You can select the type of auto iris using the SW1 switch, which is located on the CCD board (PK8167) inside the camera.

• Set the switch to the Up position for Direct drive mode (Passive).

• Set the switch to the Down position for Video controlled (Active).

Note: The factory pre-set is Video controlled.

The following functions can be adjusted via the on-screen menu:

• White balance

• Shutter

• Gain

• Back light compensation

• Lens iris

• Gamma

• Scanning reversal

• Sensitive

The white balance function adjusts the color temperature to make the color of the image correct. You can select from the following pre-set and manual options in the on-screen menu:

• 3200 K: For incandescent lamp or halogen lamp.

• 4600 K: For white fluorescent lamp.

• 5600 K: For daylight.

• Auto: The TTL system detects the highest video level in objects to recognize a white color. It is necessary to place the camera in a position where it does not pick up spot lights and fluorescent lights.

• Manual: To adjust the color temperature between 2700 K to 6700 K.

Note: The factory pre-set is auto white balance.

The shutter function is used for “freezing” objects and for light regulation. The following settings are available in the on-screen menu:

• OFF: 1/60 sec. (NTSC), 1/50 sec. (PAL).

• Selectable shutter: 1/125, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000, 1/2000, 1/4000, 1/10,000 sec.

• Flicker-less: 1/100 sec. (NTSC), 1/120 sec. (PAL).

• CCD iris: Shutter speed changes automatically from 1/60 sec. to 1/10000 sec. (NTSC) or 1/50 sec. to 1/10,000 sec. (PAL).

CAUTION:

1. Under certain unique light conditions, strong smear/blooming on highlighted objects or noticeable flicker in the picture may appear.

2. When CCD iris mode is selected, auto or manual iris lens can be used instead of an auto iris lens.

3. In sensitive mode, the CCD iris does not function.

Note: The factory pre-set is OFF.

The following AGC settings are available in the on-screen menu:

• OFF: Gain is fixed at minimum 0 dB.

• +12 dB: AGC ON (0 to +12 dB).

• +24 dB: AGC ON (0 to +24 dB).

• Manual: Manual gain adjustment.

Note: The factory pre-set is AGC OFF. An auto iris lens can be used only when the CCD iris is OFF.

The BLC circuit compensates for extreme highlights in the field of view. There are three pre-defined patterns that can be selected. The higher the value in the pattern, the more backlight compensation is applied.

Pattern 1:

Pattern 2:

Pattern 3:

Note: The factory pre-set is OFF.

CAUTION:

1. BLC only works under specific conditions. It is effective when AGC is ON and CCD iris is ON or OFF. It is not effective when AGC is OFF.

2. It is recommended to switch “BLC OFF” when using the camera with a pan/tilt head or if the scene illumination changes rapidly.

3. With “BLC ON” the regulation speed of the iris is decreased.

f) Gamma

This function sets the gamma correction.

• 0.45: Correction

• 0.6: Correction

• 1.0: Linear

Note: Factory pre-set is 0.45.

g) Scanning Reversal (mirror-effective mode)

This function can change the horizontal scanning between normal and reverse.

• OFF: Normal scanning

• ON: Reversal scanning

Note: Factory pre-set is set at OFF.

h) Frame Integration

The sensitivity can be set at these pre-set positions.

• OFF: Standard sensitivity (Exposure time = 1 field)

• Sensitive 1: 2 times higher than standard sensitivity (Exposure time = 2 fields)

• Sensitive 2: 4 times higher than standard sensitivity (Exposure time = 4 fields)

Note: Factory pre-set is OFF.

Use the “UP”, “DOWN”, and “FUNC” buttons on the rear panel of the camera to control the on-screen menu.

(a) To start adjustment, push the “FUNC” button. The menu will appear on the monitor.

(b) Use “UP” or “DOWN” buttons to choose functions. To select a function, press the “FUNC” button.

(c) After selecting the function, press “UP” or “DOWN” buttons to choose a mode. To select the mode, press the “FUNC” button.

Note: A scroll bar will be displayed for functions like manual white balance, manual AGC, and manual iris, allowing for fine adjustment.

The following functions can be controlled via the RS 232C interface:

• a) White balance: To adjust the color temperature

• b) Electronic shutter: To adjust the shutter speed

• c) Auto gain control: OFF, +12dB, +24dB, manual selectable

• d) Back light compensation: To create your own BLC pattern

• e) Iris level: To adjust the video level

• f) Gamma: 0.45, 0.60, 1.0 selectable

• g) Scanning reversal: To select the scanning direction

• h) Frame integration: To select the sensitivity
