  • Page 3: Features

    • The FCB camera is equipped with a CCD which adopts the all-pixel read-out method for all 330,000 effective picture elements “progressive scan” and the primary color filter, enabling use of square pixels. The adoption of this type of CCD enables the high resolution and high color reproduction of this camera.

  • Page 6: 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.
  • Page 7 Zoom The FCB camera employs an 10× optical zoom lens. Lens specifications: Optical 10×, f = 4.2 to 42 mm (F1.8 to F2.9) The horizontal angle of view is approximately 46 degrees (wide end) to 4.6 degrees (tele end). You can activate the zoom in the following two ways: •...

  • Page 8: White Balance

    White Balance White Balance has the following modes, all of which can be set using VISCA Commands. • Auto White Balance Auto white balance obtains the proper color reproduction by automatically adjusting white balance to ensure a white object always looks white. This function computes the white balance value output using color information from the entire screen.

    MALFUNCTION OR DAMAGE. THIS CONTROL PROTOCOL AND COMMAND LIST SHOULD BE USED WITH CAUTION. 1) VISCA is a protocol which controls consumer camcorders developed by Sony. “VISCA” is a trademark of Sony Corporation. Command List Overview of VISCA In VISCA the device outputting commands, for example, a computer, is called the controller.
  • Page 34 VISCA Communication Specifications VISCA Packet Structure The basic unit of VISCA communication is called a packet. 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 FCB camera assigned address 1 from the controller (address 0) is hexadecimal 81H.
  • Page 35 Responses for Commands and Inquiries ACK message Returned by the FCB camera when it receives a command. No ACK message is returned for inquiries. Completion message Returned by the FCB camera when execution of commands or inquiries is completed. In the case of inquiry commands, it will contain reply data for the inquiry after the 3rd byte of the packet.
