:

When using an inner cover (WV-Q157 or an accessory of optional mount bracket), upper side of images will be hidden (become black) when the tilt angle of the camera is almost level. (When “–5°” is selected for “Tilt Angle” on the setup menu, upper half of images will be hidden.) In this case, images will also be washed out depending on the object when “On” is selected for “AGC” on the setup menu

(page 103).

If “–20°”, “–25°” or “–30°” is selected, the area hidden by the camera housing may increase when the

tilt angle of the camera is almost level.

SW396 SC386 :

If “–10°” or “–15°” is selected, auto mode stops. To restart auto mode, start auto mode again.

If “–10°” or “–15°” is selected, when the camera reaches the tilting angle of 90°, the camera pans or tilts at high speed to the reverse direction. In this way, it is possible to control the camera while displaying images in proper orientation (Pan/tilt-flip function).

[Pan/tilt-flip]SW395 SC385 SC384

Select the pan/tilt-flip setting from the following.

On: When the camera reaches the panning or tilting end during manual operation, the camera pans or tilts at high speed to the reverse direction. In this way, it is possible to control the camera without having to stop panning/tilting and displaying images in proper orientation.

Off: Pan/tilt-flip does not work.

Default: On

Note

When the zoom ratio is adjusted to the “Tele” side, images will be partially hidden even if the pan/ tilt-flip function is activated.
