(2) Proportional Pan-Tilt Speed (PROPO. P/T)
If ON is selected, the pan-tilt speed changes auto-
matically corresponding to the zoom ratio. For
example, the pan-tilt speed slows down when the
camera zooms in. See page 28 for details.
(3) Area Title (AREA TITLE)
Up to 8 area titles can be assigned to specific
scenes on the DIRECTION (NESW) menu or by
alphanumeric (USER) assignment. The area title is
displayed under the camera ID on the monitor
screen when the camera turns to a position that has
been assigned an area title. See page 28 for details.
(4) Patrol-learn and Patrol Play (PATROL)
A set of manual operations is stored (LEARN), repro-
duced (PLAY) or turned inactive (OFF). Patrol opera-
tion stops if SEQ, SORT or AUTO PAN is set to
AUTO MODE on the SETUP menu. See page 30 for
details.
(5) Alarm Input/Output (ALARM IN/OUT)
Alarm input and output are set on a submenu.
Preset positions are assigned to ALARM IN 1 to 4.
When alarm inputs are supplied via the alarm input
connector, the camera turns to the respective posi-
tions. Then the camera sends output signals via the
alarm output connector or the coaxial cable to the
external devices. The B/W mode may be chosen if
light is insufficient. CNT-CLS (Contact Closure) 1, 2
and COAX ALM OUT are used for alarm output set-
ting. See page 31 for details.
(6) Cleaning (CLEANING)
This is used for refreshing the electric-mechanical
contacts built in the camera. Use this function for
maintenance when the camera has been directed at
a specific spot or panned over a specific range for a
long time.
(7) Electronic Zoom (EL-ZOOM)
Up to 10-fold electronic zooming is available
besides 22-fold optical zooming.
(8) Preset Alarm (PRESET ALM)
Alarm signals are generated in the following cases if
ON is selected.
• When a preset positioning sequence is completed
while AUTO MODE is set to SEQ.
• When a preset positioning sequence is completed
while AUTO MODE is set to SORT.
• Positioning is completed at the HOME position in the
SELF RETURN mode.
• Positioning is completed in the ALARM IN mode.
• When positioning to the starting point is completed
while AUTO MODE is set to AUTO PAN.
• When positioning to the starting point is completed
while PATROL is set to PLAY.
(9) Image Hold (IMAGE HOLD)
The camera picture remains as a still image on the
monitor screen or until the camera reaches the pre-
set position. This function is useful for surveillance
via a local area network.
(10)Tilt Angle 0 °/5 °
You can select a titling range. If 5 ° is selected, the
tilting angle is adjustable up to 5 ° beyond the hori-
zontal position.
● Camera
(1) Camera Identification (CAMERA ID)
You can use the camera identification to assign a
name to the camera. The camera ID consists of up
to 16 alphanumeric characters. You can select
whether to have the camera ID displayed on the
monitor screen or not. See page 34 for the setting.
(2) Light Control (ALC/MANUAL)
You can select a mode for adjusting the lens iris.
There are two modes as follows:
ALC: The lens iris is automatically adjusted accord-
ing to the brightness of an object.
You can select one of two modes (SUPER-D2
ON or SUPER-D2 OFF) of backlight compensa-
tion.
Backlight compensation is available in the ALC
mode. It eliminates strong background light
which makes the camera picture dark such as a
spotlight.
MANUAL: The lens iris is fixed at the value that you
have set regardless of the brightness of an
object.
• ALC Mode with SUPER-D2 ON
Super-Dynamic 2 Function (SUPER-D2)
The important object in a scene is usually placed in
the center of the monitor's screen. In the SUPER-D2
mode, photometric weight is given more to the cen-
ter of the screen (where the important object is
located) than to the edge of the picture (where a
bright backlight would most likely to be located).
You can use the SUPER-D2 function if you select
ALC. The function eliminates interference by strong
background lighting which makes the camera pic-
ture dark, such as a spotlight.
See page 35 for the setting.
• ALC Mode with SUPER-D2 OFF
In this mode, the picture is divided into 48 areas. If
there is a source of brightness that interferes with
the clarity of the picture in these masks, correspon-
ding areas mask the light to keep the clarity of the
picture.
