· It may be necessary to upgrade the version of the controllers other than AW-RP150 in order to support the unit. For details on upgrading, visit the support page on the following website. https://pro-av.panasonic.net/ The maximum distances between the units and controller is 1000 meters (3280 ft). (when serial control is exercised) Use of an external device or some other means must be provided separately in order to extend the video signal connections. Easy construction of systems thanks to integrated design used for pantilt head, camera and lens · By integrating the camera, lens and pan-tilt head into a single unit, it is now easier to construct systems. Use of easytooperate wireless remote control (optional accessory) is possible · A wireless remote control capable of operating up to four units can be used. It can easily be used to set the various functions or switch between them while viewing the menu screens. Flexible camera layout enabled by simple connection and installation · This unit features excellent connectivity and installability thanks to the IP control; a lightweight main unit, and the turn-lock mechanism, which enables the user to install it on his or her own (only when used indoors). · Bear in mind that this unit is designed to be used indoors only: It cannot be used outdoors. While including a larger 4K lens and pan/ tilt mechanism, the unit still has the same installation footprint as previous models. · The unit maintains the compact installation footprint of previous models. Easy connections and settings courtesy of IP control · Up to two hundred units can be operated by IP connection from a Panasonic controller (AW-RP150). (The maximum length of the LAN cables is 100 meters (328 ft).) · Network connection with AW-RP150 requires setup of an initial account. ( page 29) When an initial account is not set up, AW-RP150 can detect but cannot control this unit. PoE++ *3 eliminates need for camera power configurations · Configurations for camera’s power supply are not necessary when the unit is connected to a network device that supports the PoE++ standard (IEEE 802.3bt compliant)*4. Software authentication (LLDP) is also supported, but it may be necessary to make settings on the network device (IEEE P802.3bt compliant)*4. · If the external DC power supply and a PoE++ power supply are connected simultaneously, the external DC power supply will have priority. If the external DC power supply is disconnected while both power supplies are connected, the unit will restart automatically, and the image will be interrupted. · Use a Category 5e cable or higher when using a PoE++ power supply. The maximum length of the cable between the power supply unit and the unit is 100 meters (328 ft). Using a cable that is lower than Category 5e may result in reduced power supply capabilities. *3 Power over Ethernet Plus Plus.

Operating precautions

Do not use the unit in oilysmoky or dusty
places.
Performance may be adversely affected if small particles or other
foreign objects get inside the product.
Take extra care in environments where a special effect such as
theatrical smoke is used.

Shoot under the proper lighting conditions.
To produce pictures with eye-pleasing colors, shoot under the
proper lighting conditions.
The pictures may not appear with their proper colors when shooting
under fluorescent lights. Select the proper lighting as required.

To ensure a stable performance in the long
term
Using the unit for prolonged periods in locations where the temperature and humidity levels are high will cause its parts to deteriorate, resulting in a reduction of its service life. (Recommended temperature: Max. 35 °C (95 °F)) Ensure that a cooling unit or heating unit will not blow any air directly toward the installation location.

Do not point the camera at
strong lights.
When parts of the MOS sensor are
exposed to spotlights or other strong
lights, blooming (a phenomenon where
the edges of strong lights become
blurred) may occur.

Bright subject

Blooming

What happens with high-brightness subjects
Flare may occur if an extremely bright light source is pointed at the lens. In a case like this, change the angle or take some other remedial action.
When using the automatic functions
· In the [Scene] such as the camera menu, the initial settings on some items has been set to auto, making it impossible for these items to be operated manually. To operate them manually, switch from the auto settings to the manual settings as required.
· When using the ATW (auto tracking white adjustment) function under fluorescent lights, the white balance may vary.
· In some situations, it may be hard to focus at the auto setting. In cases like this, select the manual setting, and focus manually.
Zooming and focusing
When the focus is set manually, out-of-focusing may occur during zooming. After zooming, if necessary, either adjust the focus or set the focus to auto. When using the focus at the manual setting, proceed with zooming after setting the focus position at the Tele end where the focusing accuracy is higher. (However, if the distance from the unit to the subject is less than 1.5 meters (4.92 ft), the subject may shift out of focus at the Wide end.) If zooming is performed to the Tele end after having adjusted the focus at the Wide end, out-of-focusing may occur.

15.DC IN connector <12 V IN> (XLR connector)
Input 12 V DC. · Use a DC cable with the following lengths.
For 12 V input: Max. 3 m (9.84 ft) (when using an AWG16 cable)
External DC power supply Connect after making sure that the output voltage of the external DC power supply is compatible with the rated voltage of the camera. Select an output amperage for the external DC power supply with a margin above the total amperage of the connected devices. The total amperage of connected devices can be calculated with the following formula.
Total power consumption ÷ voltage When the power of the camera is turned on, inrush current is generated. Insufficient power supply when turning on the power may cause a malfunction. We recommend that you use an external DC power supply that can assure double the capacity of the total power consumption of the camera and connected devices that are turned on by interlock when the power of the camera is turned on (such as lenses, wireless microphone receivers).

· Make sure of the pin alignment of the DC output terminal of the external DC power supply and the camera DC IN connector, and connect the polarity correctly. If the +12 V power supply is mistakenly connected to the GND terminal, it may cause fire or malfunction.

Each time this is pressed for 2 seconds, operation switches between displaying the unit’s camera menu and exiting the camera menu. When it is pressed quickly (for less than 2 seconds) while a camera menu is displayed, the setting change is canceled. Furthermore, the pan and tilt movement range limits (limiters) are set and released by operating the button, <PRESET/LIMIT> button and the pan/tilt buttons (<4> <5> ). For details, refer to “Setting/releasing the limiters” ( page 157). · It is not possible to switch the 12G SDI/OPTICAL, 3G SDI, HDMI
output camera menu displays in the factory settings. Switch the setting to [On] with the camera menu. ( page 67)

4. CAM1 to CAM4 buttons
Selects a camera to be operated. Once a button has been selected, the unit corresponding to the selected button can be operated.
5. SET button
If this button is held down for 2 seconds when the [AWB A] memory or [AWB B] memory has been selected for the white balance adjustment, the black balance is adjusted automatically and registered in the memory selected. When this button is pressed for under 2 seconds, only the white balance is adjusted automatically.
6. MODE button
This is used to select the video signals which are output from the unit. Each time it is pressed, the signals are switched between the color bar signals and camera video signals. · When [Audio] is set to [On] and the color bar is displayed, a test
sound (1 kHz) is output. Be cautious of the volume on external devices.
7. GAIN button
These are used to set the gain. The gain increase can be set in three steps using the , and buttons. is set to 9 dB, and is set to 18 dB. When the button is pressed, the AGC function is activated, and the gain is adjusted automatically depending on the light quantity. The maximum gain of the AGC function can be set using the camera menu.
8. Preset memory call buttons <1> to <12>
These are used to call the information on the unit’s directions and other settings, which have been registered in the unit’s preset memories No.1 to No.12, and reproduce those settings. Settings in preset memories No.13 and above cannot be called from the wireless remote control.
9. PRESET/LIMIT button <PRESET/LIMIT>
This is used to register the settings in the preset memories or set or release the limiters. When a preset memory call button is pressed while the <PRESET/ LIMIT> button is held down, the information on the unit’s current direction and other settings is registered in the call button.

Adjust the ratio between the three primary colors (RGB) to reproduce white accurately. If the white balance is out of adjustment, not only will white be reproduced poorly, but the color tones of the screen as a whole will also be degraded.
· Perform adjustment when using the unit for the first time or when the unit has not been used for a prolonged period.
· Perform adjustment when the lighting conditions or brightness changes.
Either “AWB” (automatic white balance adjustment) which initiates automatic adjustment when the button on the controller has been pressed or “ATW” (automatic tracking white balance adjustment) which constantly adjusts the white balance can be selected for adjustment purposes.
The results of the AWB adjustment can be stored in two memories, A and B, when [AWB A] or [AWB B] has been selected for the white balance.
· Once the white balance values have been adjusted, their setup procedure will be completed simply by selecting them using the camera menus or Web setup screen [Setup], or by pressing the buttons on the controller, provided that they are going to be used under the same conditions as the ones established when the values were set. There is no need to set it again.
· Once a new setting is entered, the previous setting will be erased. · White balance adjustment is not possible in night mode. · The white balance cannot be adjusted during preset playback.
Use the two memories to store settings corresponding to different shooting conditions.

· After adjusting the white balance, and [Serial] or [IP] of [Tracking Data Output] is set to [On], the tracking data output may be delayed or the value may not be updated. ( page 61)

Automatic adjustment (AWB: AWB A or AWB B)
When performing operations from a wireless remote control

1. Shoot a white subject (such as a white wall or
handkerchief) so that it fills the screen. · Do not shoot shiny or very bright objects.

· Steps 2 through 8 represent the procedure for selecting the [AWB A] or [AWB B] memory. They need not be taken if a selection has already been made.

2. Select [Scene1], [Scene2], [Scene3] or [Scene4] as the shooting mode by following the procedure in “Selecting the shooting modes (scene files)” ( page 33).

3200K and 5600K presets
When [3200K] or [5600K] is selected for the white balance, the white balance is set using a color temperature of 3200 K (equivalent to halogen light) or 5600 K (equivalent to daylight), respectively. This function works when [3200K] or [5600K] is selected instead of [AWB A] or [AWB B] by following the steps for “Automatic adjustment” in “White balance adjustment” ( page 39).
VAR
When [VAR] is selected for the white balance, you can select a color temperature between 2000K and 15000K.

· The displayed [VAR] value does not guarantee an absolute value. Use the value as a reference. · The black balance is set at the same time. When this takes place, the lens is closed and then the adjustment is performed so the screen will temporarily turn black. When only the auto white balance adjustment (AWB) is to be performed, ensure that the button is pressed or held down for a period of time which does not exceed 2 seconds. · Adjustment cannot be performed while the color bar is displayed. Switch to the camera image by pressing the button. · The white balance cannot be adjusted during preset playback. · When the adjustment has failed, an error message such as “OUT RANGE NG”, “HIGH LIGHT NG”, “LOW LIGHT NG” or “ATW NG” is displayed. When performing operations from a controller When using an AWRP150 For details, refer to the operating instructions for the controller. · White balance may not be correctly set if the lighting of the object is too weak. · Since the unit has a built-in memory, the set white balance will remain in the memory even if power is turned off. Therefore, it is not necessary to reset the white balance if the color temperature of those objects remains unchanged. However, it must be reset if the color temperature changes, such as when you move from indoors to outside, or vice versa. Auto tracking white adjustment (ATW) When the white balance adjustment is set to [ATW], the white balance continues to be adjusted automatically all the time, and it is automatically corrected even when the light source or color temperature has changed to produce completely natural pictures. This function works when [ATW] is selected instead of [AWB A] or [AWB B] by following the steps for “Automatic adjustment” in “White balance adjustment” ( page 39). · ATW might not function properly when high brightness light (ex. fluorescent lamp) beams into a screen. · White balance may not be accurately set if there is no white object in the scene being shot. · The white balance may shift out of adjustment when different kinds of light sources such as sunlight and fluorescent lighting are applied. 40

Black balance adjustment
Adjust the zero levels of the three primary colors (RGB) to reproduce black accurately. If the black balance is out of adjustment, not only will black be reproduced poorly, but the color tones of the screen as a whole will also be degraded. Readjustment of the black balance is not required under normal circumstances but is necessary in the following situations.
· Perform adjustment when using the unit for the first time or when the unit has not been used for a prolonged period.
· Perform adjustment when the ambient temperature changes significantly, such as during changes of the season.

· After adjusting the black balance, and [Serial] or [IP] of [Tracking Data Output] is set to [On], the tracking data output may be delayed or the value may not be updated. ( page 61)

When performing operations from a controller
When using an AWRP150 For details, refer to the operating instructions for the controller.

Automatic adjustment
When performing operations from a wireless remote control
The procedure is identical to that of “Automatic adjustment” ( page 39) in “White balance adjustment”. The black balance can be configured by performing automatic white balance adjustment (AWB) and automatic black balance adjustment (ABB).
· The white balance will also be configured, so be sure to prepare the conditions for white balance adjustment before performing the procedure.
· Adjustment cannot be performed while the color bar is displayed. Switch to the camera image by pressing the button.
· The black balance cannot be adjusted during preset playback.
