AW‑HE50SN as the “AW‑HE50S” and model numbers
AW‑HE50HN and AW‑HE50SN will be referred to
together as the “AW‑HE50”.
pw In addition to its optical 18 zoom lens, the unit comes
with a 10 digital zoom to achieve high‑quality shooting
that overflows with ambiance.
Similarly, the model number AW‑RP655N is referred as
the “AW‑RP655”, the AW‑RP555N as the “AW‑RP555”

White balance adjustment
wwWhite balance adjustment
In order for the white to be reproduced accurately, the ratio
between the three primary colors (RGB) is adjusted. If the
white balance has shifted out of adjustment, not only will the
white be reproduced poorly but the color tones of the entire
screen will also be degraded.
qwAutomatic adjustment
(AWB: AWB A or AWB B)
1
Shoot a white subject (such as a white wall or
handkerchief) so that it fills the screen.
pw This adjustment must be performed when using the
unit for the first time or when the unit has not been
used for a prolonged period.
pw Do not shoot shiny or very bright objects.
pw It must be performed when the lighting conditions or
brightness has changed.
When performing the operations
using the wireless remote control
Either AWB (automatic white balance adjustment) which
initiates automatic adjustment when the AWB 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.
pw 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.
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.
2
Select Manual1, Manual2 or Manual3 as the
shooting mode by following the procedure in
“Selecting the shooting modes (scene files)
(page 10).
pw Once the white balance has been adjusted when the
unit is used with the same settings and under the same
conditions, its setting is completed simply by selecting a
menu setting or pressing a button on the controller.
There is no need to set it again.

qwAuto 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.
Refer to the Operating Instructions of the controller.
Notes
pw White balance may not be correctly set if the lighting
of the object is too weak.
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 22).
pw 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.
Notes
pw ATW might not function properly when high brightness
light (ex. fluorescent lamp) beams into a screen.
pw White balance may not be accurately set if there is no
white object in the scene being shot.
pw The white balance may shift out of adjustment when
a different kind of light source such as sunlight or
fluorescent lighting applies.

In this mode, the white balance is
compensated for automatically, even if
changes occur in the light source or color
temperature, by a process of continuous and
automatic adjustment.
Set here is the DRS function which provides just the right
amount of compensation when images with significant
light/dark differences are displayed.
When “Low” or “High” is selected, the effect is enhanced
even more.
AWB A, When AWB A or AWB B is selected and the
AWB B white balance is executed, the adjustment

Note
Gamma Level [Low, Mid, High]
pw When preset settings have been called from the

This item is used to adjust the gamma compensation
level. The selected setting takes effect when “Off” is
selected as the “DRS” item setting or when “Normal” is
selected as the “Gamma Type” setting.
When “Low” is set, the images appear sedate and
composed. The resulting gamma curve has a gentle
gradient in the low‑brightness areas, and the contrast is
sharper.
Detail [Off, Low, High]
The image detail (image sharpness) is adjusted here.
When “Low” or “High” is selected, the detail is enhanced.
Conversely, when “High” is set, the tonal range in the dark
area is expanded so that the images take on a lighter
tone. The resulting gamma curve has a sharp gradient in
the low‑brightness areas, and the contrast is softer.
Flesh Tone Mode [Off, Low, High]
Set here is the flesh tone mode for displaying the
subjects’ skin so that it appears more smoothly and
eye‑pleasingly.
When “Low” or “High” is selected, the effect is enhanced
even more.
Back Light COMP. [Off, On]
“On” or “Off” is set here for the backlight compensation
function.
Under backlight conditions, the function prevents
darkening as a result of light striking the backs of
subjects, and makes it possible to shoot images in shade
or shadow more brightly.
Color Matrix [Normal, EBU, NTSC]
This item is used to load the preset color matrix data and
compensate for the saturation and color phase.
This item can be set when “Auto” has been selected as

Limiters
This unit comes with settings (referred to as “limiters”) that
restrict the panning and tilting movement ranges.
Depending on where the unit has been installed, a subject
which the user does not wish to be shot may be present in
the movement ranges.
In a case like this, the unit’s shooting range can be limited
by setting the limiters at the positions just before the subject
which the user does not wish to be shot.
The positions of four limiters — namely, the upper, lower,
left‑most and right‑most limits of the travel range — can be
set.
Once they have been set, the positions will not be lost even
after the power has been turned off.
The limiters can be set or released both by the wireless
remote control and controller or web setting screen.
Whatever was set or released last takes precedence.
For the controller operations, refer to the Operating
Instructions of the controller.
The settings of the limiters using the wireless remote control
will be described here.
