7. White Balance Setting (WHITE BAL)
7-1. Auto-Tracing White Balance Mode (ATW)
You can select one of two modes for white balance adjustment as follows:
• ATW (Auto Tracing White Balance)
In this mode, the color temperature is monitored continuously and thereby white bal-
ance is set automatically. The color temperature range for the proper white balance is
approximately 2 600 - 6 000K. Proper white balance may not be obtained under the fol-
lowing conditions:
1. The color temperature is out of the 2 600 - 6 000K range.
2. When the scene contains mostly high color temperature objects, such as a blue
sky or sunset.
3. When the scene is dim. 
In these cases, select the AWC mode.
Move the cursor to the WHITE BAL parameter and select ATW. The white balance of the
camera is automatically set.
• Automatic White Balance Control Mode (AWC)
In this mode, accurate white balance is obtained within a color temperature range of
approximately 2 300-10 000K.
1. Move the cursor to the WHITE BAL
parameter and select AWC →PUSH
SW.
2. Press  to start the white balance
setup. The PUSH SW is highlighted to
indicate that the white balance is being
set.
3. When the white balance setting is com-
pleted, the PUSH SW returns to normal
display.
Note:In case that the white balance is not set, the PUSH SW Is being highlighted.
4. When you want to adjust the white bal-
ance manually, press  to select
AWC and press  . The AWC menu
appears on the monitor. (When ATW is
selected, pressing  displays the
ATW menu.)

							8. Motion Detector Setting (MOTION DET)
The motion detector detects the moving objects in the scene by monitoring changes in
brightness level. You can select the level of sensitivity for motion detection.
When this camera is connected to a compatible intelligent CCTV system, the camera trans-
mits an alarm signal by multiplexing it with the video signal.
1. Move the cursor to the MOTION DET
parameter and select ON.
2. Press  . The MOTION DETECT menu
appears on the monitor screen.
3. Move the cursor to MASK SET and press  . MASK SET lets you set 48 mask areas.
To set MASK SET, proceed as described in steps 2 to 4 of “ALC mode with SUPER-D2
OFF and ELC mode”.
4. Move the cursor to the ALARM parameter and select ON or OFF to set the alarm for
DISPLAY MODE.
Note:When the system controller WV-RM70, WV-CU550, WV-CU550A, or WV-CU151 is
used with this model, select OFF for ALARM.
5. Move the cursor to DISPLAY MODE and press  to see the current setting. The
masks that detect the brightness changes start blinking.
6. To raise detection sensitivity, press  to return to the MOTION DETECT menu.
7. To obtain the optimum detection level, move the “I” cursor to adjust the level.
8. Repeat the procedures above to obtain a satisfactory setting.
Notes:
•Masking or adjusting the detection level is needed to prevent malfunction under the fol-
lowing conditions:
•When shooting an object under flickering fluorescent light or shooting in ELC.
•When leaves or curtains etc. are swayed by the wind.
•When the object is lighted by lighting equipment that constantly turns on and off.
•It takes about 0.2 seconds for the alarm signal to reach the alarm terminal of the VCR
after the camera detects the object.
Because the alarm signal is multiplexed on the video signal, it may be mistakenly inter-
preted by other video equipment as a time code signal.
Therefore, when the camera is not used in a Panasonic Intelligent CCTV System select
OFF to prevent the above from occurring.
9. Lens Drive Signal Selection (LENS DRIVE)
This item is used to select the type of auto iris lens drive signal to be supplied to the lens
