Safety Precautions Due to design modifications, data given in this instruction book are subject to possible change without prior notice. Thank you for purchasing this product. (These instructions are for TK-C1430E and TK-C1431EG) Before beginning to operate this unit, please read the instruction manual carefully in order to make sure that the best possible performance is obtained. CONTENTS WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
INTRODUCTION Operating Precautions Features A DSP (Digital Signal Processor) features a Extended Dynamic Range (ExDR) and enables to shoot both bright and dark locations. The use of a CCD with a SENSE UP (X32) function realized the minimum luminous flux density for subject of 0.9 lx (F1.2, 50%, AGC 20dB) and 0.03 lx (at SENSE UP (X32)). Furthermore, we realized 0.03 lx (F1.2, 50% AGC 20dB) thanks to the function of B/W mode.

Control by Black-White/Colour switching signal from the outside Carry out the following setting when you link in motion the black-white/colour switching of this unit and infrared illumination, etc., using the switching signal from the outside control device. Infrared illumination, etc.
OTHERS White spot compensation Specifications CCDs have the general characteristic that white spots appear on the screen when the CCD is operated at high temperatures or when they are used with a slow shutter speed. This unit has a built-in white spot compensation function to reduce these white spots. (The number and the size of the white spots changes according to the use temperature, the shutter speed, etc. Furthermore, there is a limit on the number of white spots that can be compensated.
