1.Move the cursor to the BW parameter.

2.Select AUTO1, AUTO2, EXT, ON or OFF using L or M.

Default: OFF

AUTO1: The camera selects black and white mode if the picture is dark, or color mode if the pic- ture is bright enough.

Note: Color picture switches to black-and- white picture and vice versa in approxi- mately 1 or 2 minutes after recognition of illuminance.

AUTO2: Applying AUTO1 may cause malfunction when using a source of near-infrared light at night because the illuminance changes signifi- cantly when switching between the color pic- ture and the black-and-white picture. But AUTO2 allows the unit to prevent malfunction because it simply recognizes a source of light. Note: Because a source of light is simply rec-

ognized based on the information from CCD image pickup element, an object sometimes can not be recognized suc- cessfully when the object is always mov- ing or the object and its background have the same color.

When you apply this mode, AUTO2, the wavelength of the light source should be 800 nm or more.

-40-

EXT: Color picture reverts to black-and-white when an external day/night switching signal is received (refer to alarm connections).

ON: Black and white mode is selected.

OFF: Color mode is selected.
