DESCRIPTION
The MCC5600 Series CCD monochrome camera combines high resolution imaging with a
very compact package. This camera features the following:
1/3-Inch Format Monochrome CCD
This camera uses a 1/3-inch monochrome CCD (charged coupled device) interline transfer
sensing element.
Electronic/Passive Iris Control
Built-in, 4-pole iris drive connector allows this camera to be used with passive (DC
controlled) auto-iris lenses.
Lens Compatibility
The standard CS-mount and built-in DC iris control allows this camera to be used with a
wide variety of lenses, including C/CS-mount lenses in the following styles: fixed iris,
manual iris, or passive (DC controlled) auto-iris lenses. C-mount lenses require a C/CS-
mount adapter.
Automatic Gain Control
Automatically adjusts the image to compensate for changes in light levels when using fixed
iris or manual iris lenses.
AC Line Lock
Automatically locks the camera to the AC frequency (60 Hz)–when using AC power
sources–instead of the camera’s internal clock frequency (59.94 Hz) to avoid picture roll
during camera switching operations.
AC or DC Power Compatibility
This camera will automatically adjust to either AC or DC class 2 power supplies.

POWER REQUIREMENTS
An external power supply (not provided) is required when using MCC5600 Series cameras.
This camera will accept either AC or DC power in accordance with the chart immediately
below. A safety ground terminal ( ) is provided on the connector block to connect the
camera to ground potential. Maximum voltage between the supply inputs and the safety
ground must be less than 50 volts. Camera electronics are galvanically insulated from the
camera supply, which protects a system with more than one camera from ground loop
problems. The power connector block can be removed from the camera to ease mounting
and/or installation.

POWER AND VIDEO CONNECTIONS
If you are using AC power and are wiring more than one camera to the same transformer,
connect one side of the transformer to the same terminal on all cameras, and connect the
other side of the transformer to the remaining terminal on all cameras. Failure to connect all
of the cameras the same will cause the cameras to be out of phase with each other and
may produce what appears to be vertical roll when switching between cameras.
WARNING: Be
sure to connect the
power and ground
leads to the appropriate ter-
minals. Wrong connections
may cause malfunction and/
or damage to the video
camera.
Connect a video cable to the SIGNAL OUT connector (BNC) on the rear of the camera
(refer to Figure 1). Refer to Table A for the type of video coaxial cable to use.

LENS INSTALLATION
GENERAL LENS INFORMATION
MCC5600 Series cameras are factory adjusted to the CS-mount standard. Fixed iris,
manual iris, or passive (DC controlled) auto-iris lenses may be used. Passive (DC
controlled) auto-iris lenses require a standard 4-pin square connector (type D4-152N, not
supplied) that is standard on all Pelco lenses.
C-mount lenses are also compatible by using a Pelco PCMA40 C/CS-mount adapter. Refer
to Figure 4.
Important Lens Notes:
Passive (DC controlled) auto-iris lenses are recommended in outdoor applications to
control lighting changes and prevent picture smear.
This camera will not support active (video controlled) auto-iris lenses (having a built-in
electronic circuit for driving the iris).

LENS MOUNTING
Do not release the back-focus locking ring unnecessarily. Back-focus adjustment has been
set at the factory to the standard CS-mount back-focus distance.
To mount a lens:
1. Remove the black protection cover from the CS-mounting ring.
2. If using a C-mount lens, mount a C/CS-mount adapter between lens and camera.
Refer to Figure 4.
3. Screw the lens on the camera. Be careful to prevent dust from entering the space
between the lens and the CCD element. If necessary, use clean, compressed air to
remove any foreign matter.
4.
When using a passive (DC controlled) auto-iris lens, connect the iris cable to the iris
connector on the back of the camera. Refer to the Auto-Iris Lenses section.
5. Aim the camera and focus the lens to the object or area to be observed.
6. If a manual-iris lens is used, adjust the iris for the best picture quality. The largest
aperture gives the best light sensitivity, the smallest aperture the greatest depth of
field.
AUTO-IRIS LENSES
Passive auto-iris lenses are DC controlled via the 4-pin iris drive connector (type D4-152N)
located on the back of the camera (refer to Figure 1). When an auto-iris lens is used the
electronic shutter speed is fixed at 1/60th of a second for EIA-standard cameras or 1/50th
of a second for CCIR-standard cameras. The electronic shutter speed feature does not
apply to the MCC5601-2 model since this function has been disabled.
Pin connections for the iris drive connector are as follows (refer to Figure 1):

BACK-FOCUS ADJUSTMENT
Do not release the back-focus locking ring unnecessarily. Back-focus adjustment has been
set at the factory to the standard CS-mount back-focus distance.
NOTE: The iris cable of a
(passive) auto-iris lens pre-
vents the lens being rotated
more than 180 degrees. In
this case, disconnect the iris
cable, rotate the lens a full
turn, reconnect the iris cable
and continue the adjust-
ment.
Back-focus is defined as the distance between the lens optics and the camera’s CCD
sensing element.
Accurate back-focus becomes most critical when tracking stationary objects with a
motorized zoom lens. In rare cases, however, a camera that gives an unsharp picture using
a particular lens may require back-focus adjustment.
Fixed Focal Length Lenses
NOTE: When adjusting
back-focus with an auto-iris
lens, the iris cable must be
plugged into the iris drive
connector; otherwise, the
iris will not open.
1.
With the camera operating, position the camera to view the intended object.
2. Set the focus ring, if present, to infinity (∞).
3. Set the lens iris to its widest usable opening. Use a neutral density filter with auto-iris
lenses in outdoor or bright light settings to ensure maximum iris opening during back-
focus adjustment. When a neutral density filter is not available, point the camera to a
relatively dark area to obtain the greatest iris opening.
4. Adjust the back-focus.
a. Turn the back-focus locking ring counterclockwise to loosen the CS-mount ring.
8
Pelco Manual C1926M (3/99)
b. Adjust the lens and the CS-mount ring together until picture is sharpest.
c. Hold the lens and CS-mount ring in place and turn the back-focus locking ring
clockwise to tighten.
Motorized Zoom Lenses
1. With the camera operating, position the camera to view an object at a distance not
less than 45 feet (15 meters) away.
2. Using the camera controller, set the lens in the following manner:
a. Zoom out as far as possible (zoom wide).
b. Focus on the distant object (focus far).
c. Open the iris as wide as possible (iris open). Use a neutral density filter with
auto-iris lenses in outdoor or bright light settings to ensure maximum iris opening
during back-focus adjustment. When a neutral density filter is not available, point
the camera to a relatively dark area to obtain the greatest iris opening.
3. Adjust back-focus until the object is in sharpest focus.
a. Turn the back-focus locking ring counterclockwise to loosen the CS-mount ring.
b. Adjust the lens and the CS-mount ring together until picture is sharpest.
c. Hold the lens and CS-mount ring in place and turn the back-focus locking ring
clockwise to tighten.
4. Zoom in all the way on the distant object, then focus the lens for best picture.
5. Zoom out all the way while observing the focus on the monitor (known as “tracking”). If
the image stays in focus throughout the entire zoom range, the back-focus is correct.
Otherwise repeat the process beginning with step 1.
CAMERA SYNCHRONIZATION AND V-PHASE
When using a DC power supply, synchronization is internally locked and V-phase control is
inoperative.
V-phase adjustment is unnecessary when using AC power with a single camera.
When using more than one camera and AC power, phase differences may occur as a result of
being connected to different power groups. These phase differences become apparent as a
brief rolling of the picture each time cameras are switched, commonly referred to as vertical roll.
Vertrical roll can be corrected by synchronizing, or linelocking, the cameras to one another
by adjusting the V-phase potentiometer on the back of the camera (refer to, Figure 1).
V-phase is adjustable between 0 to 240 degrees.
The MCC5600 Series cameras generate a video signal with synchronization pulses
corresponding to the following:
MCC5600-2 EIA Standard
MCC5600-2X CCIR Standard
MCC5601-2 EIA Standard
V-PHASE ADJUSTMENT
Generally, it is necessary to have two people in communication when cameras are
synchronized: one person at the camera to be synchronized and a person at the monitor to
observe the vertical “roll” and the effect of any adjustments made at the camera.
1. Choose a camera to which all of the other cameras will be synchronized. Go through
the available cameras and determine the best camera to which the others should be
synchronized.
Pelco Manual C1926M (3/99)
9
2. Select a second camera that is out of synchronization with the first camera.
3. Adjust V-phase using a small Phillips screwdriver.
4. Switch the cameras back and forth, observing the “roll” between the cameras when
they are switched.
5. If roll is present, turn the potentiometer in small increments, observing the “roll” each
time an adjustment is made.
6. Repeat this process as many times as necessary and for each of the other cameras in
the system.
TROUBLESHOOTING
The following conditions may be observed when using a CCD camera and are not
necessarily a fault of the camera.
Vertical smear
This may occur when viewing a bright object or an
intense reflection.
Patterned noise and blemish A fixed pattern may appear over the entire monitor
screen when the camera is operated at a high
temperature.
Jagged picture
Becomes noticeable when viewing stripes, straight
lines, or similar patterns.
Camera does not operate
There are no serviceable parts on MCC5600
Series cameras. If a camera fails to function
properly, confirm that all necessary connections
are in order and that lens adjustments are correct
for the application.
MAINTENANCE
Be careful not to spill water or other liquids on the unit.
Avoid operating or storing the unit in the following locations:
Extremely hot or cold places. The operating temperature of MCC5600 Series cameras
is -4° to 131°F (-20° to 55°C). Storage temperature is -13° to 158°F (-25° to 70°C).
Damp or dusty places
Where it may become exposed to rain
Locations subject to strong vibrations
Near generators of powerful electromagnetic radiation such as radio or television
transmitters
Remove dust or dirt on the surface of the lens or optical filter with a blower.
Clean the body with a dry cloth. If it is very dirty, use a cloth dampened with a small quantity
of neutral detergent, then wipe dry. Avoid the use of volatile solvents such as thinners,
benzene, alcohol, and insecticides. They may damage the surface finish, or impair the
operation of the cameras.
