1.Getting Started Features ● Supersensitive and high-performance camera that realizes a horizontal resolution of 850 lines and F13/ 2000 lx via three and a half inch CCD and 12-bit DSP processing. Enables camera control and hence offers a wide range of uses via use of cameras for high resolution monitoring, relay, data transmission, weddings and conventions with a swivel base.
English Points to Note During Use • For important shootings, perform trials in advance to ensure that they are properly recorded. • We will not compensate for contents lost due to the malfunction of this unit. Characteristic CCD Phenomena • Smear and Blooming When shooting a bright light source, the CCD may induce white streaks (smear) in the vertical direction of the light source. When the light source is extremely bright, light of the surroundings may expand (blooming).

When the lens is mounted for the first time, adjust back focus of the lens if the focus for telephoto/wide angle during zoom is not aligned. • Check whether the macro ring has been moved before adjustment. If so, restore the macro fixing knob to the original position. • Place the camera at a distance of 3 m or further away from the object. The best will be to use the Siemens Star Chart as the object. 3. 4., 6. Zoom Lens 5. RET 1. 2. 3. Set iris mode switch of lens to M (manual). 4.
3. Setting and Adjustment During Shooting (continued) White Balance Adjustment Colour of light (colour temperature) may vary with light sources. When light source for illumination of object is changed, adjust white balance (AUTO WHITE) again. Do not place strong reflectors such as metals near the object. This may cause error in achieving white balance. White balance adjustment includes Auto White, Full-time Auto White (FAW), manual and preset.
English White Balance Adjustment (continued) Error Display AUT O WH ITE 1 N G : OB J ECT Object Error When auto white adjustment is not correctly ended, the following message will be displayed for about 3 seconds. ● “NG:OBJECT” (Object Error) Displayed when there is little white colour in the object or when colour temperature is not appropriate. Change to a white object and perform procedures again to achieve white balance.
3. Setting and Adjustment During Shooting (continued) White Shading Adjustment There are cases when white balance is achieved for the center of the screen but not for the upper and lower ends, hence causing other colours to appear with green or magenta. This is brought about by the lens characteristics. The process of rectifying this is known as white shading. [ ] Perform the following setting upon adjusting white balance. ☞ Page 20 [ ] [MENU] [SET] AW BARS MENU REMOTE GENLOCK IN SET 1.
