Pin configurations of connectors ( page E12). When the shutter mode is other than “RANDOM” “EEI” ( page E34, SHUTTER item) ● In response to the trigger input, the KY-F1030 outputs a flash signal for the CCD accumulation period of the next frame.
4. Shooting a computer monitor screen (cont’d) White spot compensation One of the inherent, general characteristics of CCDs is that white spots may appear in the image at slow shutter speeds or during shooting at high temperatures. To moderate this phenomenon, this camera is provided with a white spot compensation function. In the digital output mode, white spot adjustment should be performed using the special application software [KY-LINK].

6. Others About ALC and EEI operations Specifications ALC stands for Automatic Level Control and EEI for Extended Electronic Iris. ( page E34) By making the respective settings, the Automatic Level Control (ALC) will operate under dark lighting, and the electronic shutter (EEI) will operate under bright lighting. Furthermore, setting the IRIS mode to AUTO will synchronize sensitivity, iris and electronic shutter so that an appropriate signal level can be acquired automatically at all times.
