Notes
1) This video camera/recorder incorporates a laser emitter block and high-voltage section: Perform adjustment only with the
product fully assembled.
2) All adjustments are performed using the adjustment program and personal computer (PC). The adjustment program is
subject to change without notice for improvements in functions and operability, and the actual instructions on PC screen
may be different from those in this manual: If so, follow the instructions on PC screen to proceed with adjustment.
3) The adjustment program will not operate normally unless the video camera/recorder, PC and test equipment/jigs are all
turned on.
4) Be sure to connect the video output of video camera/recorder to a color video monitor (terminate the video output with
75 ohm: If the video output is not connected to the monitor (and if it is not terminated with 75 ohm), the output video signal
level cannot be measured correctly.
5) Use light box that does not flicker and whose color temperature is controlled, for adjustment. If an inappropriate light box is
used, precise adjustment will not be possible, and the adjustment program will not operate normally.
6) Take care with the following when pointing the video camera/recorder at a chart (light box):
Focus the chart correctly.
Set the chart (light box) 30-50 cm away from the lens surface, and avoid any effects from surrounding light (except for
a case where some designation is given).
Aim at the chart and let chart fill the screen (video period). (Except for a case where some designation is given.)
