkably compact CCTV camera measures only  
two-thirds of an inch in diameter and less than two inches  
in length. GP-KS162CU Remote Control Unit (CCU) and  
optional camera head GP-KS162H can be extended up to  
33 feet(10-meter) away, using an optional 33-feet (10-  
meter) cable. So the exceptionally manueurable GP-KS162  
series lets you obtain a whole new world of camera angles  
and shots that were once quite difficult to achieve. With the  
380,000-element, 1/2-inch CCD pick-up device, horizontal  
resolution is more than 480 lines, and signal-to-noise ratio  
is 50 dB. An Auto Light Selection Switch and lets you obtain  
clear, high-quality color images in light as low as 0.3 foot-  
candle (3 lux at F1.4).  
3. 0.3 footcandle (3 lux) at F1.4 of minimum scene illumi-  
nation.  
4. 50 dB of signal to noise ratio.  
5. Selectable trough the Lens Auto Tracing White  
Balance (ATW), Auto White Balance Control (AWC) or  
Manual White Balance Control.  
6. Auto Light Control Switch enables to control the video  
output level to constant level whatever the object  
brightness may be.  
7. Video Level Control enables to adjust the video level to  
your preference.  
8. The preset 1, preset 2 and automatic setting mode are  
provided for Back Light Compensation (BLC) function.  
9. 2-memory AWC mode is available.  
10. DC 12V operation  
In addition, a small diameter wide-angle lens developed by  
Matsushita makes high resolution standard even with sub-  
jects as close as 4/5th of an inch away.  
11. 33-feet (10-meter) of maximum cable length between  
camera head and camera control unit with optional  
camera cable.  
Color changes are sensed instantly and compensated for  
by a microcomputer in the GP-KS162CU. Proper white bal-  
ance is then obtained via the built-in-Auto Tracing White  
Balance (ATW) circuit. Both White Balance and R and B  
color can also be adjusted manually, for optimum color  
reproduction.  
12. S-VHS Video Output is provided.  
The camera head can be used with most existing camera  
systems. And VTR, video printer or floppy disk recorder, for  
a host of new and traditional applications.

rain or moisture, or do not try to operate it in wet areas.  
Do take immediate action if ever the camera or camera  
control unit do become wet. Turn power off and refer  
servicing to qualified service personnel.  
• Connect this to a DC12V, 0.5 A - 0.7 A CLASS 2 Power  
supply only.  
Moisture can damage the camera and camera control  
unit and also create the danger of electric shock.  
• After using the camera, turn OFF the power ON/OFF  
Switch and put the lens cap on the camera head.  
• Ambient Temperature range  
Do not install the camera in the place which is beyond  
14 °F - 104 °F (10°C - +40 °C).  
• Every necessary procedures with regard to install this  
product should be made by qualified service person-  
nel or system installers.  
• Do not drop anything inside the camera.  
Dropping metal for example inside the camera could  
permanently damage the unit.  
Caution:  
Connecting or disconnecting camera cable to/from the  
camera control unit must be done after turning OFF the  
Power ON/OFF Switch. Otherwise, the camera head may  
be damaged.  
• Never crush or pinch the camera cable.  
Do not bend the camera cable into a curve whose  
radius is too small.  
• Never face the camera is in use, never face it toward  
the sun.  
• Never face the camera toward the sun  
whether the camera is in use or not, never face it

optional camera cable.  
Caution: Connecting or disconnecting the camera  
cable must be done after turning OFF the Power  
ON/OFF Switch.  
ATW : The white balance is automatically and contin-  
uously set by detecting the characteristic /  
color temperature of light source through the  
lens and controlling the gain of red and blue  
signal even if the characteristic / color temper-  
ature varies.  
10. S-Video Output Connector (S-VIDEO OUT)  
The luminance (Y) and chroma (C) signals for S-VHS  
VCR or monitor are provided at this connector.
