Features The 1/2.8 type Exmor CMOS camera (utilising approximately 2 million valid pixels) allows for highdefinition shooting with superior picture quality. Adopts the zoom lens capable of shooting a wide range of 71 degree horizontal angle of view with the 12x optical zoom. By adopting its wide and dynamic range functions, you can see the optimised shooting image which incorporates bright and dark subjects at the same time.
Connection HDMI cable (not supplied) to HDMI VIDEO to HDMI input VISCA cable (not supplied) 1) to VISCA RS-232 IN to RS-232 to VISCA RS-232 OUT To VISCA IN of other SRG series (when connecting to more than one camera) LAN cable (not supplied) 2) to LAN to LAN Computer with LAN or serial communication interface, HD video monitor with HDMI input interface, etc.
System Configuration The SRG-120DH has various system configuration capabilities using optional products. This section describes three typical system examples with the required components and the main usage of each system.
System Configuration Operating a SRG-120DH Using the RM-IP10 IP Remote Controller This system allows you: To perform pan/tilt and zoom operations using the joystick of the IP remote controller, and to perform the Preset operation using the button.
Locations of Controls Camera Front Rear Lens This is a 12-magnification optical zoom lens. Infrared remote commander sensors These are sensors for the supplied infrared remote commander. POWER lamp Lights in green when the camera is connected to an AC outlet using the supplied AC power adaptor and AC power cord. Flashes in green when the camera receives an operation command from the supplied infrared remote commander.
Locations of Controls VISCA OUT connector When you connect multiple cameras, connect it to the VISCA IN connector of the next camera in the daisy chain connection. Bottom LAN connector (RJ-45 8-pin) Connect to a switching HUB that is compatible with 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX using a LAN cable (category 5 or higher, shielded twisted pair). When a link is established, the green indicator lights, and it flashes during communication. While connected with 100BASE-TX, the yellow indicator also lights.

Basic Functions Basic Functions Overview of Functions Zoom The SRG camera employs a 12× optical zoom lens combined with a digital zoom function; this camera allows you to zoom up to 144×. • Optical 12×, f = 3.9 mm to 46.8 mm (F 1.8 to F 2.0) Digital Zoom enlarges the center of the subject by expanding each image in both the vertical and horizontal directions. When the digital zoom is used, the resolution deteriorates.
Basic Functions • Manual Focus Mode Manual Focus has both a Standard Mode and a Variable Mode. Standard Mode focuses at a fixed rate of speed. Variable Mode has eight speed levels that can be set using a VISCA Command. In these standard and variable modes, it is necessary to send Stop Command to stop the zoom operation. Automatic Exposure Mode A variety of AE functions are available for optimal output of subjects in lighting conditions that range from low to high.

Basic Functions Wide Dynamic Range Mode (WD) Exposure Compensation The Wide Dynamic Range mode is a function for dividing an image into several blocks and correcting blocked-up shadows and blown-out highlights in accordance with the intensity difference. It enables you to obtain images in which portions ranging from dark to light can be recognized, even when capturing a subject with a large intensity difference that is backlit or includes extremely light portions.
Basic Functions High Sensitivity Mode Camera ID In this mode, higher sensitivity gain is applied as standard gain increases, reaching a gain level at MAX gain of up to 4x the standard gain. In such cases, however, there will be a high volume noise in the image. The ID can be set up to 65,536 (0000 to FFFF). As this will be memorized in the nonvolatile memory inside, data will be saved. Gamma Mode It consists of the following functions. • Neg.
Basic Functions I/F Clear Clears the Command buffer of the camera. The buffer is cleared even during the power on state using the control software. Address Set VISCA is a protocol, which supports a daisy chain of up to seven connected cameras via RS-232 interface. In such cases, the address set command can be used to assign addresses from 1 to 7 to each of the seven cameras, allowing you to control the seven cameras with the same personal computer.
Basic Functions Initial Settings and Preset • The initial values are the factory settings. • When the power is turned on, this unit starts operation with the settings stored in preset1. • In “Preset 1 to 16”, the items that are preserved even after the power is turned off are indicated by a circle (), and the items that are not preserved are indicated by a cross ().

Command List VISCA1) RS-232 Commands Use of RS-232 control software based upon this command list may cause malfunction or damage to hardware and software. Sony Corporation is not liable for any such damage. Overview of VISCA In VISCA, the device outputting the commands, for example, a computer, is called the controller, while the device receiving the commands, such as this unit, is called the peripheral device.
Command List VISCA Communication Specifications VISCA packet structure The basic unit of VISCA communication is called a packet (Fig. 2). The first byte of the packet is called the header and comprises the sender’s and receiver’s addresses. For example, the header of the packet sent to the SRG assigned address 1 from the controller (address 0) is 81h in hexadecimal. The packet sent to the SRG assigned address 2 is 82h. In the command list, as the header is 8X, input the address of the SRG to X.
Command List Timing Chart Responses for commands and inquiries If two or more commands are to be sent successively, wait for a reply command (an Acknowledge or error message for a general command, and an inquiry packet for an inquiry command) of the previous command to be received before sending the next command. Controller Acknowledge message A message returned by this unit when it receives a command. No Acknowledge message is returned for an inquiry, cancel, or device setting command.
Command List Socket number This unit has two sets of sockets (buffers) for commands, so that up to two commands including the commands currently being executed can be received. When this unit receives commands, it notifies the sender which socket was used, using the socket number of the Acknowledge message. As each of the completion message and error message also has a socket number, you can identify which command has ended.
Command List VISCA interface and inquiry CAM_VersionInq Returns information on the VISCA interface.

Command List VISCA over IP VISCA Equipment VISCA Controller Overview of VISCA over IP VISCA over IP allows you to control this unit from the controller with the IP communication function via the LAN by using VISCA. You can connect up to 5 controllers simultaneously on the network.
Command List VISCA command This is a command from the controller to the peripheral device. When the peripheral device receives this command, Acknowledge is returned. After completing command processing, a completion notice is returned. This command uses the socket of VISCA. The order of completion notices may be changed if the multiple commands are sent to the same peripheral device. VISCA inquiry This is an inquiry from the controller to the peripheral device.
Command List Payload type Stores the value (Byte 0 and Byte 1) of the following table on the payload division. Name VISCA command VISCA inquiry VISCA reply Value (Byte 0) 01h 01h 01h Value (Byte 1) 00h 10h 11h VISCA device setting command Control command Control reply 01h 20h Description Stores the VISCA command. Stores the VISCA inquiry. Stores the reply for the VISCA command and VISCA inquiry, or VISCA device setting command. Stores the VISCA device setting command.
Command List If time out occurs on the controller, you can infer the lost message and state of the peripheral device by retransmitting the message using the same sequence number. The following table shows the received message and status by retransmission of the lost message, and the reference of correspondence after retransmission for each case. (Except for the case that a time out occurs for reasons other than loss of message.
