(Ref er to the table below .) When the trigger pulse width is 1/3 sec or more, the output signal is s witched to a nor mal video signal.
9 XC-E series A B T A: 4 to 5.0 V B: 0 to 1.0 V T: 2 µ s to 1/4 s ELECTR ONIC SHUTTER • Using trigger pulse width • Set DIP switches 1 to 4 on the rear panel to 0. • An arbitrary shutter speed can be obtained by setting the trigger pulse width to the range of 2 µ sec to 250 msec.
10 XC-E series ELECTR ONIC SHUTTER When using a trigger pulse like shown belo w , set the TRIG polarity selector switch on the rear panel to – : * Input impedance: 10 k Ω or more * The voltage and pulse width used are measured at pin 11 of a 12-pin m ulti-connector on the rear panel.
11 XC-E series REST AR T RESET (R.R) The inf or mation on one screen can be extr acted at any time by inputting a restart/reset signal (HD/VD) from the outside. T o enter this mode, set DIP s witches 6, 7, and 8 on the rear panel of a camera as shown in the tab le below .
