Cover the lens and click the 'CSR' button to perform a Current Session Reference. A CSR
is a black reference for that session. It is required before capturing the first cine and after
changing any recording parameters.
With color cameras, perform a White Balance by right-clicking an area of the image that
is neutral gray or white, as long as it is not 100 percent saturated.
SET DEFAULT CSR
For customers that rarely change their camera settings, the "Set new CSR default" feature
provides a convenient alternative to this process. It is available in versions of PCC 3.77 and
higher. The camera must operate at full resolution, for example 1280 x 1024 for the C211.
The Set Default CSR is set for the frame rate and exposure time being used. That CSR will
remain through turning the camera off and on, for as long as that setting is not changed.
Step 1: Enable in PCC:
FINE-TUNE SETTINGS
After CSR and White Balance are performed, adjust settings, aperture and/or lighting to get a
good exposure. A CSR must be performed after any camera settings are adjusted.
'ARM' CAMERA
Click the 'Capture' button to start recording to the camera's internal RAM memory buffer.
Step 2: Right click the CSR button in the live tab,
and select "Set Default CSR"
