3. Subjects
1) Color bar chart (Color reproduction adjustment frame)
When performing adjustments using the color bar chart, adjust the picture frame as shown in Fig. 6-1-3. (Color reproduction adjustment frame)
2) Clear chart (AWB adjustment frame)
Shoot the color bar chart. Then adjust the zoom to TELE side
from WIDE side, and stop it when the black frame of the chart
disappears. Remove the color bar chart from pattern box and
insert a clear chart in its place.
3) Chart for flange back adjustment
Join together a piece of white A0 size paper (1189 mm × 841
mm) and a piece of black paper to make the chart shown in
Fig. 6-1-4.
Note: Use a non-reflecting and non-glazing vellum paper. The
size must be A0 or larger and the joint between the white
and black paper must not have any undulations.

4. Setting Distance between Pattern Box and Camera
Set the distance from the front of the lens to the pattern box as
shown in Fig. 6-1-5.
L = 1 m (PTB-450)
L = 40 cm (PTB-1450)
Pattern box
Front of the lens

Camera
Fig. 6-1-5
5. Precautions When Using Pattern Box
1) It takes about 30 minutes for pattern box to stabilize its brightness.
Turn on the pattern box 30 minutes before the adjustment starts.
2) Make arrangement so that the outside light does not enter the chart surface in the pattern box.
Also, place a board between chart and camera, and make a hole at the lens part of the board so that the camera is not reflected in the
shot image screen.
(Adjustment may not be performed correctly due to the influence of outside light.)
Example 1: Place a box to block a section between pattern box and camera.
Make the hole of the same
size as the pattern box.

L = 1 m (PTB-450)
L = 40 cm (PTB-1450)

3) Control of color chart
The color chart will fade if it is exposed to direct sunlight or strong light.
Since the fading of color chart progresses even with the light in the pattern box, remove and store the color chart when it is not used.
Remove the color chart and store it.
Store the color chart in a place not exposed to direct light, avoiding high temperature and humidity.
Use the color chart for about three years, and afterward replace it with a new chart.

1-2.ADJUSTMENT PROGRAM
The HDR-SR11/SR11E/SR12/SR12E are adjusted by the Automatic Adjustment Program. The Automatic Adjustment Program
enters automatically via the SeusEX the adjustment operations that
were formerly entered manually by the adjustment remote commander (some items may be adjusted by manual operation on the
operation screen of the SeusEX).
1. Precautions When Using Automatic Adjustment
Program
1) The Automatic Adjustment Program writes the adjustment re-
sults such as EVR data to the set through two-way communication with the camcorder via the SeusEX. Accordingly, the
Automatic Adjustment Program must be used in the environment where the SeusEX operates.
2) The Automatic Adjustment Program cannot be used when the
SEUS or the SeusCam is running. Exit the SEUS or the
SeusCam before using the Automatic Adjustment Program.
3) The SeusEX must be already started on the PC when using the
Automatic Adjustment Program. With the SeusEX not started,
some adjustment items will take time in adjustment.
4) The program run time may vary depending on the environ-
ment of the personal computer used.
2. Start of Automatic Adjustment Program
Double-click the application file (HDR-SR11 Series Auto-Adj
Ver_1.2r03.exe), and the Automatic Adjustment Program will start.
3. Function of Each Button on Main Menu Screen
When the Automatic Adjustment Program started, the Main Menu
screen in Fig. 6-1-9 will appear. On this screen, select each adjustment section.

[Preparation (Using the minipattern box)]
1) The minipattern box is installed as shown in the following figure.
Note: The attachment lenses are not used.
2) Install the minipattern box so that the distance between it and
the front of lens of camera is less than 3 cm.
3) Make the height of minipattern box and the camera equal.
4) Check the output voltage of the regulated power supply is the
specified voltage ± 0.01 Vdc.
5) Check that the center of Siemens star chart meets the center of
shot image screen with the zoom lens at TELE end and WIDE
end respectively.
Specified voltage: The specified voltage varies according to the
minipattern box, so adjustment the power supply output voltage to the specified voltage written on the sheet which is supplied with the
minipattern box.
[Preparation (Using the flange back adjustment jig)]
(Illuminance: approx. 800 lux)
Note: When using the flange back adjustment jig, take care of the
following points:
• For the illumination, use a light source such as an incandescent lamp or inverter type fluorescent light free from
flickering.
• Do not make an adjustment in the environment where fluorescent lamp flickering occurs even if the illuminance can
be ensured with the room illumination only. Use an incandescent lamp or inverter type fluorescent light at a place
free from the influence of room illumination.
1) Install the flange back adjustment jig so that the distance between it and the front of lens of camera is less than 3 cm.
2) Make the height of flange back adjustment jig and the camera
equal.
3) Check that the center of chart meets the center of shot image
screen with the zoom lens at TELE end and WIDE end respectively.

Perform this adjustment only when replacing the GYRO sensor or
lens block. When the microprocessor, circuit etc. is damaged, don't
perform this adjustment but check the operations only.
11-1. Preparation when the GYRO sensor or the FR-
278 board is replaced
Note down the sensitivity displayed on the GYRO sensor of the repair parts. At this time, note down also to which board it was attached
to.
Be sure to check because if attached incorrectly, the screen will vibrate up and down or left and right during the steady shot operations.
Precautions on the Parts Replacement
The PITCH sensor and the YAW sensor are different parts.
Precautions on GYRO Sensor
The sensor incorporates a precision oscillator. Handle it with care as
if it dropped, the balance of oscillator will be disrupted and operations will not be performed properly.
