Files Menu Features

A user of the LDK 200 camera can have access to 15 different files. This number can be extended by using additional scene file smart cards. The Files menu is used to recall and store these files. There are two types of file:

*scene files

*operator files.

A scene file contains values related to the picture performance. The operator file contains values related to the set-up of the camera (viewfinder, lens and installation parameters).

The appendix indicates the functions that are stored in the scene file and those functions that are stored in an operator file.

Scene files

Four scene files are stored in the camera itself (SCAM1,SCAM2, SCAM3 and SCAM4). Another four scene files can be stored on the smart card (SCARD1, SCARD2, SCARD3 and SCARD4).

A STANDARD scene file (preselected as either factory or customer defined) is stored in the camera.

Note:

The standard customer scene file is stored via the Security menu, not the Files menu. The decision to use the factory defined file or the customer defined file as the standard file is also made in this menu.

The Files menu enables the scene files to be stored and recalled using the store and recall entries of the menu system.

If the message NOK is displayed then the old values are restored. If the camera is on-air when a scene file is recalled then the recalled values do not become active until the camera goes off air.

Operator files

The Files menu also allows the recall of the opererator file stored in the camera (OCAM1) or one of the two operator files (OCARD1 and OCARD2) stored on the smart card. These files contain information for setting up the non-video configuration of the camera.

A STANDARD operator files (factory or customer defined) is stored in the camera.

The standard customer operator file is stored via

the Security menu, not the Files menu. The decision to use the factory defined file or the customer defined file as the standard file is also made in this menu.
