(4) Gain Control (AGC)
You can set the gain (brightness level portion of an image) to automatic level adjustment ON (LOW,
MID, HIGH) or fixed level (OFF).
See page 26 for the setting.
(5) Synchronization (SYNC)
You can select the internal sync (INT) mode or the line-lock sync (LL) mode. Additionally, this model
accepts the VD2 signal (multiplexed vertical drive signal with the composite video output signal) from
a specified component. Whenever the VD2 signal is supplied to this camera, the camera automatical-
ly switches to the VD2 sync mode.
When you select the line-lock sync (LL) mode, you can adjust vertical phase.
See page 26 for the setting.
(6) White Balance (WHITE BAL)
You can select one of two modes for white balance adjustment as follows.
• Auto-Tracing White Balance (ATW)
In this mode, the colour temperature is monitored continuously and thereby white balance is set auto-
matically. The colour temperature range for the proper white balance is approx.2 600 to 6 000 K.
Proper white balance may not be obtained under the following conditions:
1. The colour temperature is out of the 2 600 to 6 000 K range.
2. When the scene contains mostly high colour temperature (bluish) objects, such as a blue sky.
3. When the scene is dim.
In these cases, select the AWC mode.
• Automatic White Balance Control (AWC)
In this mode, accurate white balance is obtained within a colour temperature range of approx. 2 300
to 10 000 K.
See page 28 for the setting.
(7) Auto Focus (AF MODE)
The camera adjusts the focus automatically by sensing the centre of the picture.
See page 29 for details.
MANUAL:
Auto-focus is activated only when the AF key on the controller is pressed.
AUTO:
Auto-focus is activated automatically while a manual pan, tilt or zoom operation is performed.
(8) Special Menu (SPECIAL)
This menu allows you to adjust and set up the following items and functions: chroma level, aperture
level, pedestal level, demo mode function, digital noise reduction function and refresh function.
You can also reset your parameters to the values preset at the factory.
See page 30 for the setting.
