2-1. ALC Mode with SUPER-D2 ON
Super Dynamic2 Function (SUPER-D2)
The important object in a scene is usually placed in the center of the monitor screen. In the SUPER-
D2 mode, more photometric weight is given to the center of the screen (where the important object
is located) than to the edge of the screen (where a bright backlight would most likely be located).
The SUPER-D2 function eliminates interference by strong background lighting which makes the
camera picture dark, such as a spotlight.
1. Move the cursor to ALC and press I(S). The ALC CONT menu appears.
2. Move the cursor to SUPER-D2 and select ON.
3. If you want to adjust the video output level,

that detect the brightness changes start blinking.
6. To raise detection sensitivity, press I(S) to return to the MOTION DETECT menu.
7. To obtain the optimum detection level, move the “I” cursor to adjust the level.
8. Repeat the procedures above to obtain a satisfactory setting.
Notes:
•When the motion detector is enabled, the LEDs on both sides of camera blink.
•Masking or adjusting the detection level is needed to prevent malfunction under the following
conditions:
•When shooting an object under flickering fluorescent light.
•When leaves or curtains etc. are swayed by the wind.
•When the object is lighted by lighting equipment that constantly turns on and off.
•It takes about 0.2 seconds for the alarm signal to reach the alarm terminal of the VTR after the
camera detects the object.
Because the alarm signal is multiplexed on the video signal, it may be mistakenly interpreted
by other video equipment as a time code signal.
Therefore, when the camera is not used in a Panasonic Intelligent CCTV System, select OFF to
prevent the above from occurring.
•The camera will deactivate the detector for a few minutes after the power of the camera is
turned on or the BW setting in the Special Menu is set to something other than OFF.

You can select internal sync (INT) mode, line-lock (LL) mode or the VD2 signal (multiplexed vertical
drive signal) mode.
Important Notices:
1. The priority for the sync modes is as follows:
(1) Multiplexed Vertical Drive (VD2) (Highest priority)
(2) Line-lock (LL)
(3) Internal Sync (INT) (Lowest priority)
2. The line-lock mode has a submenu for line-lock vertical phase adjustment. If the camera instal-
lation is relocated, check the vertical phase adjustment again since the AC line phase may be
different.
6-1. Line-lock Sync Mode (LL)
1. Move the cursor to SYNC and select LL.
Note: The settings in this menu can be made
only when the multiplexed vertical drive
signal (VD2) is not supplied to the camera.
2. After confirming that the cursor is on LL, press
I(S). The vertical phase adjustment menu
appears on the monitor screen.
3. Supply the video output signal of the camera
to be adjusted and the reference camera video
output signal to a dual-trace oscilloscope.
4. Set the oscilloscope to the vertical rate and expand the vertical sync portion on the oscillo-
scope.
5. Move the cursor to COARSE. The cursor is
highlighted.
6. Press I(L) or I(R) to match the vertical
phase for both video output signals as closely
as possible. (COARSE adjustment can be
incremented in 16 steps by 22.5 degrees by
pressing I(L) or I(R).)
Note: After the sixteenth step, the adjustment
returns to the first step.
7. Move the cursor to FINE.
8. Press I(L) or I(R) to match the vertical phase for both video output signals as closely as
possible.
(FINE adjustment can be made by up to 22.5 degrees by pressing I(L) or I(R).)
Notes:
•When the “I” cursor reaches the “+” end, it jumps back to “–”. At the same time, COARSE
is incremented by one step to enable a continuous adjustment. The reverse takes place
when the “I” cursor reaches the “–” end.
•When I(L) or I(R) is kept pressed for a second or more, the “I” cursor moves faster.
•To reset COARSE and FINE to the values preset at the factory, press I(L) and I(R)
simultaneously. COARSE and FINE adjustments are preset at the factory to zero-crossing
of the AC line phase.
•If the AC line contains noise (spike noise, etc.), the stability of the vertical phase of the
camera video output signal may be disturbed.
•The input power source is AC only.
7. White Balance Setting (WHITE BAL)
7-1. Auto-Tracing White Balance Mode (ATW)
You can select one of three modes for white balance adjustment as follows:
The factory default setting is ATW1.
•ATW1 (Auto-Tracing White Balance 1)
Move the cursor to WHITE BAL and select ATW1.
In this mode, the color temperature is monitored continuously and thereby white balance is
automatically set. The color temperature range for the proper white balance is approximately 2
600 - 6 000K. Proper white balance may not be
obtained under the following conditions:
1. The color temperature is out of the 2 600 -
6 000K range.
2. When the scene contains mostly high
color temperature objects, such as a blue
sky or sunset.
3. When the scene is dim.
In these cases, select the AWC mode.
•ATW2 (Auto-Tracing White Balance 2)
Auto-tracing white balance in sodium light mode (ATW2)
When that you select ATW2 for sodium light, white balance is set automatically (no operation
needed).
Note: ATW1 and ATW2 do not appear for WHITE BAL on the system controller setup menu.
•Automatic White Balance Control Mode (AWC)
In this mode, accurate white balance is obtained within a color temperature range of approxi-
mately 2 300-10 000K.
1. Move the cursor to WHITE BAL and select
AWC →PUSH SW.
2. Press I(S) to start the white balance setup.
The PUSH SW is highlighted to indicate that
the white balance is being set.
3. When the white balance setting is completed,
the PUSH SW returns to normal display.
Note: If white balance is not set, the PUSH SW
is being highlighted.
2-2. ALC Mode with SUPER-D2 OFF
1. Move the cursor to SUPER-D2 and select OFF.
The MASK SET appears on the menu.
2. Move the cursor to MASK SET and press
I(S). The 48 mask areas appear on the
monitor screen. The cursor is blinking in the
upper left corner of the screen.
3. Move the cursor to the area where backlight is
bright and press I(S) to mask that area. The
mask turns to white. (When the cursor is
moved on an area that has already been
masked, the mask and cursor start blinking.)
4. Repeat step 3 to mask the desired area. To
cancel masking, move the cursor to that area
and press I(S).
5. After masking is completed, press I(S) for 2
seconds or more. The ALC CONT menu
appears.
6. If you want to change the video output level
(picture contrast), move the “I” cursor for
LEVEL and adjust the level.
Note: If ON is selected for SUPER-D2, a shadow
(black line) may appear at the boundary
between the bright and the dim scene. This is
a natural phenomenon and does not indicate trouble.
3. Shutter Speed Setting (SHUTTER)
Note: To select electronic shutter speed, select OFF for SUPER-D2 in the ALC CONT menu.
Move the cursor to SHUTTER and select the electronic shutter speed.
The preset values for SHUTTER (electronic shutter speed) change by pressing I(L) or I(R) as
follows:
The factory default setting is ---.
Note: When SUPER D2 is set to ON, a dotted line appears for the shutter speed, and you cannot
select it.
4. Gain Control Setting
You can set the gain (brightness level portion of an image) to automatic level adjustment.
Move the cursor to AGC and select automatic level adjustment [AGC ON (LOW, MID, HIGH)/OFF
(fixed level)].
•Gain Control [AGC ON (LOW/ MID/ HIGH)/OFF]
Move the cursor to AGC and select ON (LOW),
ON (MID), ON (HIGH) or OFF.
The factory default setting is ON (HIGH).
Note: Even if AGC is set to ON and if the noise reduction function is enabled, afterimages may
be produced by shooting a moving object.
•Digital Noise Reduction (DNR)
DNR may be used to improve quality under low light conditions. There are 2 levels of DNR,
which may be selected depending on local site conditions.
You may need to try different settings to find
the most suitable conditions for your applica-
tion.
Move the cursor to DNR and select LOW or
HIGH.
LOW: DNR level is low.
HIGH: DNR level is high.
The factory default setting is HIGH.
5. Electronic Sensitivity Enhancement (SENS UP)
There are two modes for SENS UP.
AUTO: If you select X10 AUTO, for example, the sensitivity is automatically raised to X10 max.
When AUTO is selected, AGC is automatically set to ON.
FIX: If you select X32 FIX, for example, the sensitivity is raised to just X32.
The factory default setting is OFF.
Move the cursor to SENS UP and select the parameter for electronic sensitivity enhancement.
