Default : 67
○DC iris lens adjustment procedures
When mounting the DC iris lens, adjust the lens apperture according to the following procedures.
The procedures for adjusting the DC iris lens is as follows.
(1) Mount the DC iris lens to the 1200CS
(2) Set the OSD settings as follows;
· Set 『3.3 Lens setting (LENS)』settings to DC
· Set 『3.4 Shutter / gain setting (SHUTTER / AGC)』settings to AUTO.
· Set 『3.4.1.1 Shutter speed (SHUT)』settings to DC IRIS.
(3) When hunting occurs in which the screen continually brightens or darkens in the actual
imaging environment, proceed to step(4). When you get the image properly, please proceed to step(5).
OK (4) When hunting occurs, the control speed of the lens aperture might be too fast, reduce
the set value of 『3.3.1.2 auto iris lens aperture control speed (SPEED)』until the hunting stops.

3.4 Shutter/Gain Settings(SHUTTER/AGC)
Set the exposure control. There are two modes of exposure control: the automatic exposure control (AUTO) and the manual exposure control (MANUAL).
When AUTO is selected, shutter speed and gain are automatically controlled according to the imaging environment. When MANUAL is selected, shutter
speed and gain can be set to arbitrary fixed values. Move the cursor to SHUTTER/AGC with UP/DOWN and use the LEFT/RIGHT to select AUTO or
MANUAL. After selecting the mode, press ENTER to open each advanced setting sub menu.
