Shift to Bottom Row Controls:
Red and Blue Pedestal: These controls allow the Red and Blue Pedestal to be adjusted (see Panasonic
manual).
DRS: Dynamic Range Stretch optimizes images that have a wide contrast range. When dark, bright and
intermediate areas are all in the same image or rapidly changing lighting changes occur frequently, DRS
estimates a gamma curve and knee slope for each image pixel to minimize blocked shadows and blown
highlights. Set to off to disable the DRS feature.
Shutter: Choose between settings: 1/100, 1/250. 1/500, 1/1000, 1/2000, 1/4000, 1/10,000 and Syncroserve.
ND Filter: This is for selecting the transmissivity of the ND filter (light-dimming filter), which is incorporated in the
lens. Four positions (Off, 1/4, 1/16. 1/64).
The menus and controllability of the AW-HE120 is rather extensive, so please see the Panasonic manual for
further explanation of the control parameters.

Power Supply Input: The Quick-Connect CCU uses a 36VDC, 2.78 Amp power supply on a 5.5mm OD x
2.5mm ID connector.
Power on RJ-45: Power is provided on a Cat-5 cable to EZIM CCU (EZCamera Interface Module).
RS-232 IN on RJ-45: RS-232 Input from ProductionVIEW™, Precision Camera Controller or PTZ controller.
Daisy Chain control is not supported.
RS-232 OUT / G/L Out on RJ-45: RS-232 and G/L outputs on Cat-5 provide control and sync to the EZIM CCU.
NOTE: See Appendix 1 for information on adjusting Genlock Gain on the EZIM CCU.
Tally on 2-pin Molex 5.0mm Euro-Style connector: A contact closure lights the blue LED on front panel
allowing indication of which CCU and camera combination is active in a multi-camera CCU installation. A tally
command will also be sent to the camera via RS-232 to illuminate the LED on the cameras that have on-board
tally lights (Vaddio and BRC Series cameras).
G/L Input on BNC-F: For use with black burst generators to externally sync the cameras. This input is
transmitted through a differential amplifier to a receiver at the EZIM CCU. The G/L gain adjustment is on the
EZIM CCU or the receive side of the signal.
Camera Feature Switches: The CCU interface has an 8-position dip switch on the rear panel to allow future
functionality. All switches should be in the down position.
Y-Gain: Adjusts Y-Gain and allows the user to fine tune the video signal especially over longer cable lengths.
Adjust to taste and system requirements.
Distance: Distance Adjustments for Cat. 5 cable (<100’, 200’, 300’, 400’+) equalizes the length of the twisted
pairs for improved video performance.
Video Outputs: Four Video Signals at any one time can be transmitted from the EZIM CCU concurrently
allowing the CCU system to return HD and SD at the same time. Note: Simultaneous SD requires the camera is
equipped correctly.
