Default : 67
○DC iris lens adjustment procedures
When mounting the DC iris lens, adjust the lens apperture according to the following procedures.
The procedures for adjusting the DC iris lens is as follows.
(1) Mount the DC iris lens to the 1200CS
(2) Set the OSD settings as follows;
· Set 『3.3 Lens setting (LENS)』 settings to DC
· Set 『3.4 Shutter / gain setting (SHUTTER / AGC)』settings to AUTO.
· Set 『3.4.1.1 Shutter speed (SHUT)』 settings to DC IRIS.
(3) When hunting occurs in which the screen continually brightens or darkens in the actual
imaging environment, proceed to step(4). When you get the image properly, please proceed to step(5).
OK (4) When hunting occurs, the control speed of the lens aperture might be too fast, reduce
the set value of 『3.3.1.2 auto iris lens aperture control speed (SPEED)』 until the hunting stops.
(5) Adjust the lens aperture. Adjust the lens aperture with 『3.4.1.2 Brightness Setting (AE LEVEL)』.
Adjust 『3.4.1.2 Brightness Setting (AE LEVEL)』 to optimumize brightness while checking the monitor.
(6) The adjustment is completed. Save the setting.
The smaller the set value, the slower the control speed, and the larger the set value, the faster the control
(1)Mount the DC iris lens
(4) Lens aperture control
speed setting
*When the set value is too large, the control speed will be faster, but it will cause hunting and overshoot.
And please note that when the set value is too small, the operation will be delayed and it may stop.

3.4 Shutter/Gain Settings(SHUTTER/AGC)
Set the exposure control. There are two modes of exposure control: the automatic exposure control (AUTO) and the manual exposure control (MANUAL).
When AUTO is selected, shutter speed and gain are automatically controlled according to the imaging environment. When MANUAL is selected, shutter
speed and gain can be set to arbitrary fixed values. Move the cursor to SHUTTER/AGC with UP/DOWN and use the LEFT/RIGHT to select AUTO or
MANUAL. After selecting the mode, press ENTER to open each advanced setting sub menu.
3.4.1 Automatic exposure control(AUTO)
3.4.1.1 Shutter Speed(SHUTTER)
Set the shutter speed (SHUTTER). Use the LEFT/RIGHT to select the shutter mode.
* In this function, selectable MODE deffers by combining with LENS setting of『3.3 DC iris lens control setting (LENS)』. When the LENS
setting is MANUAL, the selectable MODE is only SHUT. When the LENS setting is DC, select from either SHUT + DC IRIS or DC IRIS.
DC iris lens. *Electric iris does not operate in this mode.
Automatic exposure control by electric iris. Depending on the brightness of the shooting
object, exposure will be controlled within the range of 1/60s(1/50s) to 1/100000s
for getting the appropriate brightness. *(1/50s) : Defalt in PAL
electric iris preferentially and when it is still too bright, it will controlled by DC iris lens.
Automatic exposure control by combining electric iris and DC iris. This mode uses
Automatic exposure control by DC iris. The exposure is only controlled with aperture of

3.4.1.2 Brightness settings, high luminance side(AE LEVEL)
Set the brightness in the screen (AE LEVEL). Use the LEFT / RIGHT to adjust the brightness.
*Default: Vary depending on the fine adjustment at factory
3.4.1.3 Auto Gain Control(AGC)
Set the auto gain control setting (AGC). Gain controls exposure at low luminance when electric shutter and DC Iris lens could not acheieve
the full exposure. Use the LEFT / RIGHT to select AGC ON or OFF.
*When the auto iris lens is mounted, we will use the AE LEVEL to adjustment the lens aperture.
Brightness can be set within the range of 0 (dark) -255 (bright).
For the details, see the auto iris lens adjustment procedures in 『3.3.2 Auto iris lens aperture control
Automatic exposure control with gain at low luminance. *Gain range is 0 to 54 dB.
