Overview

Precautions

Software
Use of the demonstration software developed by Sony Corporation or use of the software with customer developed application software may damage hardware, the application program or the camera. Sony Corporation is not liable for any damages under these conditions.
Operation
Start the camera control software on your computer after you turn on the camera and the image is displayed.
Operation and Storage Locations
Do not shoot images that are extremely bright (e.g., light sources, the sun, etc.) for long periods of time. Do not use or store the camera in the following extreme conditions:
• Extremely hot or cold places (operating temperature 0 ˚C to +40 ˚C (32 ˚F to 104 ˚F))
•Close to generators of powerful electromagnetic radiation such as radio or TV transmitters
•Where it is subject to fluorescent light reflections
•Where it is subject to unstable (flickering, etc.) lighting conditions
•Where it is subject to strong vibration
Care of the Unit
In case of abnormal operation, contact your authorized Sony dealer or the store where you purchased the product.
Phenomena specific to CCD image sensors
The following phenomena that may appear in images are specific to CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image sensors. They do not indicate malfunctions.
White flecks
Although the CCD image sensors are produced with high-precision technologies, fine white flecks may be generated on the screen in rare cases, caused by cosmic rays, etc. This is related to the principle of CCD image sensors and is not a malfunction.
The white flecks especially tend to be seen in the following cases:
•when operating at a high environmental temperature
•when you have raised the master gain (sensitivity)
•when operating in Slow-Shutter mode
Vertical smear
When an extremely bright object, such as a strong spotlight or flashlight, is being shot, vertical tails may be produced on the screen, or the image may be distorted.
Monitor screen
Vertical tails shown on the image.
Remove dust or dirt on the surface of the lens with a blower (commercially available).
Other
Do not apply excessive voltage. (Use only the specified voltage.) Otherwise, you may get an electric shock or a fire may occur.
Bright object (e.g. strong spotlight, strong reflected light, flashlight, the sun)

Overview of Functions

VISCA commands are the basis of camera control.
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 the1V cycle time, then every 1V cycle can receive a Command.
General Commands

Query Commands
Within
Commands
• Power On/Off
Powers the camera on and off. When the power is off, the camera is able to accept only the lowest level of VISCA Commands; the display and other features are turned off.
• I/F clear
Clears the Command buffer of the FCB camera. Clearing the buffer can also be carried out from the control application software when the power is on.
• Address set
VISCA is a protocol, which normally can support a daisy chain of up to seven attached devices. However, the FCB camera does not support camera connections in a daisy chain. Therefore, whenever a camera is connected for the first time, be sure to use the address set to confirm the address.
• ID Write
Sets the camera ID.
• Mute
Blanks the screen and sends out a synchronizing signal.
• Lens Initialization
Initializes the zoom and focus of the lens. Even when power is already on, it initializes the zoom and the focus.

Basic Functions
Zoom
The FCB camera employs an 10× optical zoom lens.
Lens specifications: Optical 10×, f = 4.2 to 42 mm
(F1.8 to F2.9)
The horizontal angle of view is approximately 46 degrees (wide end) to 4.6 degrees (tele end).
You can activate the zoom in the following two ways:
•By pressing the TELE or WIDE buttons on the camera itself.
•Using a VISCA Command
Using Standard Mode Using Variable Mode
There are eight levels of zoom speed.
Direct Mode
Setting the zoom position enables quick movement to the designated position.
In these standard and variable Speed Modes, it is necessary to send a “Stop Command” to stop the zoom operation.
AF sensitivity can be set to either Normal or LOW.
- Normal
Reaches the highest focus speed quickly. Use this when shooting a subject that moves frequently. Usually, this is the most appropriate mode.
- LOW
Improves the stability of the focus. When the lighting level is low, the AF function does not take effect, even though the brightness varies, contributing to a stable image.
• Manual Focus Mode
Manual Focus has both a Standard Speed Mode and a Variable Speed Mode. Standard Speed Mode focuses at a fixed rate of speed. Variable Speed Mode has eight speed levels that can be set using a VISCA Command.
In these standard and variable Speed Modes, it is necessary to send a “Stop Command” to stop the zoom operation.
• One Push Trigger Mode
When a Trigger Command is received, the lens moves to adjust the focus for the subject. The focus lens then holds the same position until the next Trigger Command is input.
Focus
Focus has the following modes, all of which can be set using VISCA Commands.
• Auto Focus Mode
The minimum focus distance is 10 mm at the optical wide end and 1000 mm at the optical tele end (distance from the front end of the lens), and is independent of the digital zoom. The AutoFocus (AF) function automatically adjusts the focus position to maximize the high frequency content of the picture in a center measurement area, taking into consideration the high luminance and strong contrast components.
- Normal AF Mode
This is the normal mode for AF operations.
- Interval AF Mode
The mode used for AF movements carried out at defined intervals. The time intervals for AF movements and for the timing of the stops can be set in one-second increments using the Set Time Command. The initial value for both is set to five seconds.
- Zoom Trigger Mode
When the zoom is changed with the TELE or the WIDE buttons, the pre-set value (initially set at 5 seconds) becomes that for AF Mode. Then, it returns to Manual Focus mode.
• Infinity Mode
The lens is forcibly moved to a position suitable for an unlimited distance.
• Near Limit Mode
Can be set in a range from 1000 () to C000 (10 mm). The focus range is narrowed by excluding the unnecessary range.

Basic Functions
White Balance
White Balance has the following modes, all of which can be set using VISCA Commands.
• Auto White Balance
Auto white balance obtains the proper color reproduction by automatically adjusting white balance to ensure a white object always looks white. This function computes the white balance value output using color information from the entire screen. It outputs the proper value using a pre-set value for a color temperature radiating from a black subject based on a rage of values from 2000 to 10000K. This mode is the default setting.
Note
When the light source suddenly changes from the light source available when the FCB camera was turned on, the proper color reproduction may not be obtained because the system cannot compensate the sudden change of color temperature.
• ATW
Auto Tracing White balance (2000 to 10000 K)
• Indoor
3200 K Base Mode
• Outdoor
5800 K Base Mode
• One Push WB
The One Push White Balance mode is a fixed white balance mode that may be automatically readjusted only at the request of the user (One Push Trigger), assuming that a white subject, in correct lighting conditions and occupying more than
1
/2 of the image, is submitted to the camera. One Push White Balance data is lost when the power is turned off. If the power is turned off, reset the One Push White Balance.
• Manual WB
Manual control of R and B gain, 256 steps each
Automatic Exposure Mode

rate from the memory. The memory is updated at a low rate from the CCD. AF capability is low. In high speed mode, the shutter speed can be set up to
1
/10,000 s. The iris and gain are set automatically,
according to the brightness of the subject.

AE – Manual
The shutter speed (22 steps), iris (18 steps) and gain (16 steps) can be set freely by the user.
AE – Bright
The bright control function adjusts both the gain and iris using an internal algorithm according to a brightness level freely set by the user. Exposure is controlled by gain when dark and by iris when bright. As both gain and iris are fixed, this mode is used when exposing at a fixed camera sensitivity. When switching from Full Auto or Shutter Priority Mode to Bright Mode, the current status will be retained for a short period of time. Only when the AE mode is set to “Full Auto” or “Shutter Priority,” the user can switch it to “Bright.”

When switching from the Shutter Priority mode to the Bright mode, the shutter speed set in the Shutter Priority mode is maintained.
Spot Exposure Mode
In Full Auto AE, the level for the entire screen is computed and the optimum Auto Iris and Gain levels are determined. In Spot AE, a particular section of the subject can be designated, and then that portion of the image can be weighted and a value computed so that Iris and Gain can be optimized to obtain an image. For example, in an image with a lot of movement and with varying levels of brightness, portions without much change can be designated as such a “spot,” and changes to the screen can be minimized in that area. As shown in the diagram below, a range of 16 blocks vertically and 16 blocks horizontally can be designated. In the case where the center is designated (shown in black), the level is computed along with a weighted value for the surrounding block (shaded), including the specified portions; and then the Gain and Iris are set. The value of the designated portions and the surrounding areas should be calculated as 100% and the rest should be set to 0%. The range of the Spot AE frame is fixed to five blocks vertically and four blocks horizontally.

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.
Slow Shutter – Auto/Manual
When the Slow Shutter is set to “Auto,” this ensures that the slow shutter is engaged automatically when the brightness drops. This occurs only when the AE mode is set to “Full Auto.” “Slow Shutter Manual” is the factory setting.

Others
E-FLIP
This function turns the video output from the camera upside down.
Mirror Image
This function reverses the video output from the camera horizontally.
Freeze
This function captures an image in the field memory of the camera so that this image can be output continuously.
Because communication inside the camera is based on V cycle, the captured image is always the one 3V to 4Vs after the sending of a Command. Thus, you can not specify a time period after sending a Command.
User Memory Area
A user area of 16 bytes allows you to write data, such as an ID for each customer, data for each system, and so on, freely.
Note
Rewriting of memory is not unlimited. Be careful to avoid using the memory area for such as unnecessary tasks as rewriting the contents of the memory for every operation.

Set Mask
Command: 8x 01 04 76 mm nn 0r 0r 0s 0s FF Parameters:
mm Setting Mask
See “mm: mask setting list” in “Parameters” on page 15.
nn Selects new setting or resetting for the zone. See nn:
Setting” in “Parameters” on page 15. rr Sets the half value “w” of the Mask Width. ss Sets the half value “h” of the Mask Height.
See “rr: w, ss: h” in “Parameters” on page 15.
Comments: To set the mask, first display the object
at the center of the screen. When “nn” is set to 1, the current Pan/Tilt/Zoom position is recorded in internal memory. When “nn” is set to 0, the Pan/Tilt/Zoom position in memory is not changed.
Notes
• The tilt angle at which you can set the mask is between –70 to +70 degrees.
• It is recommended that you set the size to at least twice the size of the object (height and width).
Set Display
Command: 8x 01 04 77 pp pp pp pp FF Parameter:
pp pp pp pp Each 24 Privacy Zones corresponds to 1 bit.
See “pp pp pp pp: Mask bit” in “Parameters” on page 15.
Comments: Each of 24 Privacy zones can be
switched on and off individually by a single VISCA command. If you want to display a Privacy zone, you must set its bit to 1. If you do not want to display a Privacy zone, you must set its bit to 0.
Set Mask Color
Command: 8x 01 04 78 pp pp pp pp qq rr FF Parameter:
pp pp pp pp Each 24 Privacy Zones correspond with the BIT.
See “pp pp pp pp: Mask bit” in “Parameters” on page 15.
qq Set the color code include the semi-transparency
code.
rr Set the color code include the semi-transparency
code. See “qq, rr: Color code” in “Parameters” on page 15.
Comments: Two different color masks can be
chosen. The colors can be chosen from among 14 colors including the possibility for semi-transparency of each color. Therefore two colors from among the total of 28 colors can be individually set for each of 24 privacy zones. If the bit of parameter (pp pp pp pp) is set to “0”, mask color will be “qq” color (Color code). If the bit of parameter (pp pp pp pp) is set to “1”, the mask color will be “rr” color (Color code).
Example: 8x 01 04 78 00 00 00 03 10 07 FF
The mask color of Mask_A and Mask_B is White (color code 07h), and the mask color of the other Mask (C to X) is semi-transparent Black (color code 10h).
Set Pan Tilt Angle
Command: 8x 01 04 79 0p 0p 0p 0q 0q 0q FF Parameter:
ppp Pan Angle qqq Tilt Angle
See “Setting pan/tilt angle” in “Parameters” on page
15.
Comments: Pan/Tilt angle settings are hexadecimal
data. The resolution of Pan/Tilt angle is 0.088 degrees.
Note
When you set the pan/tilt angle, locate the pan/tilt position at the center point of the FCB camera’s position.
Non Interlock Mask
Command: 8x 01 04 6F mm 0p 0p 0q 0q 0r 0r 0s 0s
FF
Parameters:
mm Setting Mask
See “mm: mask setting list” in “Parameters” on page 15. pp Sets the center position “x” of the Mask on screen. qq Sets the center position “y” of the Mask on screen. rr Sets the half value “w” of the Mask Width. ss Sets the half value “h” of the Mask Height.
See “pp: x, qq: y, rr: w, ss: h” in “Parameters” on page 15.
Commands: Mask does not interlock with pan/tilt.
The limitations of parameters are as follows. (hexadecimal representation) x: ±50h w: ±50h y: ±3ch h: ±3ch
Note
When the Set Mask command and the Non Interlock Mask command are set to the same mask, the command set later becomes effective.

Alarm Function
This function instructs the camera to detect movement within the monitoring area and then send an alarm signal automatically. A High level signal is output when camera detects movement inside the monitoring area. A Low level signal is output when object stops moving. However, when the mode is set to “DAY/NIGHT”, the High level signal is output for dark and the Low level signal is output for bright. The Detect signal goes out through the serial command (VISCA) communication line.
Example
1. A door is motionless, so the Detect Level is Low.
2. At the moment when the door is opened by someone, the Detect Level goes to High.
3. The Detect Level is High while the shooting object is moving.
4. When the door is closed, Detect Level goes to Low again, or signals are output only once at the time of switching between High Level and Low Level.

00 Set the internal focus position. When focus movement is detected, the detect signal is High. When focus goes
back to the previous position, the detect signal is Low.
01 Set a fixed period of time. When focus does not move during the time, the focus position is memorized as a
rest position and the detect signal is Low. When focus moves, the detect signal is High. Afterwards when focus does not move for the fixed period of time, the focus position is memorized and the detect signal becomes Low.
02 Set the internal AE Level. When AE movement is detected, the detect signal is High. When AE Level goes
back to the previous level, the detect signal is Low.
03 Set a fixed period of time. When AE Level does not change during this time, the AE value is memorized as a
rest value and the detect signal is Low. When AE value changes, the detect signal is High. Afterwards when AE value does not change for the fixed period of time, the AE value is memorized and the
detect signal becomes Low. 04 mode “00” and mode “02” 05 mode “00” and mode “03” 06 mode “01” and mode “02” 07 mode “01” and mode “03” 08 mode “00” or mode “02” 09 mode “00” or mode “03” 0A mode “01” or mode “02” 0B mode “01” or mode “03” 0C Day-Night Mode
