Structure of the paint adjustment data
The non-volatile memory of the camcorder used
for storing paint adjustment data consists of two
regions as shown below: one is the “main data
block” that is used when a remote control unit is
not connected, and the other is the “remote
control data block” that is used when a remote
control unit is connected. Paint adjustment data is
automatically selected and output to the camera
section depending on whether or not a remote
control unit such as the RM-B170 is connected.
When a remote control unit is connected to the
camcorder, the “remote control data block” is
selected as the current paint data block, and the
paint adjustment parameters that were in effect
the last time the remote control unit was used are
recalled.
The settings of the absolute value rotational
controls
1)
and absolute value switches
2)
are
overwritten by those on the remote control unit
after the remote control unit is connected.
When the remote control unit is disconnected
from the camcorder, the “main data block”
becomes effective. Thus the camcorder will
return to the settings that were in effect before the
remote control unit was connected.
1)
Absolute value rotational controls:
The data
corresponding to the angular position of controls is
output. Rotational controls for which the data
corresponding to the amount of their rotation is
output are called relative value controls.
2)
Absolute value switches:
Like toggle switches or
slide switches (except most momentary switches), the
switches (or knobs) whose positions must coincide
with their functions are called absolute value
switches.
When “MAINTENANCE” > “Camera Config” >
“RM Common Memory” is set to “On” in the
setup menu, you can use settings of the paint
adjustment data stored in the main data block
even if you connect the remote control unit. In
this case, the settings stored in the main data
