○White balance

To obtain the proper color tone, adjust the white balance before use. Three modes are selectable.

(1) Full-Auto mode:

With the white balance switch at [AUTO] position, the camera automatically adjusts to the color temperature and adjusts the white balance. The camera will then automatically follow the change in color temperature of the object.

Set [AUTO] position for normal use.

With this setting, the indicator lights on.

(2) Push-set Auto mode

With the white balance switch at [PUSH SET] position, press the push set button while shooting a completely white object.

The white balance indicator lights on when the white balance is completed. If the indicator will not light on, the camera will not follow the change in color temperature of the object properly.

Start shooting while looking at the monitor screen or select the manual mode for precise adjustment.

The camera will not follow the change in color temperature at this mode.

Note: Reset the white balance once the power is turned off and on, or the color temperature of object is changed.

(3) Manual mode

With the white balance switch at [MANU.] position, turn the R (red) and B (blue) knobs while observing the white object on the monitor screen.

In this case, select "1/100" sec. shutter speed. Leave the 1/60 sec. mode (original setting) for the use under the 60Hz area.

○Iris

Exposure is automatically compensated when the iris control knob is kept at middle position. Exposure can be manually adjusted by turning the iris control knob.

○Microphone

When using the video monitor with the audio-in terminal, connecting the microphone into the mic. jack allow the simultaneous output of the audio signal from the monitor speaker and video signals.

Adjust the mic. volume to obtain the optimum volume of the microphone.

The audio signal of the microphone is output in monaural either from the left or right audio-out terminal.

When the indicator of input selection is lit, the microphone can be used.

○LCD monitor shoe

The optional LCD monitor shoe, type MS-100 is available for attaching an LCD monitor with a tripod screw hole (commercially-available) onto the EV-500AF.

(Refer to the operation manual for the LCD monitor for connection.)

EXTERNAL SYNC. ADJUSTMENT

This adjustment is necessary when images from several AV sources, such as the Visual Presenter, video cameras, and other equipment (including ELMO film-to-video converter TRV-35G, TRV-16G), are composed to be projected on a single monitor.

Horizontal sync. position adjustment and sub carrier position adjustment are required to match the color phases of each image.

A video mixer is necessary to reproduce a composite image. The connection method differs depending on the type of the video mixer. Refer to the instruction manual of the respective video mixer for additional information on connection method.

● Horizontal sync. phase adjustment

This adjustment is used to adjust the horizontal phase when the Visual Presenter is subject to ext. sync. (GEN-LOCK). When adjusting the phase, use an adequate (−) screwdriver or the like.

● Sub-Carrier Phase Adjustment

This adjustment is carried out if the color phase of the image output signal of the Visual Presenter is not appropriately adjusted to the base signal when overlapping images.

Set the color phase control switch for adjusting the color phase of the image to color phase of the base signal to bring each color phase as close as possible.

Fine adjusting by color phase volume is further carried out.

When adjusting the sub-carrier phase, use an adequate (−) screwdriver or the like.

TROUBLE SHOOTING HINTS

SymptomPossible Cause/Countermeasure
No Images on TV monitor·Cable is not properly connected to the video-in terminal of monitor.·The power cord is disconnected from the wall AC outlet.·The plug is disconnected from the outlet.·Power is not turned on.·Zoom is set at tele to display only white part of the material.
Out of focus·The object is too close to the lens. Check that does not stand higher than 100mm from stage surface.·The 3-D object is not focused unless the sub column (camera head) is extended.·The object on the stage is not focused if the close-up lens is removed from the camera head.·Zoom is set at Tele after focusing at Wide angle.Focus on the point of max. Tele.·It is difficult to automatically focus on such objects as referred on page 15.
The lamp is not quickly turned on.·This is caused by the built-in safety circuit for protecting the lamp. This is not a fault.
Image is too dark.·The iris control knob (IRIS) is set at dark side (CLOSE).·The illumination is not sufficient. Use the lighting unit.
Input selection can not be made.·Inputting to S-video while connecting output of C-video to the monitor or vice versa.
The playback image is stripped looking.This is caused by the interference strips between the dot of printed material and the scanning line. This is not fault. Turn the volume [DETAIL] counterclockwise slightly.
Flickers on TV monitor.Set the shutter speed to 1/100 to reduce flickers.

*If trouble still persists even after checking the above, consult your dealer or an authorized Elmo service center.
