Wide Dynamic Range Mode (WD) (EVI-D90N/P
only)
The Wide Dynamic Range mode is a function for
dividing an image into several blocks and correcting
blocked-up shadows and blown-out highlights in
accordance with the intensity difference. It enables you
to obtain images in which portions ranging from dark
to light can be recognized, even when capturing a
subject with a large intensity difference that is backlit
or includes extremely light portions.
A CCD for shooting a wide dynamic range is
employed, and a newly developed image signal
processor combines a long exposure signal (normal
shutter) and a signal of the high intensity portions
obtained by a short exposure (high-speed shutter) to
achieve images with a wide dynamic range.
Wide Dynamic Range Auto On/Off Mode
The wide dynamic range can be set to be automatically
switched ON/OFF in accordance with the intensity
difference obtained by dividing an image into several
blocks and then averaging the intensity of each block.
High Resolution Mode
A newly developed ISP function enables the filtering
of signals. This allows the camera to provide images
with a high resolution.
Aperture Control
Aperture control is a function which adjusts the
enhancement of the edges of objects in the picture.
There are 16 levels of adjustment, starting from “no
enhancement.” When shooting text, this control may
help by making the text sharper.
Back Light Compensation
When the background of the subject is too bright, or
when the subject is too dark due to shooting in the AE
mode, back light compensation will make the subject
appear clearer.
Wide Dynamic Range Auto On/Off Mode
Auto On/Off
When the intensity
difference between the
dark portions and light
portions of a subject
becomes large because
of back lighting or the
like, the wide dynamic
range mode is switched
ON.
When the subject
changes and the
intensity difference
between the dark
portions and light
portions becomes
small, the wide dynamic
range mode is switched
OFF.

Specify the short exposure time by setting
the magnification ratio (×1 to ×150) with

Noise Reduction
The NR (Noise Reduction) function removes noise
(both random and non-random) to provide clearer
images. By combining 2D filtering according to
brightness and image color, and 3D filtering according
to noise caused by motion and time difference, lower
noise images can be obtained for the corresponding
image brightness of a moving subject.
This function has six steps: levels 1 to 5, plus off.
Level 1 applies to subject motion mainly using 2D
filter effects. With level 5, 2D and 3D filter effects are
maximized, providing the lowest-noise images,
although moving subjects may show trails.
At each level, two filters are set according to noise and
image motion characteristics, so the available level
selections depend on the situation. The default setting
is level 3.
Image Stabilizer (EVI-D90N/P only)
Switching ON the Image Stabilizer function reduces
image blurring caused by, for example, vibration,
which allows you to obtain images without much
blurring. A correction effect of approximately 90% is
possible for a vibration frequency of around 10 Hz.
The Image Stabilizer function employs the digital
zoom system, so the angle of view and resolution are
changed, but the sensitivity is maintained.
Hold Function of Image Stabilizer
With the Image Stabilizer function, suddenly stopping
high-speed movement (pan, tilt, etc.) of the camera
produces a blur sensor counteraction that may cause
image movement. In such a case, you can use a
command setting (hold) to maintain the correction of
the Image Stabilizer function. In this case the image
stabilizer is off, but there is no change in the angle of
view.
Note
When the wide dynamic range mode is ON, solarization may be observed in the images of some subjects.
This phenomenon is unique to wide dynamic range
mode, and is not an indication of a camera
malfunction.

Checking the Location of the Camera for
Signals from the IR Remote Commander
The supplied Remote Commander may not work
correctly near inverter lighting fixtures. Good IR
detection can be verified to determine proper camera
location.
While the camera is being initialized after the power is
turned on by connecting the camera to an AC outlet
using the AC power adaptor and AC power cord, or by
using a VISCA command, the camera detects whether
or not the camera is able to receive infrared signals
from the Remote Commander. You can check the result
of this operation via the IR_ConditionInq command
(see page 33).
When the installation location does not allow stable
reception, try to install the camera farther away from
the inverter lighting fixtures.

VISCA1) RS-232C
Commands
Use of RS-232C control software which has been
developed based upon this command list may cause
malfunction or damage to hardware and software. Sony
Corporation is not liable for any such damage.
Overview of VISCA
In VISCA, the device producing the commands, for
example, a computer, is called the controller, while the
device receiving the commands, such as an
EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P, is c
device. The EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P serves as a
peripheral device in VISCA. In VISCA, up to seven
peripheral devices like the EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/
D90P can be connected to one controller using
communication conforming to the RS-232C standard.
The parameters of RS-232C are as follows.

Fig. 1 VISCA network configuration
Peripheral devices are connected in a daisy chain. As
shown in Fig. 1, the actual internal connection is a onedirection ring, so that messages return to the controller
via the peripheral devices. The devices on the network
are assigned addresses.
The address of the controller is fixed at 0. The
addresses of the peripheral devices are 1, 2, 3 ... in
order, starting from the one nearest the controller. The
address of the peripheral device is set by sending
address commands during the initialization of the
network.

VISCA Communication
Specifications
VISCA packet structure
The basic unit of VISCA communication is called a
packet (Fig. 2). The first byte of the packet is called the
header and comprises the sender’s and receiver’s
addresses. For example, the header of the packet sent to
the EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P assigned address 1
from the controller (address 0) is hexadecimal 81H.
packet.
Packet (3 to 16 bytes)
Message (1 to 14 bytes)Header
Byte 1Byte 2Byte 3
The packet sent to the EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P
assigned address 2 is 82H. In the command list, as the
header is 8X, input the address of the EVI-D80N/
D80P/D90N/D90P at X. The header of the reply packet
from the EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P assigned
address 1 is 90H. The packet from the EVI-D80N/
D80P/D90N/D90P assigned address 2 is A0H.
Some of the commands for setting EVI-D80N/D80P/
D90N/D90P units can be sent to all devices at one time
(broadcast). In the case of broadcast, the header should
be hexadecimal 88H.
When the terminator is FFH, it signifies the end of the

Timing Chart
As VISCA Command processing can only be carried
out one time in a Vertical cycle, it takes the maximum
1V cycle time for an ACK/Completion to be returned.
If the Command ACK/Completion communication
time can be cut shorter than the 1V cycle time, then
every 1V cycle can receive a Command.

When a command or inquiry command could not

instead of the completion message.
by the EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P
Socket number
When command messages are sent to the
EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P, it is normal to send the
next command message after waiting for the
completion message or error message to return.
However to deal with advanced uses, the EVI-D80N/
D80P/D90N/D90P has two buffers (memories) for
commands, so that up to two commands including the
commands currently being executed can be received.
When the
EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P receives
commands, it
notifies the sender which command buffer was used
using the socket number of the ACK message.
As the completion message or error message also has a
socket number, it indicates which command has ended.
Even when two command buffers are being used at any
one time, an EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P
management command and some inquiry messages
can be executed.
The ACK message is not returned for these commands
and inquiries, and only the completion message of
socket number 0 is returned.
The following command use two sockets during
execution of each command that is sent. The
EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P cannot
receive other
requests during execution of these commands. In
addition, these commands cannot be executed during
operation of other commands.

D70 Mode
Aegis Electronic Group
www.aegiselect.com
For More Information Please Call Aegis Electronic Group, Inc. * (888) 687-6877 Phone * [email protected]* http://www.aegis-elec.com
Overview
The D70 mode allows you to control the EVI-D80N/
D80P/D90N/D90P using VISCA commands for the
EVI-D70/P. Most of the VISCA commands for the
EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P correspond to one for
the EVI-D70/P. However, some of the VISCA
commands for the EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P are
different from those for the EVI-D70/P in definitions
of parameters.
When you send those commands to an EVI-D80N/
D80P/D90N/D90P whose D70 mode is set to ON, the
camera translates the parameters for the EVI-D70/P to
those for the EVI-D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P and
executes the command. The following parameters are
subject to translation.

Notes
Even if you set the D70 mode to ON, the EVI-
D80N/D80P/D90N/D90P may not emulate the
EVI-D70/P perfectly. This is caused by differences
in hardware between the two models.

Switching the Mode
You can switch the D70 mode ON or OFF by switching
the BOTTOM switch at the bottom of the EVI-D80N/
D80P/D90N/D90P. To change the D70 mode setting,
move the BOTTOM switch to ON or OFF while the
camera’s power is off or the camera is in standby mode.
Then, turn the power on by connecting the camera to
an AC outlet or by using the VISCA commands or the
Remote Commander.
It takes about 7-16 seconds for the image to be
displayed after Pan/Tilt initialization motion has
stopped.

Pan/tilt speed
The actual speed that is defined by the parameters
corresponds to that of the D70.
When the camera receives commands such as
PantiltDrive Home, Reset, or CAM_Memory Recall,
that do not include speed indications, these operations
are carried out at the same speed as they would be
when the D70 mode is set to OFF.

Example
When you execute the Relative position command
100 times, one step after another to turn the camera to
the right side:

mode is ON
the right side by 7.5 degrees.
Turns to the right side by 6.6 degrees.
For Absolute Position commands, the permissible
range for drive settings are the same as those for the
EVI-D70/P.
Pan direct
ion: –170 degrees to + 170 degrees.
Tilt direction: –20 degrees to + 90 degrees.
Translation when answering inquiry commands
The camera sends back values that are calculated by
inverse conversion performed when the camera accepts
commands.
Note
Repetitive use of the Absolute position command may
increase the variance that is accumulated from
translation.
