l   Adjusting Camera Position When 
Changing Cameras (PAN OFFSET SET) 
The  system  controller  etc.  has  a  function  for 
downloading	 (saving)	and	uploading	 (recovering) 	
setting  information  for  the  camera.  This  function  allows 
you	 to	upload	 (recover)	 original	setting	information	 that	
has	 been	 downloaded	 (saved)	before	some	unforeseen	
damage or malfunction causes setting information in the 
camera  to  be  lost.  However,  there  may  be  some  slight 
differences	 in	images	 from	those	 uploaded	 (recovered)	
when	 the	camera	 is	changed.	 The	"PAN	 OFFSET	 SET"	
function is for adjusting these differences. 
	1.	 Align 	the 	cursor 	with 	"PAN 	OFFSET 	SET" 	with 	the 	←  or 
→ 	arrow,	 and	press	 the	CAM	 (SET)	 button	 to	set	 the	
offset value.
    Set  the  offset  value  to  0.0,  or  in  a  range  of  -10.0  to 
+10.0.	 All	preset	 positions	 for	the	 camera's	 position	
are adjusted according to the offset value.
Important:
•		 Data 	is 	not 	compatible 	with 	existing 	cameras.	
U p l o a d i n g 	s e t t i n g 	i n f o r m a t i o n 	f ro m 	e x i s t i n g	
cameras  will  damage  data  in  the  camera.  If  data 
in  the  camera  is  damaged,  download  camera 
setting information from a camera that still has the 
factory  settings  and  then  upload  it  to  the  camera 
with the damaged data.
l  Preset ID Setting (PRESET ID) 
The  preset  ID  is  a  series  of  alphanumeric  characters 
that indicate the location of the camera. 
 1.  Move  the  cursor  to  PRESET  ID,  and  then  tilt  the 
joystick	 left	or	right	 to	toggle	 preset	ID	display	 ON	
and	OFF.		
	2.	 Select 	ON 	or 	OFF, 	and 	then 	press 	the 	CAM 	(SET)	
button. 
	 	 The	factory	default	setting	is	ON.	 	
    This will display the preset ID setting menu.

the  cursor  to  CAMERA
 ,  and  then  press  the  CAM 
(SET)	button.
    This will display the camera setup menu.

2  Light Control (ALC/MANUAL) 
	1.	 Move	 the	cursor	 to	ALC/MANUAL,	 and	then	 tilt	the	
joystick  left  or  right  to  toggle  between  ALC  and 
MANUAL.	
   ALC  :   Enables automatic lens iris adjustment in 
accordance  with  subject  brightness. 
Select  this  ALC  when  using  SUPER-D6.  
This is the factory default setting. 
    MANUAL  :  Adjust the lens iris with the IRIS button on 
the system controller.
	 	 	 	 Fixes	the	lens	iris.	
	2.	 If	 ALC	is	set	 in	step	 1,	press	 the	CAM	 (SET)	 button	
to set SUPER-D6. 
SUPER-D6 (Super Dynamic 6) 
When there is wide variation between the illumination of 
light  and  dark  areas  of  the  location  being  monitored, 
the camera adjusts the lens iris in accordance with the 
bright  areas.  This  causes  loss  of  detail  in  dark  areas. 
Conversely,  adjusting  lens  brightness  for  the  dark 
areas  cause  brighter  area  to  become  washed  out. 
SUPER-D6  digitally  combines  an  image  that  is  set  up 
for a clear view of bright areas with an image that is set 
up for a clear view of dark areas, creating a final image 
that preserves overall detail. 
Notes:

•		 Camera	 settings	are	limited	 to	the	 following	 when	
SUPER-D6 is turned on. 
   SHUTTER  :	OFF,	AUTO	(page	10)	
   SENS UP  :	OFF,	AUTO	(page	10)	
•		 If	 lighting	 conditions	 cause	either	of	the	 following	
phenomena, turn off SUPER-D6. 
	 (1)	 Screen	flickering	or	abnormal	color
	 (2)	 Digital	noise	in	the	bright	areas	of	the	screen
  3.  Move  the  cursor  to  SUPER-D6,  and  then  tilt  the 
joystick	left	or	right	to	toggle	between	ON	and	OFF.		
     ON  : Turns on SUPER-D6.	(Go	to	Step	6)	
     OFF  : Turns off SUPER-D6.	(Go	to	Step	4)	
  
  This is the factory default setting. 
  4.  Move  the  cursor  to  MASK  SET   
,  and  then  press 
the	CAM	(SET)	button.	
    This  will  display  the  mask  area  screen,  with  the 
cursor in the upper left cell. 
  5.  M a s k   t h e   c e l l s   i n   t h e   a re a   w h e re   b a c k g ro u n d

brightness level to be ignored.

  AUTO : This setting, by moving the shutter automatical- 
    ly when necessary, provides a clearer picture  
	 			of	extremely	bright	objects	outdoors,	etc.		
  OFF  : 	 Fixed	at	1/50	seconds.
	 	 The	factory	default	setting	is	AUTO.
Notes:
•		 	When 	AUTO 	is 	selected 	for 	the 	shutter 	setting,	
fluorescent  lighting  may  cause  flickering  of  the 
picture.	 If	this	 happens,	 select	OFF	for	the	 shutter	
speed setting.
•		 AUTO 	is 	disabled 	when 	MANUAL 	is 	selected 	for 	
light	 control	 (ALC/MANUAL)	 and	FIX	is	selected	 for	
electronic	sensitivity	enhancement	(SENS	UP).	
4  Gain Control (AGC)
  1.  Move  the  cursor  to  AGC,  and  then  tilt  the  joystick 
left or right to select a gain control setting. 
  ON (LOW)  : Low gain
  ON (MID)  :  Medium gain. This is the factory default 
setting. 
  ON (HIGH)  : High gain
  OFF  : Does not increase the gain
Note: 
•		When 	AGC 	is 	tur ned 	on, 	the 	noise 	reduction

illumination  to  reduce  digital  noise.  This  also, 
however,  can  cause  afterimages  to  be  generated 
by  moving  objects,  and  by  panning  and  tilting  the 
c a m e r a . 	F o r 	m o re 	i n f o r m a t i o n , 	s e e 	t h e 	D N R	
setting	(page	11).	
 
5  Electronic Sensitivity Enhancement (SENS UP) 
	1.	 Move 	the 	cursor 	to 	SENS 	UP, 	and 	then 	tilt 	the	
joystick left or right to select an electronic sensitivity 
enhancement setting. 
    The  electronic  sensitivity  enhancement  setting  can 
be	changed	 only	when	 OFF	or	AUTO	 is	selected	 for	
the 	shutter 	speed 	(SHUTTER) 	setting. 	Tilting 	the	
joystick  cycles  through  the  settings  display  in  the 
sequence shown below. 
   When SUPER-D6  is turned off
When setting MANUAL of ALC/MANUAL
   When SUPER-D6  is turned on
   The	factory	default	setting	is	OFF.
   
Use the following steps to perform masking 
	 (1)	 Tilt	 the	joystick	 up	and	 down,	 and	left	and	 right	
to move the cursor to a cell you want to mask. 
	 (2)	 Press	the	CAM	(SET)	button	to	mask	the	cell.	
    M o v i n g   t h e   c u r s o r   t o   a   c e l l   t h a t   i s   a l re a d y

cursor	to 	alternate 	between 	horizontal 	stripes	
and white. 
	 	 Pressing	 the	CAM	 (SET)	 button	 while	the	cursor	
is located at a masked cell cancels the masking 
of the cell.

button.
	 (3)	 After	 masking	all	of	the	 cells	 you	want,	 press	 the	
MON 	(ESC) 	button 	to 	return 	to 	the 	ALC 	CONT	
menu in step 1.
  6.  Move  the  cursor  to  LEVEL,  and  then  tilt  the  joystick 
left  and  right  to  adjust  the  picture  output  level 
(picture	contrast).	
	 	 If	 you	selected	 ON	in	step	 3	of	 this	 procedure,	 best	
results  can  be  obtained  by  setting  a  contrast  level 
that  is  somewhat  high.  A  contrast  level  that  is  too 
high,  however,  may  increase  the  tendency  of 
afterimages and noise. 
3  Shutter Speed (SHUTTER) 
  1.  Move  the  cursor  to  SHUTTER,  and  then  tilt  the 
j o y s t i c k   l e f t   o r   r i g h t   t o   s e l e c t   a   s h u t t e r   s p e e d 
setting. 
    Tilting the joystick cycles through the shutter speed 
settings display in the sequence shown below.

Note: 
•		If	 operation	 of	the	 system	 controller's	 IRIS	(OPEN,	
CLOSE) 	button 	during 	operation 	is 	done 	after 	the	
menu  is  closed,  the  LEVEL  on  the  CAMERA  menu 
is reflected and stored for these settings. However, 
if  the  camera  is  in  a  preset  position,  it  is  reflected 
as  a  parameter  of  the  preset  position.  To  return  to 
the	 initial	 factory	 default	level,	execute	 the	system	
controller’s iris reset.
