G Special 1 Menu
(1) Privacy Zone (PRIVACY ZONE)
This setting is used for masking unwanted zones,
hiding them from display on the monitor screen.
Up to 8 zones can be registered. Submenus are
provided for zone number selection and parameter
setting. See page 35 for details.
(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 36 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 37 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 38 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. CNT-CLS (Contact Closure) 1, 2
and COAX ALM OUT are used for alarm output set-
ting. See page 40 for details.
(6) Cleaning (CLEANING)
This is used for refreshing the electro-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.
G 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 42 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 (BLC ON or
BLC OFF) of backlight compensation.
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 BLC ON
The important object in a scene is usually placed in
the centre of the monitor's screen. In the BLC mode,
photometric weight is given more to the centre 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 BLC function if you select ALC. The
function eliminates interference by strong back-
ground lighting which makes the camera picture
dark, such as a spotlight.
See page 43 for the setting.
