5.Supply the video output signal of the camera to be adjusted and the refer- ence gen-lock input signal to a dual- trace oscilloscope.

6.Set the oscilloscope to the horizontal rate and expand the horizontal sync portion on the oscilloscope.

7.Move the cursor to H PHASE.

8.Adjust the horizontal phase by press- ing L or M. The adjustable range is 0-2.0 µs.

6-3. Line-lock Sync Mode (LL)

Note: The line-lock (LL) sync mode is not available when the camera operates on DC power.

1.Move the cursor to SYNC and select LL.

Note: The settings in this menu can be made only when the multiplexed vertical drive signal (VD2) is not supplied to the

camera.

4.Set the oscilloscope to the vertical rate and expand the vertical sync portion on the oscilloscope.

5.Move the cursor to COARSE. The cursor is highlighted.

6.Press L or M to match the vertical phase for both video output signals as closely as possible. (COARSE adjustment can be incremented in 16 steps by 22.5 degrees by pressing L or M.)

Note: After the sixteenth step, the adjustment returns to the first step.

7.Move the cursor to FINE.

8.Press L or M to match the vertical phase for both video output signals as closely as possible.

(FINE adjustment can be made by up to 22.5 degrees by pressing L or M.)

1 (1 - - 16): 0 degrees

2 (1 - - 16): 22.5 degrees

16 (1 - - 16): 337.5 degrees

Notes:

When the “I” cursor reaches the “+” end, it jumps back to “–”. At the same time, COARSE is incremented by one step to enable a continuous adjustment. The reverse takes place when the “I” cursor reaches the “–” end.

When L or M is kept pressed for a second or more, the “I” cursor moves faster.

To reset COARSE and FINE to the values preset at the factory, press L and M simultaneously. COARSE and FINE adjustments are preset at the factory to zero- crossing of the AC line phase.

If the AC line contains noise (spike noise, etc.), the stability of the vertical phase of the camera video output signal may be disturbed.

7.White Balance Setting (WHITE BAL)

7-1. Auto-Tracing White Balance Mode (ATW)

You can select one of three modes for white balance adjustment as follows: The factory default setting is ATW1.

• ATW1 (Auto-Tracing White Balance 1)

Move the cursor to WHITE BAL and

select ATW1.

tions:

 

 

 

 

1.The color temperature is out of the 2 600 - 6 000K range.

2.When the scene contains mostly high color temperature objects, such as a blue sky or sunset.

3.When the scene is dim.

In these cases, select the AWC mode.

ATW2 (Auto-Tracing White Balance 2)

Auto-tracing white balance in sodium lamp mode (ATW2)

When you select ATW2 for sodium lamp, white balance is automatically set (no opera- tion needed).

Note: ATW1 and ATW2 do not appear for WHITE BAL on the system controller setup

menu.

Automatic White Balance Control Mode (AWC)

In this mode, accurate white balance is obtained within a color temperature range of approximately 2 300-10 000K.

1. Move the cursor to WHITE BAL and select AWC PUSH SW.

3.When the white balance setting is completed, the PUSH SW returns to normal display. Note: If white balance is not set, the PUSH SW is being highlighted.

4.When you want to adjust the white bal- ance manually, press M to select AWC and press I. The AWC menu appears on the monitor screen. (When ATW is selected, pressing I dis- plays the ATW menu.)
