Camera
(1) Camera Identification (CAMERA ID)
You can use the camera identification (CAMERA ID) to assign a name to the camera. The camera ID
consists of up to 16 alphanumeric characters. You can select whether to have the camera ID
displayed on the monitor screen or not.
Note:
See page 20 for the setting.
(2) Light Control (ALC/MANUAL)
You can select the mode for adjusting the lens iris.
The modes are as follows:
ALC:
The lens iris is automatically adjusted according to the brightness of the object.
You can select one of two modes (SUPER-D ON or SUPER-D OFF).
MANUAL:
The lens iris is fixed at the value you have set regardless of the brightness of the object.
• ALC Mode with SUPER-D ON
Super Dynamic Function (SUPER-D)
The important object in a scene is usually placed in the centre of the monitor’s screen. In SUPER-D
mode, more photometric weight is given to the centre of the screen (where the important object is
located) than to the edge of the picture (where a bright backlight would most likely be located).
You can use the SUPER-D function if you select ALC. It eliminates interference by strong background
lighting which makes the camera picture dark, such as a spotlight.
Note:
See page 21 for the setting.
• ALC Mode with SUPER-D OFF
In this mode, the picture is divided into 48 areas. If there is a source of brightness that interferes with
the clarity of the picture in these masks, corresponding areas mask the light to keep the clarity of the
picture.
