2. Light Control Setting (ALC)

2-1. ALC Mode with SUPER-D2 ON

Super Dynamic2 Function (SUPER-D2)

The important object in a scene is usually placed in the center of the monitor screen. In the SUPERD2 mode, more photometric weight is given to the center of the screen (where the important object is located) than to the edge of the screen (where a bright backlight would most likely be located). The SUPER-D2 function eliminates interference by strong background lighting which makes the camera picture dark, such as a spotlight.

BW Setting

1. Move the cursor to BW and select AUTO1, 2, ON or OFF using

I(L) or I(R). Factory

default setting: OFF. AUTO1: The camera selects black and white

mode if the picture is dark, or color mode if the picture is bright enough.

AUTO2: Applying AUTO1 may cause malfunc-

tion when using a source of near-infrared light at night because the illuminance changes significantly when switching between the color picture and a black-and-white picture. This can be prevented by using the AUTO2 setting to detect the type of light source.

Notes:

• Because the type of light source is detected based on information received from the CCD image pickup element, an object that is constantly moving or has the same color as its background may not always be properly recognized. When choosing the AUTO2 mode, make sure to use a light source having a wavelength of 800 nm or more.

• The object may be out of focus when using a source of near-infrared light than using the visible light.

ON: The black and white mode is selected. OFF: The color mode is selected.

2. If you have selected AUTO1, 2 the LEVEL and the DURATION TIME appear on the menu.

3. Select HIGH or LOW for the threshold level at which the camera automatically switches to BW or color mode. Default: HIGH The illuminance shown below is based on the assumption that the camera is used in an area lit by halogen lamps, and that AGC on the menu is set to MID. Note: When near-infrared lamps are used, the image may be displayed out of focus and mode

switching may not perform automatically.

4. Move the I cursor to set DURATION TIME. Default: 30 seconds The camera determines whether to switch the mode when the time set for holding a picture motionless on the screen has elapsed.

Available duration times: (S) 10 s ↔ 30 s ↔ 60 s ↔ 300 s (L)

7. To obtain the optimum detection level, move the “I” cursor to adjust the level.

8. Repeat the procedures above to obtain a satisfactory setting.

Notes:

• Masking or adjusting the detection level is needed to prevent malfunction under the following conditions:

• When shooting an object under flickering fluorescent light.

• When leaves or curtains etc. are swayed by the wind.

• When the object is lighted by lighting equipment that constantly turns on and off.

• It takes about 0.2 seconds for the alarm signal to reach the alarm terminal of the VCR after the camera detects the object. Because the alarm signal is multiplexed on the video signal, it may be mistakenly interpreted by other video equipment as a time code signal. Therefore, when the camera is not used in a Panasonic Intelligent CCTV System, select OFF to prevent the above from occurring.

• The camera will deactivate the detector for a few minutes after the power of the camera is turned on or the BW setting in the Special Menu is set to something other than OFF.

• The motion detection function is not designed specifically for prevention of theft, fire, etc.

The preset values for SENS UP (electronic sensitivity enhancement) change by pressing I(L) or I(R) as shown right:

Notes:

• When ON is selected for SUPER-D2 in the ALC CONT menu, FIX is not available for this item.

• When you select AUTO for SENS UP and ON for SUPER-D2, the SENS UP function has priority so that the SUPER-D2 function is not activated automatically.

• While the SENS UP function is selected, noise, spots or a whitish phenomenon may appear in the picture when the sensitivity of the camera is increased. This is a normal phenomenon.

6. Synchronization Setting (SYNC)

You can select internal sync (INT) mode, line-lock (LL) mode or the VD2 signal (multiplexed vertical drive signal) mode.

Important Notices:

1. The priority for the sync modes is as follows: (1) Multiplexed Vertical Drive (VD2) (Highest priority) (2) Line-lock (LL) (3) Internal Sync (INT) (Lowest priority)

2. The line-lock mode has a submenu for line-lock vertical phase adjustment. If the camera instal-

lation is relocated, check the vertical phase adjustment again since the AC line phase may be different.

6-1. Line-lock Sync Mode (LL)

1. Move the cursor to SYNC and select LL.

Note: The settings in this menu can be made

only when the multiplexed vertical drive signal (VD2) is not supplied to the camera.

2. After confirming that the cursor is on LL, press

I(S). The vertical phase adjustment menu appears on the monitor screen.

3. Supply the video output signal of the camera

to be adjusted and the reference camera video output signal to a dual-trace oscilloscope.

4. Set the oscilloscope to the vertical rate and expand the vertical sync portion on the oscillo-

scope.

5. Move the cursor to COARSE. The cursor is

highlighted.

6. Press

I(L) or I(R) to match the vertical

phase for both video output signals as closely as possible. (COARSE adjustment can be incremented in 16 steps by 22.5 degrees by pressing

I(L) or I(R).)

Note: After the sixteenth step, the adjustment

returns to the first step.

7. Move the cursor to FINE.

8. Press

I(L) or I(R) to match the vertical phase for both video output signals as closely as

possible. (FINE adjustment can be made by up to 22.5 degrees by pressing

I(L) or I(R).)

Notes:

• When the “I” cursor reaches the “+” end, it jumps back to “–”. At the same time, COARSE is incremented by one step to enable a continuous adjustment. The reverse takes place when the “I” cursor reaches the “–” end.

• When

I(L) or I(R) is kept pressed for a second or more, the “I” cursor moves faster.

• To reset COARSE and FINE to the values preset at the factory, press

I(L) and I(R)

simultaneously. COARSE and FINE adjustments are preset at the factory to zero-crossing of the AC line phase.

• If the AC line contains noise (spike noise, etc.), the stability of the vertical phase of the camera video output signal may be disturbed.

• The input power source is 24 V AC only.

7. White Balance Setting (WHITE BAL)

7-1. Auto-Tracing White Balance Mode (ATW)

You can select one of three modes for white balance adjustment as follows: The factory default setting is ATW1.

•ATW1 (Auto-Tracing White Balance 1)

Move the cursor to WHITE BAL and select ATW1. In this mode, the color temperature is monitored continuously and thereby white balance is automatically set. The color temperature range for the proper white balance is approximately 2 600 - 6 000K. Proper white balance may not be obtained under the following conditions:

1. The color temperature is out of the 2 600 6 000K range.

2. When the scene contains mostly high color temperature objects, such as a blue sky or sunset.

3. When the scene is dim.

In these cases, select the AWC mode.

•ATW2 (Auto-Tracing White Balance 2)

Auto-tracing white balance in sodium light mode (ATW2) When that you select ATW2 for sodium light, white balance is set automatically (no operation needed).

Note: ATW1 and ATW2 do not appear for WHITE BAL on the system controller setup menu.

• Automatic White Balance Control Mode (AWC)

In this mode, accurate white balance is obtained within a color temperature range of approximately 2 300-10 000K.

1. Move the cursor to WHITE BAL and select AWC

→ PUSH SW.

2. Press

I(S) to start the white balance setup.

The PUSH SW is highlighted to indicate that the white balance is being set.

3. When the white balance setting is completed, the PUSH SW returns to normal display. Note: If white balance is not set, the PUSH SW

is being highlighted.

2-2. ALC Mode with SUPER-D2 OFF

1. Move the cursor to SUPER-D2 and select OFF. The MASK SET appears on the menu.

2. Move the cursor to MASK SET and press I(S). The 48 mask areas appear on the monitor screen. The cursor is blinking in the upper left corner of the screen.

3. Move the cursor to the area where backlight is bright and press

I(S) to mask that area. The

mask turns to white. (When the cursor is moved on an area that has already been masked, the mask and cursor start blinking.)

4. Repeat step 3 to mask the desired area. To cancel masking, move the cursor to that area and press

I(S).

5. After masking is completed, press

I(S) for 2

seconds or more. The ALC CONT menu appears.

6. If you want to change the video output level (picture contrast), move the “I” cursor for LEVEL and adjust the level.

Note: If ON is selected for SUPER-D2, a shadow

(black line) may appear at the boundary between the bright and the dim scene. This is a natural phenomenon and does not indicate trouble.

3. Shutter Speed Setting (SHUTTER)

Note: To select electronic shutter speed, select OFF for SUPER-D2 in the ALC CONT menu.

Move the cursor to SHUTTER and select the electronic shutter speed.

The preset values for SHUTTER (electronic shutter speed) change by pressing

I(L) or I(R) as

follows: The factory default setting is ---. Note: When SUPER D2 is set to ON, a dotted line appears for the shutter speed, and you cannot

select it.

4. Gain Control Setting

You can set the gain (brightness level portion of an image) to automatic level adjustment. Move the cursor to AGC and select automatic level adjustment [AGC ON (LOW, MID, HIGH)/OFF (fixed level)].

• Gain Control [AGC ON (LOW/ MID/ HIGH)/OFF]

Move the cursor to AGC and select ON (LOW), ON (MID), ON (HIGH) or OFF. The factory default setting is ON (HIGH).

Note: Even if AGC is set to ON and if the noise reduction function is enabled, afterimages may

be produced by shooting a moving object.

•Digital Noise Reduction (DNR)

DNR may be used to improve quality under low light conditions. There are 2 levels of DNR, which may be selected depending on local site conditions. You may need to try different settings to find the most suitable conditions for your application. Move the cursor to DNR and select LOW or HIGH.

LOW: DNR level is low. HIGH: DNR level is high.

The factory default setting is HIGH.

5. Electronic Sensitivity Enhancement (SENS UP)

There are two modes for SENS UP.

AUTO: If you select X10 AUTO, for example, the sensitivity is automatically raised to X10 max.

When AUTO is selected, AGC is automatically set to ON. FIX: If you select X32 FIX, for example, the sensitivity is raised to just X32. The factory default setting is OFF.

Move the cursor to SENS UP and select the parameter for electronic sensitivity enhancement.
