Installing the Expansion Unit
Installing the Camera Expansion Unit (CV-X250/X270 only)
Use a camera expansion unit CA-E800
(sold separately) to which a camera
input unit has been connected in order
to increase the number of cameras to
connect.
Remove the protective cover of
connector 1 from the right side of the
controller, and then install the camera
expansion unit as shown on the right.
Installing the Illumination Expansion Unit
To control lighting from a controller, use an illumination expansion unit (sold
separately). One CA-DC10E unit (two individual lighting units), up to four
CA-DC21E units (eight individual lighting units), or up to two CA-DC30E
units (four individual lighting units) can be connected (you cannot connect a
mixture of the CA-DC10E with the CA-DC21E, or the CA-DC10E with the
CA-DC30E). Remove the protective cover of connector 2 from the left side
of the controller and install the illumination expansion unit as shown below.
Installing the Controller
The controller unit and other units are
designed to be mounted on a DIN rail.
Pull the tab on the bottom in the direction
of the arrow to mount or dismount the
controller.
Connecting the Camera Cables
Connect the camera to the camera connector of the controller unit using
one of the optional camera cables.
If connecting only a single camera, attach it to the CAM1 connector.
Using the repeater for camera cable extension
The camera cable can be extended by using the extension repeater for
the camera cable.
Connecting the 24 VDC Power Source
1
Connect 24 VDC and 0 V to the power supply terminals.
• Turn off the power to the controller when connecting or
removing a unit. Connecting or removing a unit while the
power is being supplied may damage the controller or
peripheral devices.
• If you will not connect units to the controller, do not remove
the connector protective cover from the controller. Using the
controller with the connector exposed may cause damage to
the controller.
• When mounting the illumination expansion unit (CA-DC21E
and CA-DC30E), always mount the supplied attachments.
The main unit and the illumination expansion unit can be
damaged if the supplied attachments are not mounted (the
CA-DC10E mounts directly to the controller without using the
attachments).
• Turn off the power to the illumination expansion unit when
removing the illumination head for the illumination expansion
unit CA-DC30E. Removing the illumination head while the
power is being supplied may damage the controller or
peripheral devices.
Mount the controller in a stable location that is free from
vibration.

NOTICE
• Bundle cables with spiral tubing material. Direct bundling will
concentrate the cable load on the bindings, which can result
in cable damage or a short circuit.
• In the absence of other specifications, the minimum cable
flexibility (R) should be 3 times the external diameter (5 times
is recommended). Additionally, repeated curvature and
screw stress should be avoided. The minimum bend radius is
the same, even when using high-flex cable. Unless otherwise
stated, use R100 or greater.
• Camera cables CA-CN17, CA-CN17L, and CA-CN17R can
only be used to connect the CV-035C and CV-035M.
• Only CA-CH* camera cables can be used with the high-
speed camera (CV-H**** series).
• Do not connect the cables to other cameras. Doing so may
result in a malfunction.
• Use electrical wiring AWG14 to AWG22.
• Make sure to connect the frame ground terminal for the 24
VDC power source to a type D ground.
• The sizes of solderless connectors are shown below. Use
connectors that fit M3 screws.
• Tighten the screws with a torque of 0.5 to 0.75 Nm.
