Select “Indoor scene(50 Hz)” or“Indoor scene(60 Hz)” in accordance with the power supply frequency in your locality. Refer to theOperating Instructions (included in the CD-ROM) for further information about the setting.Under extremely strong lighting, flickering may happen even when “Indoor scene” is selected for“Light control mode”. When the brightness (illuminance) level on the screen is set to a relatively lowlevel with the [Brightness] buttons, flickering may frequently happen. In such cases, either of the fol-lowing can reduce flickering.Moderate the illumination intensities of objects by changing the camera direction.Set the brightness (illuminance) level on the screen to a brighter level with the [Brightness] but-tons.White-out on images caused by the effect of light control modeWhen “Indoor scene” is selected for “Light control mode”, the tone of the brighter parts on thescreen may be deteriorated than the case when “ELC” is selected.Color blurring on detailed drawing patternsWhen there are detailed drawing patterns on images, color blurring may happen over these parts.Consumable partsThe following are consumables: Replace them in accordance with their lives. Their lives varydepending on use environment and conditions. Lifetime is just an indication when using the cameraat +20 °C {68 °F}.Panning motor, tilting motor, flat cable for tilting: Approx. 0.12 million operations.Lens and pan/tilt headIf a lens and pan/tilt head are not performed for a long period of time, the grease coating insidethese parts may become sticky. That may obstruct the parts from moving. To prevent this, movethe lens or pan/tilt head periodically.Screw A (1 pc.) Screw B (1 pc.) Screw C (2 pcs.) Washer S (2 pcs.)Washer M (1 pc.)
