Precautions for use
≥ Handle the ROP carefully.
Dropping the ROP or subjecting it to strong impact may give rise to malfunctioning or accidents.
≥ Use the ROP in an ambient temperature of 14°F to 113°F (–10°C to +45°C ).
Using the ROP in cold places below 14°F (–10°C) or hot places above 113°F (45°C) may adversely affect its internal parts.
≥ Turn off the power before connecting or disconnecting the cables.
Be absolutely sure to turn off the power before connecting or disconnecting the cables.
≥ Maintenance
Wipe the ROP using a dry cloth. To remove stubborn dirt, dip a cloth into a diluted solution of kitchen detergent, wring it out
well, and wipe the ROP gently.
<Caution>
≥ Avoid using benzine, paint thinners and other volatile fluids.
≥ If a chemical cleaning cloth is to be used, carefully read through the precautions for its use.

Operating procedure
$ Turning on the power
Turn on the power.
First set the power switch on the AC adaptor used for the ROP and the AC power switches on the cameras to ON, and set
the OPERATE switch on the ROP to ON.
$ Adjusting the cable compensation of each camera
For details on providing cable compensation for the cameras, refer to the instruction manual provided with the cable
compensation unit.
$ Genlock adjustments for each camera
If the cameras are to be used in the genlock mode, phase adjustment is required in order to adjust the phases between the
cameras and other units. Genlock adjustment is not needed if genlock is not going to be used.
Horizontal phase adjustment
1 Select the first camera to be adjusted by pressing the CAM CONTROL button.
2 Press the MENU button, and display the camera setting menu on the LCD panel.
3 Turn the CONT dial, and display the G/L SETTING menu.
4 Push the CONT dial straight down, and display H PHASE on the bottom line of the LCD.
5 Observe the waveforms of the genlock signal (black burst signal or video signal (VBS)) and video signal output on an

How to mount the ROP in a rack
<NOTE> ≥ The AW-CB400 is 100 mm wide. If it is to be installed in a full-size rack (which accommodates units totaling
420 mm in width), provide panels or other parts to supplement the AW-CB400’s width so that it will fill the
rack width-wise.
≥ If the AW-CB400 is joined to the AW-RP400, the resulting width will be equivalent to that of the full width of
the rack (which accommodates units totaling 420 mm in width).
1 Remove the rubber caps on the side panels.
2 Use the accessory mounting screws (M4!8 mm) to attach the rack-mounting adaptors. Remove the rubber caps.
