Setting the white balance

Adjust the ratio between R, G, and B (the three primary colors) so that white will be reproduced accurately.

When the white balance is off, not only will white be reproduced poorly but the color tone of the entire picture will also deteriorate.

The white balance needs to be set when the lighting conditions and brightness have changed. The white balance must also be adjusted when using a remote camera for the first time or when a remote camera has not been used for a prolonged period of time.

The white balance can be adjusted automatically or manually (fine adjustment after automatic adjustment), and results can be stored in two memory areas (A and B) of the remote camera. The result in a memory area can be recalled by pressing the WHITE BAL A button or WHITE BAL B button on the unit.

In addition, you can select the auto tracking white balance (ATW) mode for automatically tracking the white balance in accordance with the lighting conditions.

Automatically adjusting the white balance

1.With the selected remote camera, fill the screen with a white subject (white wall or paper)..

zzMake sure a shining object or very bright object does not appear on the screen.

2.Press the WHITE BAL A button to turn on its indicator..

3.Press the AWB button..

The AWB button indicator blinks and the white balance is adjusted automatically.

When adjustment ends successfully, the button indicator turns off and the adjustment results are registered to memory A.

When adjustment was not possible, the AWB button indicator blinks continuously.

Try changing, for example, the lens iris, subject, and lighting conditions, and then perform adjustment again.

4.Press the WHITE BAL B button to turn on its indicator..

5.Press the AWB button..

Similar to step 3, the adjustment results are saved to memory B. zzWhen the white balance is adjusted automatically, the R and

B GAIN setting values become “±0”.
