Operation
TMC-6700/1000 Series Progressive Scan CCD Digital Color Camera
*See Figure 3 on page 10 for Sync, VD, HD, and VINIT pinout.
3.3 Color Balance Adjustment
3.3.1 White Balance
Internal WB and External WB modes are available either via the rear panel switch or through RS-232
software control. In internal WB mode when the IWB Reset Button is pushed, the TMC-6700/1000
series internally adjusts R and B white balance so that the white object is viewed as white under the
particular light conditions. When external WB mode is set, the external WB-R and WB-B offset are
loaded from RAM. WB-R and WB-B offsets in RAM can be updated by software.
3.3.2 Camera Gain
The TMC-6700/1000 series supports VCA (Voltage Controlled Amplifier) gain control and DSP
(Digital Signal Processing) gain control. DSP gain is supplementary control for users requiring fine
tuning.
3.3.3 Color Matrix
Color matrixing is an operation designed to improve the color rendition and color saturation of the
image. The matrixing corrects the spectral sensitivities of the image sensor for the chromaticities of the
display. This significantly improves the subjective quality of the image, since it allows the tone and
color reproduction to be optimized, which also improves the apparent contrast and sharpness of the
system.

# Connector Type Cable Needed Cable Information
7 RS-232 6-pin female connector CBL-RS232-C9 Connect PC to the camera using
the RS-232C control cable (CBL-
RS232-C9). This cable is a part of
the communication kit (CS-232C).
8 Analog 15-pin High Density
D-sub female connector
CBL-2R-15 If you are using a monitor or frame
grabber that needs Red, Green,
Blue, Vertical Sync, and Horizon-
tal Sync, then use the RGB analog
cable (CBL-2R-15).
9 Digital 15-pin female Airborne
connector
15CL-02 or 15CL-
02-15
Use the Channel Link/TTL adapter
cable (15CL-02) if you are using a
non-Channel Link frame grabber
that needs TTL input. Use the
Direct Channel Link cable (15CL-
02-15) if you are using a Channel
Link frame grabber.
10 Power/Sync 12-pin Hirose male
connector
12P-02S cable or
PD-12P power
supply
Connect a 12V DC power supply
(K25-12V or PD-12) using power
cable 12P-02S* or connect power
supply PD-12P.
