Function/Set Value

Initial Value

Auto Black Control

Use this function when darker parts of a picture are unclear

OFF

 

even after the gain has been increased using the AGC (Auto

 

 

Gain Control).

 

 

 

ON : When the black level of the video signal is low, the

 

 

 

pedestal level is increased automatically in order to

 

 

 

improve the clarity of the darker parts.

 

 

OFF : Turns this function off.

 

Average : Peak

Sets the method of exposure detection according to ratio be-

8:2

 

tween the average and peak values.

 

 

• Large Average value : Use this setting when areas other than

 

 

 

 

those highlighted are dark and unclear.

 

 

 

 

(Example: 10:0)

 

 

• Large Peak value

: Use this setting when halation occurs

 

 

 

 

at the highlighted areas.

 

 

 

 

Use this setting when areas other than

 

 

 

 

those highlighted are dark and unclear.

 

 

 

 

(Example: 5:5)

 

 

Set value

: 10:0, 9:1, 8:2, 7:3, 6:4, 5:5

 

Shutter

Sets the speed of the electronic shutter.

1/60

 

Set value : 1/60, 1/100, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000, 1/2000, 1/4000,

 

 

 

1/10000

 

 

 

Notes

 

 

 

To reduce flickering that occurs under fluorescent

 

 

 

lighting, set the shutter speed to 1/100 if your local power

 

 

 

supply frequency is 50 Hz, and to 1/60 if it is 60 Hz.

 

 

The higher the shutter speed, the more prominent will

 

 

 

be the smear phenomenon. This is a phenomenon that

 

 

 

is characteristic of CCDs, whereby white stripes appear

 

 

 

at the top and bottom of a bright light source.

 

 

 

 

AGC

Sets the maximum gain of the AGC (Auto Gain Control), which

10 dB

 

electronically increases the gain when the object is under low

 

 

light conditions.

 

 

 

OFF

: Disable AGC.

 

 

10 dB : Increase gain by a maximum of 10 dB according to

 

 

 

the brightness of the object.

 

 

20 dB : Increase gain by a maximum of 20 dB according to

 

 

 

the brightness of the object.

 

Note

The screen may appear grainy at dark places when the gain level is increased.
