Pelco CCC1380H-6X Eclipser Level Controls, Power Input Terminal, ESC Electronic Shutter Control

￿Eclipser Level Controls

The eclipser function is set at the factory and usually does not need to be readjusted. However, if adjustment is necessary, refer to the section on Eclipser Adjustment in this manual.

THRE

Sets the level for the brightest part of the picture. Anything brighter than this adjustment will be eclipsed.

ECLP

Sets the brightness of the eclipsed area.

GRAY

Sets the brightness of the eclipsed area as viewed on a monitor.

￿Power Input Terminal

Three-pin terminal strip, push-in type; 24 VAC/12 VDC for NTSC/PAL/EIA models. Refer to the section on Connections in this manual for instructions for how to connect to a power supply.

￿￿DIP Switch Settings

AGC – Automatic Gain Control

Automatically adjusts the image to compensate for changes in light levels when using fixed or manual iris lenses. Following are the AGC switch settings:

OFF Ð Disables the AGC mode.

ON (Default setting) Ð Enables the AGC mode.

ESC – Electronic Shutter Control

The ESC feature compensates for an excessive light level by automatically adjusting shutter speed. The ESC range is 1:300. Following are the ESC switch settings:

OFF Ð Disables the Electronic Shutter Control mode.

ON (Default setting) Ð Enables the Electronic Shutter Control mode.

NOTE: Set the FL switch to the off position, otherwise ESC will not function.

BLC – Backlight Compensation

The backlight compensation feature compensates for backlit scenes by enhancing objects in the center of the scene that would previously have been in silhouette. BLC will only function with a manual iris lens when the ESC feature is switched on. For direct drive and auto iris lenses, BLC will still function even though the ESC feature is switched off.

Following are the BLC switch settings:

OFF (Default setting) Ð Disables the BLC mode. ON Ð Enables the BLC mode.

ECLP – Eclipser Function

The eclipser function is used with an auto iris lens. When using a CCD imager with an auto iris lens in an area with minimal lighting contrasts, the auto iris lens closes, resulting in poor picture quality. The eclipser function distorts the signal to the auto iris lens, causing the lens to open wider and create sufficient lighting contrasts to prevent the silhouetting of figures. When the auto iris lens used is equipped with a response selector (AVERAGE/PEAK), always set the selector to AVERAGE.

Following are the ECLP switch settings:

OFF (Default setting) Ð Disables the ECLP mode. ON Ð Enables the ECLP mode.
