Installation
Be sure to place the main unit on a flat surface.
If you have a personal
computer or audio/video
equipment with the
S-Video input
You can connect it to your Color Video Camera
with a commercially available S-video cable.
Notes
• You cannot connect your Color Video Camera to a
personal computer that is not equipped with either audio/
video input or S-Video input jack. And you might not be
able to use your existing personal computer with your
Color Video Camera unless you provide the computer
with a video capture board, sound board, and/or
software. Consult your computer dealer or manufacturer
for details.
Secure the camera in place with the supplied Velcro
tape.
• Use only the AC-EV2 (for EVI-D30)/AC-EV3 (for EVI-
D31) AC power adaptor (supplied). Do not use any other
AC power adaptor.
Polarity of the plug
• Do not grasp the camera head when carrying the video
camera.
• Do not turn the camera head manually. Doing so will
result in the camera malfunctioning.
If you operate more than one camera
with the remote commander
Notice the CAMERA NO. switch at the rear of the
main unit. Set the CAMERA NO. switch to the

— MD (Motion Detector) function
If the position of the camera is fixed, you can set the
camera to detect a change taking place in a picture.
When the camera detects a change taking place in
the picture, the frame appears, showing the portion
in which the change takes place, and the lamp at the
side of the lens lights up red. (At that time, the
detection signal is output from the VISCA IN.)
You can specify up to two portions in which the
change is detected, by using the two frames
(FRAME 1 and FRAME 2) that you can change in
position and size as desired.
If you have selected the ENTRY 3, the frame
flashes for about 5 seconds after the START/STOP
button is pressed. Within that period, repeat
changing the angle of the subject so that the camera
recognizes the various brightness of the subject.
Notes
• If you use the ENTRY 2 or 4 mode for a subject that can
be recognized even in the ENTRY 1 mode, the subject
might be hardly recognized. This is because the color
and brightness the camera can recognize are limited in
the ENTRY 2 and 4 modes.
• Even if you try changing the ENTRY mode, a subject
still might not be recognized depending on its
characteristics. In such a case, try changing the subject
to the one whose color is more bright or the one whose
color is different from that of its backdrop, or changing
the lighting.
• There might be a case in which the AT function will not

Fine-tuning the settings
The MD function works in the following manner:
the camera memorizes a picture of a certain
moment as the “reference picture,” and compares
the current picture with the reference picture to
detect whether or not a change takes place.
Although the camera is factory-set to refresh a
reference picture after a certain period of time, you
can change the timing when a reference picture is
refreshed or can set the camera not to refresh the
reference picture, according to conditions under
which the camera is used.

however, the battery is gradually discharged. Besides, if
you do not use the unit at all for almost 12 weeks, the
battery is completely discharged. To retain the
memories of the settings, you should recharge the
battery.
