Description of menu display by OSD (On Screen Display)
This camera is equipped with the OSD function of superimposing a
character information on the output digital image signal. Using this
function, the current setting status of the camera can be displayed over
the image of the capture board in menu-driven form.
(Note) This camera is basically designed so that all settings can be done
without this menu display by OSD just like the conventional
cameras of FC series. However the menu display allows the user
to quickly understand the current settings at a glance.
Furthermore, if the contents of the menu display are captured and
saved before collecting data using the camera, they serve as
useful information to be referred when comparing data or setting
additionally introduced cameras.
[Requirement for menu display]
The menu display requires a system that is capable of updating the captured image constantly responding to the timing of
FDV/LDV to be output from the camera on the side of the user‘s capture board.
When the asynchronous shutter mode is set for the camera, the repetitive asynchronous shutter operations are
automatically made at certain intervals to automatically refresh the image so that the menu display is updated. During this
process, the externally input trigger signals are ignored.
The display area of OSD is located on the upper left on the entire area of the captured image, and therefore this system
must be additionally capable of displaying this menu on the screen.
[ON/OFF operation of menu display]
If the OSD menu display does not appear on the capture image, perform the following procedure to display it:
Turn on the power in the normal manner
→
Set the mode switch to “1”
→
Apply an upward stroke to the UP/DOWN switch
To disable the output of the menu display, perform the same procedure except for applying a downward stroke to the
switch.
(Note) Since the ON/OFF setting of the menu display is a configuration item, it is automatically saved in the internal
EEPROM.
(Note) If the menu display is set to be ON in the asynchronous shutter mode, the repetitive trigger (cyclic trigger) that is
generated inside the camera is automatically input. Make sure to set the menu display OFF when the camera is
used in the normal state (online state).
(Note) Note that the difference between the pulse width generated by the camera with the menu display turned on and
that provided by the user unit results in the difference in the brightness of image between those when the
asynchronous shutter operation in the pulse width control mode is set (S.FORM=ASYNC/HIGH,
PWC=ENABLED).
[Description of display content]
MENU 1, 2, C or D: Current setting is displayed.
The following is displayed:
”1”: Set content of Setting Group 1
”2”: Set content of Setting Group 2
”C”: Set content of Setting Group C
”D”: Set content of Setting Group D
MENU:
Current menu status is displayed.
When the menu is being displayed, “ON” is kept displayed.
When “(CYCLIC)” is displayed on the right, the camera is cyclically
outputting the asynchronous shutter image using the internal
trigger to refresh the image.
When the asynchronous shutter mode is set and the menu is set to ON, the cyclic trigger input is
automatically selected. When the menu is set to OFF, the cyclic trigger input is automatically cancelled and
external trigger is ready to be received.
GAIN:
The left number is the gain setting value expressed in the decimal system. (Range: 0 to 255).
The right part shows the effective one among AGC and MGC.
OFFSET:
The set value of the digital signal offset is displayed in the decimal system. (Range: 0 to 255)
S.TIME:
The current shutter speed is displayed. The left number is H number (horizontal synchronous time unit, in
the case of high speed shutter – range: 1 to 1200 <normal scan> or range: 1 to 620 <partial scan> in
decimal system) or V number (vertical synchronous time unit, in the case of low speed shutter – range: 1 to
255 in decimal system). The right number in parentheses shows the actual time.
The actual time is displayed after being converted in accordance with the settings of the scan mode (all
pixels/partial/draft) and shutter mode (HIGH/LOW).
(Note) When the pulse width control mode or double pulse mode is set for the asynchronous shutter operation or when a
shutter setting value is out of the predetermined range in the draft scan mode, the actual time is displayed as “--.-”.
