Basic Functions Threshold values • You can set the threshold value that determines high or low intensity. • The minimum threshold value is 1h (decimal: 1), and the maximum threshold value is FE1h (decimal: 4065). • The default setting for the threshold value is 200h (decimal: 512). Grayscale image (256 levels) Color image Binarization process Assign any color Image Stabilizer (FCB-EH3400/EH3410 only) Switching ON the Image Stabilizer function reduces image blurring caused by, for example, vibration, which allows you to obtain images without much blurring. A correction effect of approximately 90% is possible for a vibration frequency of around 10 Hz. The Image Stabilizer function employs the digital zoom system, so the angle of view and resolution are changed, but the sensitivity is maintained. Hold Function of Image Stabilizer With the Image Stabilizer function, suddenly stopping high-speed movement (pan, tilt, etc.) of the camera produces a blur sensor counteraction that may cause image movement. In such a case, you can use a command setting (hold) to maintain the correction of the Image Stabilizer function. In this case the image stabilizer is off, but there is no change in the angle of view. Note When image stabilizer is activated, residual movement may appear on the top and bottom of the image. Temperature Reading Function The conversion value (hex) of the temperature sensor built into to the camera can be read by using a query command. The conversion value has an error of ±3 C, and because the temperature sensor is inside the camera, this value is not the ambient temperature. Use it as a reference value. Slow shutter - Auto/Manual When set to "Auto," ensures that the slow shutter is set automatically when the brightness drops. Effective only when the AE mode is set to "Full Auto." Set to "Slow Shutter Manual" at shipment. Note The Slow Shutter Auto function is not available in WD mode. Low-Illumination Chroma Suppress Mode You can configure a chroma suppress mode for lowillumination conditions. This can be useful when color noise is particularly noticeable in such conditions. Four levels (disabled and three levels) are available for the low-illumination chroma suppress mode. Set the effect to be applied at approximately 15 dB. Higher setting values produce stronger chroma suppressing effects. ICR (IR Cut-Removable) Mode An infrared (IR) Cut-Filter can be disengaged from the image path for increased sensitivity in low light environments. The ICR will automatically engage depending on the ambient light, allowing the camera to be effective in day/night environments. When the auto ICR mode is set to ON, the image becomes black and white. Custom Color Gain You can customize and configure the color gain. Use this setting when bright color is particularly important. The initial setting 100% (4h) can be set to range from approx. 60% (Oh) to 200% (Eh) with 15 stages. Custom Color Phase You can customize and configure the color phase. The initial setting 0 degrees (7h) is adjustable between approx. −14 degrees (0h) and +14 degrees (Eh), in 15 increments. Auto ICR Mode Auto ICR Mode automatically switches the settings needed for attaching or removing the IR Cut Filter. With a set level of darkness, the IR Cut Filter is automatically disabled (ICR ON), and the infrared sensitivity is increased. With a set level of brightness, the IR Cut Filter is automatically enabled (ICR OFF). Also, on systems equipped with an IR light, the internal data of the camera is used to make the proper decisions to avoid malfunctions. Auto ICR Mode operates with the AE Full Auto setting. 12
