7 Adjust the camera angle by loosening the screw of the camera mounting base while viewing the video monitor.

Be sure to loosen the screw of the camera mounting base when the camera angle is adjusted. If the camera angle is changed when the screw is tight, excessive force is applied to the camera mounting base and camera, and accordingly they may be damaged. Be sure to tighten the screw securely after camera angle adjustment.

8 Adjust the focus.

When an auto iris lens is used, the originally adjusted focus may be slightly off depending on the iris state resulting from the focal depth of the lens. In such a case, open the iris by darkening the subject as much as possible and adjust the focus, and the focus-off state can be prevented.

Use of "ABF" of "BACK-FOCUS SETUP" in the setup menu (page 46) allows users to adjust the focus optimally in the range of the capability to automatically follow the variation in illuminance. (Note: The adjusted focal point is not necessarily the same as the optimal focal point at the specified illuminance.)

• The out-of-focus level in the near-infrared light region may be higher than that in the visible light region.

Setting "C/L B/W" of "BACK-FOCUS SETUP" to "AUTO" or "PRESET" in the setup menu allows users to adjust the focus in both the near-infrared light and visible light regions. (The variation in illuminance is not followed after focus adjustment.)

How to use varifocal lens/zoom lens

• Reset the back focus position to the CS mount default position before the back focus adjustment. (Press the right and left buttons among the operation buttons simultaneously, or move the cursor to "MANUAL-ADJ" of "BACK-FOCUS SETUP" in the setup menu and press the right and left buttons simultaneously after pressing the setting button.)
• Be aware that the adjustment method varies with varifocal lens or zoom lens models. For further information, refer to the operating instructions for the lens to be used.

Notes:

• The adjustment procedure for general varifocal lenses is described as follows: For further information, refer to the operating instructions for the lens to be used.

• Display a subject that exists as far as possible (10 m or more recommended) to adjust the back focus.

• For 8-, or 10-fold magnification lenses, adjust the back focus after setting the zoom to the WIDE end and setting the focus to the FAR end.

For 2-, or 3-fold magnification lenses, adjust the back focus after setting the zoom to the TELE end and setting the focus to the FAR end.

1. Adjust the view angle and focus coarsely by adjusting the zoom and focus of the lens to center a subject in the screen, and then perform the main adjustment of the back focus (15 pages 17 and 45).

2. When a non-Panasonic lens that has an extended range for lens focusing is used, adjust the back focus after setting the focus to a position at a short distance from the FAR end in Step 2 described above. If adjustment is performed in the extended range, appropriate adjustment cannot be obtained.

The method of controlling the quantity of light is selected from the following in accordance with the lens to be used.

ALC (default): Adjusts the iris of the lens in accordance with the brightness of a subject. This selection is suitable for use of an auto iris lens (ALC lens).

ALC+: Controls the quantity of light with a combination of the electronic shutter and auto iris. This selection is suitable at shooting a bright subject such as an outdoor subject with auto iris lens. Be aware that flicker may occur when a subject is under fluorescent lighting.

ELC: Fixes the iris of the lens to a set value. This selection is suitable for use of a lens with fixed iris or manual iris.

Backlight compensation

• If a subject has a bright light such as a spotlight in its background, the subject appears shadowy because the camera adjusts the iris in accordance with the bright area.
• To eliminate this phenomenon, masking bright areas allows users to perform backlight compensation to hide bright areas.
• Backlight compensation has two modes: One is the PRESET ON mode for automatic compensation after sensing the light conditions on the camera side, the other is PRESET OFF mode for specifying the sensing area manually.

Description about motion detector function (MODE1)

This function split a screen into 48 blocks, detects brightness change in each block, and provides an alarm signal when a change (motion) is observed in the image of the shooting area.

This function allows users to record the camera image on a recording device when an alarm sounds.

Detection condition

Subject size: A moving subject needs to be equal to or larger than 1/48 of the screen at "STABILIZER OFF".

Subject contrast: The contrast ratio between the background and moving subject needs to be equal to or larger than 5% (at maximum sensitivity).

Subject moving speed: The passing time for a subject to move from the end to the other end of the screen needs to be equal to or larger than 0.8 seconds (at 5% of contrast ratio). A subject moving faster than the description above is undetectable.

Note:

• The larger the contrast ratio (difference between brightness and darkness) becomes, the less the limitation on the size and moving speed of a subject becomes.

Demonstration mode

The brightness change in each of 48-split blocks is detected, and the mask is covered on the block where the change in the average brightness exceeds the specified detection sensitivity level.

The adjustment of the detection sensitivity level and the setting of the detection areas are repeated to obtain an optimal state on the basis of the results in the demonstration mode.

Description about motion detector function (MODE2)

This function provides an alarm signal when a change in the state of a subject occurs by covering the camera with a cloth, a cap, or others, or by changing the camera direction largely.

Important:

• A change in the state of a subject may not be detected in the following cases:
• When only a part of the lens is hidden, or the cover is transparent,
• When the subjects are similar between before and after changing the camera direction.
• False detection may occur in the following cases:
• When a change in brightness is significant such as turning on and off a light,
• When the traffic volume including people and cars is high.

Advanced settings about motion detector function (MODE1)

The description below specifies the sensitivity level and detection area of the motion detector (MODE1).

The flaw is corrected and the pixel compensation point is registered. The "PIX OFF" screen appears again. "★" is attached at the right side of the number when registration is completed. The coordinate is expressed in figures.

Notes:

• To clear the registered pixel compensation point, move the cursor to the number with which the target pixel compensation point is registered on the "PIX OFF" screen and press the setting button. The pixel compensation positioning screen appears, and then hold down the right and left buttons for more than 2 seconds simultaneously. The "PIX OFF" screen appears, the pixel compensation point is cleared, and * at the right side of the number disappears.
• When an auto iris lens with video signal type is used, the pixel compensation shall be performed after darkening the screen.
• The auto pixel compensation function starts up to automatically detect flaws by moving the cursor to "RET" on the "PIX OFF" screen and pressing the right and left buttons simultaneously. If there are points that seem to be flaws in the dark screen, up to 15 points are automatically detected and registered. In addition, once the auto pixel compensation function is activated, all of the registered pixel compensation points are cleared.
