NOTE

●When the FULL AUTO (Full Auto Shooting) is ON, the shutter speed becomes EEI. However, the shutter speed is OFF in the LoLux mode.

When FAS is ON, the SHUTTER control cannot be used to vary the shutter speed.

●When ALC+EEI is ON, the shutter speed becomes EEI. At this time, the SHUTTER control cannot be used to vary the shutter speed.

STEP : This mode allows the shutter speed to be set to one of the following fixed values.

(Variation steps: 1/100, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000, 1/2000)

VARIABLE: Use this mode when shooting an image on a computer monitor, etc.

(Variation range: approx 1/60 to 1/2000)

*The fixed values are variable depending on the camera in use.

NOTE

●The variation range is variable depending on the cam- era in use.

●The shutter speed displayed on the RM-P210 may be slightly different from the actual shutter speed of the camera.

GAIN ADJUSTMENT

When the illumination of the object is insufficient, the electrical gain can be boosted as described

below.

NOTE

●When the FULL AUTO or ALC+EEI is ON, the gain be- comes ALC. However, the GAIN is Lolux in the Lolux mode. The gain cannot be varied in this mode.

●The KY-D29/KY-D29W does not function correctly accord- ing to the GAIN settings because it is not compatible with the 3 dB gain and variable gain functions. Do not set the GAIN adjustment items for this model.

1. The gain is boosted according to the position of the GAIN STEP switch as shown below. (The gain boost values shown below are factory settings.)

LOW : 0 dB (No gain boost)

MID : 9 dB (Gain approximately tripled.)

HIGH: 18 dB (Gain approximately octupled.)

The gain boost values of these switch positions can be modified to the following values.

(Available values: -3 dB, 0 dB, 3 dB, 6 dB, 9 dB, 12 dB, 18 dB)

REF. : Items 5D to 5F, “GAIN LOW, MID and HIGH” on page 25.

NOTE

The variable values vary depending on the connected camera model.

REF. : “Functions available depending on camera models” on page 29.

2. When the GAIN control is pressed, the VARIABLE mode starts and the GAIN lamp lights up.

NOTE

The gain value set in the VARIABLE mode is applied in priority over the gain switch setting.

3. The gain can be fine adjusted between 0.1 dB and 18 dB in

0.1dB steps in the VARIABLE mode. Also, in this mode, the maximum gain value can be set to 9 dB, 12 dB or 18 dB. When the variation step is set to 1.0 dB, the gain can be varied from 1 dB to 18 dB in 1 dB steps.
