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.
The variable range differs according to the selected
video mode.
When a video mode is changed, the pan/tilt values are
set to the default setting.
Brightness
This feature controls the black level of a video image.
Sharpness (Black and
white models only)
This feature controls the image quality.
A smaller value makes the image softer, and a larger
value makes it sharper.
The Sharpness feature cannot be used together with the
3 × 3 filter.
Saturation (Color
models only)
This feature controls the color density.
White Balance (Color
models only)
This feature controls the white balance by setting the R
and B levels relative to the G level.
The camera also supports the Auto white balance by
which the camera automatically adjusts the white
balance.
Hue (Color models only)
When the white balance cannot be obtained with the R
and B level adjustment, you can change the G level by
hue adjustment. Normally use the default hue setting.
Trigger Delay
Issue of a trigger signal can be delayed from the external
trigger inside the camera.
This delay adjustment is useful to get an appropriate
shooting timing when the position of the subject is not
good at a regular trigger timing.
GPIO
A general-purpose I/O port with a 2-bit output and 2-bit
input is assigned in the 12-pin connector.
This port is used for reading information of external
switches and sensors from the camera and controlling
external devices.
The output terminal is of the open-collector type and
should be pulled outside of the camera (5 to 24 V).
Note on input
Connect to ISO (GND) using an input device with a
minimum signal width of 0.5 msec and an input current
of 0.5 mA or more.
Note on output
Use the following conditions:
Recommended pull-up resistor: 4.7 kΩ
Recommended pull-up voltage: 5 V
Minimum signal width: 0.5 msec
The camera is equipped with a protective resistor of 220
Ω. If the above conditions prove difficult in use, check
the output voltage and determine the external pull-up
resistor.
