according to the signal input from the AUX
terminal. ( Page 41)

MEMO

•If AUTO is selected as the B&W item, the B&W/COLOUR setting can be switched as appropriate according to the brightness of the object, but illumination and screen conditions may make this impossible. Moreover, when you use infrared illumination, if the subject excessively reflects, a B/W screen can switch to a color screen. To make absolutely certain of B&W/COLOUR switching, set to AUX and input the control signal to the AUX terminal.

•If AUX is selected as the B&W item, the AUX TERMINAL item is automatically set to B&W IN. If this changes to anything other than AUX, the AUX TERMINAL item reverts to the value set before the change was made. ( Page 33.)

When the “B&W” function is set to “AUTO”, this function
sets the signal level of the object at which the camera will
automatically switch to B&W mode.
LOW		: Switches to B&W mode when the signal level of
		the object indicates low illumination.
NORMAL: Switches to B&W mode when the signal level of
HIGH		the object indicates medium illumination.
		: Switches to B&W mode when the signal level of
		the object indicates high illumination.

	MEMO
When the item “B&W” is set to other than AUTO, “- - -” is
displayed and the settings to the item “LEVEL” cannot be
