● Menu (MENU1) display when setting AEC(Auto Exposure Control)
When AEC is set ON, the value which is displayed on the left side column of
"GAIN" on MENU1 is "MGC" (Preamplifier gain), the value on the right side is
"AGC" (reference value).
In AEC operation, the exposure time is automatically controlled applying
"AGC" set value as the reference value.
In addition, though AGC set value is applied as the reference value of AEC.
combined use of AGC and AEC is not allowed.
Also, "MGC" set value is applied as the Preamplifier set value of A/D converter in AEC operation.
The current shutter exposure time is displayed in "S.TIME"column.
e.g. "A 484 h ( 14.31) ms
"A" suggests that the shutter exposure time which dynamically changes in AEC mode is now displayed.
When it reaches to upper limit or lower limit of variable range of Shutter exposure time, "
marks are displayed. e.g. "
Display of ID information
●
The ID code and other information set by the user for each camera can be
stored in the camera (The setting is executed through the serial
communication.). The settable maximum number of characters are 15, and
alphabets (both upper and lower cases), numbers and some special
symbols such as"+" and "-" excluding the control codes can be used.
Set ID code can be confirmed as it is displayed on the lower left of "MENU display of set Group 1" (On screen display)
(When ID code is not set, the camera type is displayed.)
The right figures shows the display example setting "CAMERA-1" as ID information.
Confirmation of changed settings by menu
●
They can also be changed by serial communication command confirming the currently displaying menu contents.
Each time the settings of each menu item are changed, display contents is updated.
(7-8) Description of operation mode and functional limitation
[Scan mode]
Description of scan mode
●
This camera has the following two scan modes which are selectable by setting:
Scan mode
Normal scan mode (NORMAL)
Partial scan mode (PARTIAL)
Normal scan mode......The image of all effective pixels is read out at a frame rate of 5 Hz.
●
Partial scan mode ......The image of the central area of 920 lines in vertical width is read out at a frame rate of 10Hz.
●
Functional limitation by scan mode
●
Usable functions vary by the scan mode that is currently selected.
The functions marked with O in the following table are usable and those marked with
Current scan mode
Normal scan mode (NORMAL)
Partial scan mode (PARTIAL)
(Note) Carefully note that the operation is not guaranteed if an unusable function is selected.
(Note) Caution is required especially when control is executed using the write commands for the flag register among the
serial communication commands because the incompatibility between the selected scan mode and the selected
function is not warned. Setting of an inappropriate parameter results in operation failure.
[Fast-dump mode]
Description of Fast-dump mode
●
In the asynchronous shutter operation, it can select Fast-dump mode which is effective in reducing smear on the upper
side above the image. → Refer to section 5-1.
Functional limitation by Fast-dump mode
