PREFACE

Panasonic's GP-US522/532 Industrial Digital Signal Processing Colour 3-CCD Camera overcomes space limitations that have complicated many video applications.

The GP-US522/532 incorporates three 440 000-pixel 752 (H) x 582 (V) Interline Transfer CCDs to give you a

remarkable 800 lines (750 lines for GP-US532) of horizontal resolution and a S/N ratio of 60 dB. This means a colour picture with high visual information content for excellent image detail.

Because it features digital signal processing, the GPUS522/532 provides an exceptionally stable picture.

2.800 lines of horizontal resolution for GP-US522 and 750 lines for GP-US532

3.Signal to noise ratio of 60 dB

4.Minimum scene illumination with + 18 dB gain of 5 lux at F2.8 for GP-US522 and 9 lux at F2.2 for GPUS532

5.Auto Tracing White Balance (ATW), Auto White Balance Control (AWC) or Manual White Balance Control are selectable

6.Automatic Setting of Black Balance (ABC) or Manual Setting

PRECAUTIONS

1.Do not attempt to disassemble the camera or camera control unit.

To prevent electric shock, do not remove screws or covers.

There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Ask a qualified service person for servicing.

2.Handle the camera and the camera control unit with care.

Do not abuse the camera and the camera control unit. Avoid striking, shaking, etc. The camera could be damaged by improper handling or storage.

3.Do not expose the camera or camera control unit to rain or moisture, or try to operate it in wet areas.

Turn the power off immediately and ask a qualified service person for servicing. Moisture can damage the camera and the camera control unit, and also create the danger of electric shock.

4.Do not drop anything inside the camera or camera control unit.

Dropping a metal part for example inside the camera and camera control unit could permanently damage the unit.

5.Do not crush or pinch the camera cable.

Avoid tight bends in the camera cable.

6.Never face the camera toward the sun.

Do not aim the camera at bright objects. Whether the camera is in use or not, never aim it at the sun or other extremely bright objects. Otherwise, blooming or smear may be caused.

7.Do not use strong or abrasive detergents when cleaning the camera or the camera control unit body.

Use a dry cloth to clean the camera or the camera control unit when dirty.

In case the dirt is hard to remove, use a mild detergent and wipe gently.

8.Clean the faceplate with care.

Do not clean the faceplate with strong or abrasive detergents. Use lens tissue or a cotton tipped applicator and ethanol.

9.Put the lens cap on the camera after using the camera.

After using the camera, turn the power of the camera control unit off, and put the lens cap on the camera head.

10.Do not connect units other than the camera head to the GP-US522CU camera control unit.

Other connections may result in improper operation.

11.Do not operate the camera and the camera control unit beyond the specified temperature, humidity, or power source ratings.

Use the camera and the camera control unit under conditions where temperature is between 0°C - +45°C (32°F - 113°F), and humidity is below 90%. The input power resource is 12 V DC.

12.Ask a qualified service person for installation.

All necessary procedures with regard to installation of this product should be made by a qualified service person or system installer.

Cautions:

1.Connecting or disconnecting the camera cable to/from the camera control unit or camera head must be done after turning off the power of the camera control unit.

2.Use the GP-CA522/4 (4 m/13 ft) camera cable only for connection between the camera head and camera control unit. Do not extend the cable.

7.Camera/Colour Bar Selector (CAM/BAR)

This selector is used to select either the video signal or the EBU colour bar signal which is output from the video output connector (VIDEO), YC (S- VIDEO) output connector or RGB (D-SUB, 9-pin) output connector.

CAM :The video signal from the camera is output. BAR : The EBU colour bar signal is output.

Set this switch to BAR when making video monitor adjustments and recording the colour bar signal.

8.White Balance Selector (ATW/AWC/MANU)

This selector is used to select one of the following white balance modes.

ATW : In this mode, the colour temperature is monitored continuously and thereby white balance

is set automatically.

AWC : In this mode, accurate white balance is obtained.

The white balance settings are as follows:

1.Aim the camera at a white chart.

2.Press the ITEM (AWC) button on the front panel to set the white balance.

3.When the auto white balance is completed, the auto warning indicator first blinks and

then goes off.

If the auto warning indicator remains lit, repeat the above procedure for setting the auto white balance.

MANU : The white balance can be adjusted manually with the red gain (R GAIN) and blue gain controls (B GAIN).

9.Auto Warning Indicator

This indicator blinks while the white balance or black balance is being automatically set. This indicator lights continuously when the white balance or black balance is set improperly. In this case, follow the auto white balance or black balance setting procedure.

10.Red and Blue Gain Controls (R GAIN/B GAIN)

These controls are used to manually adjust the white balance.

These controls only work when the white balance selection switch (ATW/AWC/MANU) is set to MANU.

Turn the controls clockwise to increase the red and blue signal levels, and counterclockwise to decrease.

11.Page Button (PAGE)

This button is used to display the SETUP menu by pressing it for 2 seconds or more, and to change the parameters in the SETUP menu.

12.Item Button (ITEM/AWC)

While the SETUP menu is displayed, this button is used to move the cursor downward.

Normally, when the white balance selection switch (ATW/AWC/MANU) is set to AWC, this button is used to set the automatic white balance control (AWC).

13.Left Button (A/ABC)

While the SETUP menu is displayed, this button is used to move the cursor to the left.

Normally, this button is used to set the automatic black balance control (ABC).

14.Right Button (B)

This button is used to move the cursor to the right in the SETUP menu.

15.Scene File Selector (SCENE)

This selector is used to select the scene files.

16.Electronic Light Control ON/OFF Selector (ELC ON/OFF)

This selector is used to select the electronic light control mode as follows:

ON : Enables Electronic Light Control (ELC) mode and disables Electronic Shutter Speed (SHUTTER) mode.

OFF : Enables Electronic Shutter Speed (SHUTTER) mode and disables Electronic Light Control (ELC) mode.

Note :

Confirm the setting of the ELC and SHUTTER parameters on the SETUP menu.

17.Electronic Shutter Speed Control (LEVEL)

This control is used to set the target value of the

Electronic Shutter Speed between 1/50 and 1/10 000 seconds together with the ELC ON/OFF switch.

18.Title Input Connector (TITLE)

This connector is used to connect the optional

Character Generator WJ-KB30 or WJ-KB50.

Note :

The Black and White characters of the generator are mixed with the video signal and are obtained at VIDEO OUT, S-VIDEO (Y/C) OUT and RGB/SYNC OUT connectors.

Colourization of characters is not available.

19.Camera Cable Connector (CAMERA)

This 20-pin connector is used for connection with the camera head via the optional camera cable GP-CA522/4.

Fasten the camera cable to this connector firmly. If not, noise may appear.

Caution:

Connecting or disconnecting the camera cable to/from the camera control unit or camera head must be done after turning off the Power of the camera control unit.

20.Gen-lock Signal Input Connector (VBS/HD)

The colour video signal of the camera is automatically synchronized with the gen-lock signal (Composite Signal, Black Burst Signal or Video Sync) when either signal is supplied to this connector.

The gen-lock signal is used for system reference.

Caution :

If the gen-lock signal is jittery (as in the case of a VTR playback picture), the camera cannot be synchronized properly.

(External HD and VD Mode)

The horizontal and vertical pulse of the colour video signal is synchronized with the external HD fed to this connector and external VD fed to the VD input connector.

21.Gen-Lock Signal Input Connector (VD)

Supply the external vertical drive (VD) pulse to this connector.

22.Gen-Lock Video 75 Termination ON/OFF Switch (75 ON/OFF)

When looping through the gen-lock video signal with a BNC “T” adapter, set this switch to OFF. When not looping through, set this switch to ON.

23.Video Output Connector (VIDEO 1,2)

A 1.0V[p-p]/75 Ω composite video signal is provided at this connector.
