6 Basic Functions Basic Functions Overview of Functions VISCA commands are the basis of camera control. Timing Chart As VISCA Command processing can only be carried out one time in a Vertical cycle, it takes the maximum 1V cycle time for an ACK/Completion to be returned. If the Command ACK/Completion communication time can be cut shorter than the1V[...]

7 Basic Functions Zoom The FCB camera employs a 10 × optical zoom lens combined with a digital zoom function; this camera allows you to zoom up to 120 × . • Optical 10 × , f = 4.2 to 42 mm (F 1.8 to F 2.9) The horizontal angle of view is approximately 46.0 degrees (wide end) to 4.6 degrees (tele end). Digital Zoom enlarges the center of the su[...]

8 Basic Functions White Balance White Balance has the following modes, all of which can be set using VISCA Commands. • Auto White Balance This mode computes the white balance value output using color information from the entire screen. It outputs the proper value using the color temperature radiating from a black subject based on a range of value[...]

9 Basic Functions AE – Manual The shutter speed (22 steps), iris (18 steps) and gain (16 steps) can be set freely by the user. AE – Bright The bright control function adjusts both gain and iris using an internal algorithm, according to a brightness level freely set by the user. Exposure is controlled by gain when dark, and by iris when bright. [...]

10 Basic Functions Exposure Compensation Exposure compensation is a function which offsets the internal reference brightness level used in the AE mode, by steps of 1.5 dB.

11 Basic Functions Title Display • You can set a title composed of up to 11 lines. One line can contain up to 20 characters. • You can set display on/off, the horizontal position of the first character, blinking state and color for each line. • The camera gives priority to lines of a title when the camera status is displayed on the relevant l[...]

12 Basic Functions Synchronization methods Internal and external synchronization are available; VISCA Commands allow you to switch between them. • Internal synchronization An internal vibrator inside the camera generates a synchronizing signal as a basic oscillator. NTSC=28.636363 MHz PAL=17.7344 MHz • External synchronization (V-Lock Synchroni[...]
