8.9 ALC
In the SP-5000M-GE2 and SP-5000C-GE2, auto gain, auto shutter and auto iris functions can be
combined to provide a wide ranging automatic exposure control from dark to bright or vice versa.
The functions are applied in the sequence shown below and if one function is disabled, the linkage
between the other two is maintained.
In order to make the ALC function effective, set the Auto Iris Lens Control Signal Output to “ON”.
The auto iris function (AIC) works together with AGC and Exposure Auto (ASC).
If the lighting condition is changed from bright to dark AIC ― ASC ― AGC

Fig.54 ALC function concept
ALC Reference will determine the target video level for AGC, Auto Shutter and/or Auto iris.
For instance, if ALC Reference is set to 100% video level, AGC, Auto Shutter and/or Auto Iris
will function to maintain 100% video level.
Please note that ALC function is available only in continuous mode, as well as RCT
mode.
