6. Synchronization setting [SYNC]
This unit supports the following 5 types of synchronization methods, and one of the following is
selected. 
The order of descriptions below indicates the order of priorities. 
qMultiplexed vertical drive signal (VD2) 
wPower supply synchronization (LL)  
* Synchronization is performed on the basis of the power supply frequency. 
eComposite color video signal or black burst signal (VBS) 
rMonochrome composite video signal or composite synchronizing signal (VS) 
tInternal synchronization (INT) (default) 
Input of a multiplexed vertical drive signal (VD2) automatically switches to the VD2 synchro-
nization even if the camera is set to other than the VD2 synchronization method.
The set item displays are shown in the chart below with accordance with a synchronization sig-
nal input. 
* These items are switchable with use of the right or left button. 
When LL, VBS, or VS is selected, power supply synchronizing phase, genlock horizontal
phase, subcarrier phase, and others can be set up. (pages 32 - 34)
Note:
When INT is selected, do not provide synchronization signals to the external synchroniz-
ing input connector on the rear side of the camera.

7. White balance setting [WHITE BAL]
The white balance adjustment is selectable from the following.
ATW1 (default):Activates the automatic color temperature tracking mode.  The camera contin-
uously measures the color temperature of the light source and automatically adjusts the
white balance. Manual fine adjustment is also enabled after automatic white balance set-
ting. (page 36)
The adjustment of the color temperature ranges from approx. 2 700 K to 6 000 K.  If the sit-
uation meets one of the following or other, color may not be accurately reproduced. 
• The subject is mostly highly-colored. 
• The photographic atmosphere is under the bright blue sky or at nightfall. 
• The illumination of the light illuminating the subject is low. 
ATW2:Activates the sodium lamp automatic color temperature tracking mode.  The camera
automatically achieves an optimal white balance under the sodium lamp. 
The adjustment of the color temperature ranges from approx. 2 000 K to 6 000 K.
AWC:Activates the automatic white balance control mode. This adjustment is suitable for a
location where a light source is stable. The adjustment of the color temperature ranges
from approx. 2 000 K to 10 000 K.  When AWC is selected, the operation to adjust the
white balance is required. 
When AWC is selected, follow the steps below to adjust the white balance.

8. Motion detector function setting [MOTION DET] 
The motion detector function is set. Either MODE1 or MODE2 is selected. When MODE1 is
selected, the detailed settings such as settings of the detection sensitivity and detection area
are required. The detection area can be specified and checked in the demonstration mode. 
MODE1:Provides an alarm signal when a motion is detected. 
MODE2:Provides an alarm signal when the camera is covered or the camera direction is
changed. 
OFF (default):Disables the motion detector function. 
Description about motion detector function (MODE1) 
This function split a screen into 48 blocks, detects brightness change in each block, and pro-
vides an alarm signal when a change (motion) is observed in the image of the shooting area. 
This function allows users to record the camera image on a recording device when an alarm
sounds. 
Manual fine adjustment of white balance
The white balance is manually fine adjusted after white balance automatically adjustment in the
automatic color temperature tracking mode (ATW) or automatic white balance control mode
(AWC). 
Follow the procedure below for white balance fine adjustment. 
Step 1
Set WHITE BAL to ATW1, ATW2 or AWC
and press the setting button. 
→The fine adjustment screen appears.
Step 2
Move the cursor to R and B and use the
right or left button to fine adjust the level for
each. R represents red and B represents
blue. When the level indicator moves in the
+ direction, the color becomes deeper, and
when the level indicator moves in the -
direction, the color becomes lighter.

Detection condition
Subject size:A moving subject needs to be equal to or larger than 1/48 of the screen at STA-
BILIZER OFF. 
Subject contrast:The contrast ratio between the background and moving subject needs to be
equal to or larger than 5 % (at maximum sensitivity). 
Subject moving speed:The passing time for a subject to move from the end to the other end
of the screen needs to be equal to or larger than 0.8 seconds (at 5 % of contrast ratio). A
subject moving faster than the description above is undetectable. 
Note:
The larger the contrast ratio (difference between brightness and darkness) becomes, the
less the limitation on the size and moving speed of a subject becomes.  
Demonstration mode
The brightness change in each of 48-split blocks is detected, and the mask is covered on the
block where the change in the average brightness exceeds the specified detection sensitivity
level. 
The adjustment of the detection sensitivity level and the setting of the detection areas are
repeated to obtain an optimal state on the basis of the results in the demonstration mode. 
Description about motion detector function (MODE2) 
This function provides an alarm signal when a change in the state of a subject occurs by cover-
ing the camera with a cloth, a cap, or others, or by changing the camera direction largely. 
Important:
• A change in the state of a subject may not be detected in the following cases: 
• When only a part of the lens is hidden, or the cover is transparent, 
• When the subjects are similar between before and after changing the camera direction. 
• False detection may occur in the following cases: 
• When a change in brightness is significant such as turning on and off a light, 
• When the traffic volume including people and cars is high.

Step 1
Set MOTION DET to MODE1 and press the
setting button. 
→The MODE1 screen appears. 
Step 2
Move the cursor to MASK SET and press
the setting button. 
→The mask setting screen appears. 
Step 3
Perform mask setting. The operation proce-
dure is the same as the masking operation in
the process of Sensing area setting for back-
light compensation. (page 27)
Step 4
Hold down the setting button for approx.
more than 2 seconds after completion of
masking. 
→The MODE1 screen appears again. 
Step 5
Move the cursor to ALARM, and decide
whether or not to provide an alarm signal in
the demonstration mode with use of ON or
OFF. 
ON:Provides an alarm signal output in the
demonstration mode, and allows users to
check the operation on the monitor when
a motion is detection. 
OFF (default):Provides no alarm signal out-
put in the demonstration mode.  
						

							39
Step 6
Move the cursor to DISPLAY MODE and press the setting button. 
→The demonstration mode is implemented, and the blocks on which significant brightness
change was detected blink. 
Step 7
Press the setting button. 
→The demonstration mode is terminated, and MODE1 screen appears again. 
Step 8
Move the cursor to LEVEL and use the right or left button to adjust the detection sensitivity
level. When the level indicator moves in the + direction, the level becomes higher. When the
level indicator moves in the – direction, the level becomes lower. 
Repeat from Step 6 to Step 8 to obtain an optimal level. 
Step 9
Move the cursor to DWELL TIME and select an alarm detection skipping time from the follow-
ing: 
2S (default)/5S/10S/30S (S: Second)
Selection of an alarm detection skipping time disables the detection of an alarm until a lapse of
a specified time after detecting an alarm once. 
Important:
• When a curtain swaying in the wind is detected, use the masking function to exclude the
curtain from the detection area. 
• When the noise level is high under low illuminance lighting resulting in malfunction,
decrease the sensitivity (LEVEL). When the illuminance of a subject changes abruptly, e.g.
caused by car headlights or turning on and off a light, false detection may occur. 
• Approximately 0.2-second delay exists between detection of a change (motion) in image
with this unit and alarm signal output. When the setup menu is displayed, an alarm output
is not provided. (The case that ALARM is set to ON in the demonstration mode is exclud-
ed.)
• Selection of ON for the motion detector function causes a malfunction with a device that
uses a VCR time code because an alarm data output is provided during blanking. In such
a case, set the motion detector function to OFF. 
• The motion detector function is not exclusively used for prevention of theft, fire, etc. We are
not responsible for any accidents or damages occurring in case.

minance. The effect level of the noise reduction function is selectable from the following: 
LOW:Low level of noise reduction (small residual image)
MID:Medium level of noise reduction (medium residual image)
HIGH (default):High level of noise reduction (large residual image)
10. Image resolution setting [RESOLUTION]
A resolution of camera images is selectable from the following: 
NORMAL:Horizontal resolution of 480 TV lines or more 
HIGH (default):Horizontal resolution of 540 TV lines typ. 
Note:
When the electronic sensitivity enhancement function, SENS UP, is activated under the
condition that HIGH is selected, noise may increase.
