Problem
The subject is not brought
into focus during zooming
when the manual setting is
used for the focus
Cannot focus in the Infrared
Recording Mode.
The images appear jerky
when 29.97p, 25.00p or
23.98p is selected.
Something is wrong with the
coloring of the pictures
The pictures are too light or
too dark
The images are in black and
white
The auto white balance
adjustment (AWB) does not
work
The screen is too bright in
the Infrared Recording Mode.
Iris cannot be operated in the
Infrared Recording Mode.
When fine lines or cyclical
patterns are shot, flickering
is seen or coloring is added
to them
Noise occurs in the audio
input
≥ First adjust the focus at the Tele end where the focusing accuracy is higher,
and then proceed with the zooming.
≥ Under some operating conditions, it may be hard to bring subjects into focus.
In such cases, use the focus at the auto setting
≥ Are you shooting in visible light?
The focus position is different between the visible light and the infrared light
due to difference in the refraction index. This unit assumes infrared light with
wave length of approximately 850 nm for Infrared Recording Mode. Execute
manual adjustment if necessary.
≥ This is normal operation. Images may appear somewhat jerky from time to
time.
≥ Activate the ATW (Auto tracking white adjustment) function.
≥ In some situations, the proper colors may not be reproduced using the ATW
function. In cases like this, proceed with the white balance adjustment.

≥ (When performing the operations using the controller)
Perform menu setup and switch to ATW.
[SW SETUP]→[WHITE BALANCE MODE]→[ATW]
≥ Use the ND filters to adjust light intensity.
≥ Either select the auto setting for the iris or select the manual setting and
adjust the iris manually.
≥ Set [AUTO SHUTTER LIMIT] to [OFF].
(When performing the operations using the controller)
≥ Press the [AUTO] button for IRIS to switch to auto iris adjustment.
≥ Press the [AUTO] button for GAIN to switch to auto gain adjustment.
≥ Images may be output in black and white in Infrared Recording Mode.

≥ Is the [CHROMA LEVEL] set to a value close to the lower limit?
≥ Auto White Balance (AWB) is not possible in the Infrared Recording Mode.

≥ The iris is set up to fully open in the Infrared Recording Mode to prevent
camera voyeurism. Adjust the brightness with the light source.
≥ This phenomenon occurs because the pixels are arranged systematically on
each image sensor. It is noticeable when the spatial frequency of a subject
and the pixel pitch are brought into proximity so change the camera angle or
take other such action.
≥ Confirm the following.
j Are the Camera Head, the unit, the switching hub, or other peripheral
devices grounded?
j Are power lines are running nearby?
j Is equipment generating strong electric or magnetic fields (e.g., television
and radio antennas, air conditioning compressors, power transformers)
located nearby?
≥ If the noise is not reduced via movement of surrounding devices, use a
microphone equipped with an amplifier, or connect an audio output with low
output impedance.
