Overview Features • The Ex-View HADTM CCD features 380,000 (NTSC) or 440,000 (PAL) effective picture elements and high-sensitivity shooting. The minimum illumination required is 0.01 lx. • 18× optical zoom. • Supports external synchronization (V-lock). • Adopts a newly developed DSP for improved picture quality when using the digital zoom. • VISCA is a communications protocol, which enables the camera to be controlled remotely by commands from a host computer/controller.
Overview Precautions Software Other Use of the demonstration software developed by Sony Corporation or use of the software with customer developed application software may damage hardware, the application program or the camera. Sony Corporation is not liable for any damages under these conditions. Do not apply excessive voltage. (Use only the specified voltage.) Otherwise, you may get an electric shock or a fire may occur.
Locations of Controls Front Left side Bottom Rear 1 Lens 2 CN992 connector 3 TELE button 4 WIDE button 5 Tripod screw holes When a tripod is used, please use 10 mm (13/32 in.) screws to attach it to the camera. Also, please be sure to attach the tripod securely.
Basic Functions Basic Functions Overview of Functions VISCA commands are the basis of camera control. Timing Chart As VISCA Command processing can only be carried out one time in a Vertical cycle, it takes the maximum 1V cycle time for an ACK/Completion to be returned. If the Command ACK/Completion communication time can be cut shorter than the1V cycle time, then every 1V cycle can receive a Command. General Commands Command RxD ACK Completion TxD Within 16.7msec(20msec*PAL) Query Commands Within 16.
Basic Functions Zoom The FCB camera employs an 18× optical zoom lens combined with a digital zoom function allowing you to zoom up to 216×. Lens specifications: Optical 18×, f = 4.1 to 73.8 mm (F1.4 to F3.0) The horizontal angle of view is approximately 48 degrees (wide end) to 2.8 degrees (tele end). Digital Zoom enlarges the center of the subject by expanding each image in both the vertical and horizontal directions.
Basic Functions • Near Limit Mode Can be set in a range from 1000 (∞) to C000 (10 mm). The focus range is narrowed by excluding the unnecessary range. When the shutter speed 1/1 s or 1/2 s is used, Auto Focus and White Balance may not function fully. Automatic Exposure Mode AE – Iris Priority The iris can be set freely by the user to 18 steps between F1.4 and Close. The gain and shutter speed are set automatically according to the brightness of the subject.
Basic Functions AE – Bright The bright control function adjusts both the gain and iris using an internal algorithm according to a brightness level freely set by the user. Exposure is controlled by gain when dark and by iris when bright. As both gain and iris are fixed, this mode is used when exposing at a fixed camera sensitivity. When switching from Full Auto or Shutter Priority Mode to Bright Mode, the current status will be retained for a short period of time.
Basic Functions Exposure Compensation Others Exposure compensation is a function which offsets the internal reference brightness level used in the AE mode by steps of 1.5 dB. Mirror Image This function reverses the video output from the camera horizontally. Data Step Setting value 0E 7 10.5 dB 0D 6 9 dB 0C 5 7.5 dB 0B 4 6 dB 0A 3 4.5 dB 09 2 3 dB 08 1 1.5 dB 07 0 0 dB 06 –1 –1.5 dB 05 –2 –3 dB 04 –3 –4.5 dB 03 –4 –6 dB 02 –5 –7.5 dB 01 –6 –9 dB 00 –7 –10.
Basic Functions Title Display Synchronization Methods The FCB camera can be given a title containing up to 20 characters such as “ENTRANCE” or “LOBBY”. The position of the first character (horizontal, vertical) of the title, blinking state, and color can also be changed. Internal and external synchronization are available; VISCA Commands allow you to switch between them.
Basic Functions Privacy Zone Function Features Privacy Zone masking protects private objects and areas such as house windows, entrances, and exits which are within the camera’s range of vision but not subject to surveillance. Privacy zone masking can be masked on the monitor to protect privacy. • Mask can be set on up to 24 places according to Pan/ Tilt positions. • Mask can be displayed on 8 places per screen simultaneously. • Privacy Zones are displayed according to priority in alphabetical order.

Comments: To set the mask, first display the object at the center of the screen.
Basic Functions Grid Alarm Function Use the grid displayed on the screen to set mask positions (see the figure below). This function instructs the camera to detect movement within the monitoring area and then send an alarm signal automatically. A High level signal is output when camera detects movement inside the monitoring area. A Low level signal is output when object stops moving.

Command List Command List VISCA1)/RS-232C Commands This Manual outlines an RS-232C control protocol and command list for certain Sony cameras from which control software can be developed. THIS CONTROL PROTOCOL AND COMMAND LIST IS PROVIDED BY SONY ON AN “AS-IS BASIS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
Command List VISCA Communication Specifications assigned address 2 is 82H. In the command list, as the header is 8X, input the address of the camera at X. The header of the reply packet from the camera assigned address 1 is 90H. The packet from the camera assigned address 2 is A0H. Some of the commands for setting cameras can be sent to all devices at one time (broadcast). In the case of broadcast, the header should be hexadecimal 88H. When the terminator is FFH, it signifies the end of the packet.
Command List Responses for Commands and Inquiries Command Execution Cancel ● ACK message Returned by the FCB camera when it receives a command. No ACK message is returned for inquiries. To cancel a command which has already been sent, send the Cancel command as the next command. To cancel one of any two commands which have been sent, use the cancel message. ● Completion message Returned by the FCB camera when execution of commands or inquiries is completed.
