· EXT SYNC IN is terminated with 75Ω. (It becomes high impedance when camera power is OFF).
· When the external signals specified above are input, the camera becomes external sync mode automatically.
· When no external signal is input, the camera operates in internal sync mode.
· The image may be disturbed right after the external signal is input, but this is not malfunction.
· When a signal other than specified above combination is input to the EXT SYNC IN terminal, the image might be
disturbed or no image might be output.

8. Defective Pixel Correction
8.1 Precautions
When the user executes Defective Pixel Correction and “SAVE”, the data at the factory setting will be over-written, so that
the data cannot be back to the factory setting data even when “INIT” command was executed. Execute “INIT”, then
“SAVE” to overwrite the preset data (camera settings) with the factory setting data.
If you do not wish to overwrite the preset data, load the preset data before executing SAVE. The defective pixel
correction data will be saved in one area regardless of its preset number.
Since the function only supports the white defects correction, the black defects cannot be corrected. And, the function
is not necessarily able to correct all the white defects. In addition, due to the effect from the noise or the temperature
conditions, the correction result may not be always the same.
Please be noted that improper command execution such as under no light-blocking, or taking wrong procedure, may
cause incorrect operation of the executed command function or abnormal images.
8.2 How to execute “Defective Pixel Correction”
· Execute “INIT” to return to the factory settings.
· Attach the bundled cap to the lens mount for light-blocking, then wait for about 5 seconds..
· Execute “Defective Pixel Correction” and SAVE.

9. How to Operate the Camera with OCP
Please refer to the “OCP-20” Operational manual.
Overview
IV-Tech developed the universal camera control panel OCP-20 to meet the daily live production requirement. OCP-20 has the full
function including real-time feedback of parameters from camera and lens for paint/shading, support broad range of Sony, Incam
cameras (please inquire the detail mode).
OCP-20 is easily integrates into a live event ecosystem with other system components:
1, As OCP of the Incam camera, for paint control and lens control of focus, iris.
2, Provide a new camera control product for the camera. Build a camera system with fiber unit FPT-48, wireless control unit LCW-20
for any demands.
Feature
· Support the camera and lens parameter with real-time processing, including iris, master pedestal, white balance,
black balance, color temperature, R/B level, gain, shutter, detail level, Gamma, Knee level, Saturation, Matrix, Zoom,
Focus etc.
· Reasonable layout according to the function and usage rate for the control button, knob and other components
· Support wide camera brand, including Sony, GV, Incam etc. (pls consult Incam for detail confirmation).
· Support Tally input/output and relay including red and green Tally, enable control of built-in cue lights of camera,
connected viewfinders and the additional tally light of ENG and EFP camera.
· Save the camera set up in the scene files
· OCP-20 dimension is same as Sony RCP-1500, can install 4 panels in one rack.
Application
· Work with Incam wireless system, control and paint/shade many EFP camera, ENG camcorder, provide the tally
function, it’s a good alternative for the original camera manufacturer control panel.
· Directly connect the Incam micro camera to control the picture quality, can extend the transmission distance by the
FPT-48/SE200, it integrates in to the daily live ecosystem easily, operates with the familiar traditional camera
workflow.
· Support the particular application of camera to solve the bottleneck scene, especially the Steadicam wireless control
and Tally indication.
