Pan/Tilt

Pan/Tilt is a function used to move a camera up and down or left and right, however this camera supports a video mode much smaller than the CCD’s effective pixels by cutting out images from the whole screen. You can specify the portion to be cut out using Pan/ Tilt commands. One unit of movement is two pixels. Refer to the table for the video modes in which Pan/ Tilt commands can be used and the variable ranges for the mode. The values in parentheses are the initial settings.

When a video mode is changed, the initial Pan/Tilt values for the mode are set.

On the XCD-SX910CR/X710CR, if you set the value of Pan/Tilt to maximum, the pixels on the edge of the picture may not be output correctly.

Functions

Memory Channels

This camera is equipped with two channels non- volatile memory to hold camera settings.

The settings of all camera features and the video mode can be stored.

The camera memorizes the channel most recently used to read out the setting information, and retains it, even if the power is turned off. Therefore, the camera loads the information from that channel when the power is turned on.

The video mode settings are loaded only when the power is turned on.

To start up the camera with the desired setting, perform the following procedure.

1Make changes to the camera features or the video mode settings.

2Store the current setting in Memory Channel 1 or Memory Channel 2.

3Load the information that was stored in step 2.

Thus, when you start up the camera the next time, the settings that you have made will be loaded automatically.

Using the CameraInitialize command, the setting information stored in the channels is cleared and the camera features and the video mode are initialized. To preserve the information in the channels, be sure not to send the CameraInitialize command while driver software or application software is starting up.

The value of Pan/Tilt is initialized when the video mode is changed. To preserve the value, be sure not to change the video mode while driver software or application software is starting up, or before sending the video start command.
