2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The TOA C-CV44-3 is an outdoor-use high-resolution camera equipped with a 1/4” CCD. Its water-resistant  
design permits it to be mounted to outdoor walls or ceilings with no need to protect it from rain and the  
elements. Because the camera angle can be freely moved, a wide range of subjects can be monitored,  
regardless of installation location. The C-CV44-3 is designed to operate on 24 V AC or 12 V DC, which are  
supplied by an external power supply unit. Since its 2X vari-focal, auto-iris lens is built inside the camera, its  
angle of view can be manually adjusted.  
3. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS  
• Do not point the camera toward the sun or other strong lighting or reflected light.  
• Avoid jarring or striking the camera, as the camera may fail.  
• Install the camera in locations where the temperature range does not exceed –10°C to +50°C, and no dew  
condensation is formed.  
• To clean, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Never use benzene, thinner or chemically-treated towel to avoid  
damage to the camera’s finish.  
• To clean the lens, use a camera blower or lightly wipe with lens cleaning paper.  
• Picture quality may suffer if camera cables are wired close to other electrical equipment, such as fluorescent  
lamps. In such cases, reroute the wiring.  
• Monitor screen pictures may become distorted or roll if the camera is used in locations influenced by strong  
electrical or magnetic fields from television transmission antennas, motors or transformers. In such cases,  
install the cables inside sheet steel cable conduit.  
• Use the external power supply unit of the following rating when the camera is operated on 12 V DC.  
12 V DC, over 1.0 A

6. Adjust the angle of view with the Zoom ring and adjust the focus with the Focus ring for the best possible  
picture reproduction.  
Notes  
• Since the Iris control (for sensitivity adjustment) is factory-preset to an optimum position for general use,  
avoid tampering with it in normal conditions. Turning the control unnecessarily could cause reduced picture  
quality or equipment failure. When the Iris control needs to be readjusted to match a specific subject, first set  
both the Adjustment switch and the Backlight Correction switch of the Mode setting switch to the OFF  
position, then adjust the control to an optimum level. After adjustment, place a hand over the lens for several  
seconds and then release to check the lens for correct iris operation.  
• If the focus is adjusted for a subject under good lighting conditions, the subject may go out of focus when  
conditions become dark. To avoid this, adjust the lens focus after setting the Adjustment switch of the Mode  
setting switch to the ON position. Be sure to switch it back to the OFF position after completing lens  
adjustment.  
7. After completing all necessary adjustments, disconnect the RCA pin jack connected to the Monitor output  
terminal in Step 2.  
8. Tighten both the bracket and camera mounting bolts, then mount the front cover.  
Note: If the front cover is not securely fastened, its water-resistant properties will be compromised, possibly  
resulting in equipment failure.
