For details, refer to the operating instructions for the controller.
<NOTE>
• When the focus is set to manual, the subject may go out of focus
during panning, tilting and zooming. Therefore, the unit comes with a
function which compensates for this. (Focus Adjust With PTZ.)
If the function has been set to [Off], either adjust the focus, as
required, after zooming or set the focus to auto.

Manually adjusting the shutter speed

The shutter speed can be set using two methods. One is a method that
specifies the time (where a time such as 1/250 sec. is designated), and
the other is a method that specifies the frequency (where synchro scan,
60.2 Hz, etc. is designated).
When shooting a TV screen or personal computer's monitor screen, the
horizontal noise generated when the screen is shot can be minimized by
adjusting the frequency to the screen frequency using synchro scan.
When performing operations from a wireless
remote control
Perform the adjustments on the Camera menu.
For details, refer to the [Shutter Mode] (→ page 48) and [Step/
Synchro] (→ page 48).

Manually adjusting the gain

There are two ways to adjust the gain. One way involves using the
buttons on the wireless remote control or controller; the other way
involves using the Camera menu or Web setup screen [Setup]. The gain
can be adjusted more precisely using the Camera menu or Web setup
screen [Setup].
For details, refer to the [Gain] (→ page 48, page 113).
<NOTE>
• When adjusting the gain, the light quantity may change suddenly
(causing the image output to be subjected to a shock).
When performing operations from a wireless
remote control
1. Press one of the <GAIN> buttons (<OFF>, <LOW> or
<HI>).
These buttons enable the gain increase to be selected in three steps.
The <LOW> button is used to select 9 dB; the <HI> button is used to
select 18 dB.
2.
If necessary, press the <AUTO> button of <GAIN> in
order to return the gain to the automatic adjustment
(AGC).
When performing operations from a controller
When using an AW‑RP150 or AW‑RP60
For details, refer to the operating instructions for the controller.
In any case, the maximum gain of the automatic adjustment (AGC) can
be set by the camera menu or Web setup screen [Setup].
For details, refer to the [AGC Max Gain] (→ page 48, page 113).
