The Panasonic GP-KS822CU is a NTSC system camera control unit which works with the GP-KS822H camera head. The CCU is tethered to the camera head via a special cable. This control box controls iris, shutter, white balance, gamma, color matrix and other video parameters.The finest in high image quality and ease of use. This industrial camera series features a slim, compact body, definitive image technology and covers a broad spectrum of innovative applications from production line monitoring to specialized event videography. For the first time in the industry, the series makes use of a new CCD drive system and new easy-to-use image conversion functions resulting in higher image quality. Another high performance technology breakthrough by Panasonic.

Key Features:
• Video Functions:
The GP-KS822CU is the CCU for the GP-KS822H and they both operate for NTSC system video only. The control unit provides control over white balance, shutter, gain and other technical parameters. It also has a single button for freeze frame capture. A recent addition to the features is the mirror-image/rotate image function. If the camera is to be used as a rear view instrument on a large SUV, limousine or bus, the CCU can flip the image around as if it were a rear-view mirror. Industrial applications might require that the image be rotated for the best viewing angle.
• Auto Sensing Selection:
The CCU features a Sensing Area Selection function. This function has four image sensing patterns including ALL, Small, Wide and Auto Detection.
• Versatile Output Signals:
The GP-KS822CU has both Composite Video and S-Video outputs. The 4-pin S-video produces higher resolution images with well-balanced colors.
• Other Functions:
The CCU has a Brightness Control feature that maintains a constant video signal level by automatically controlling AGC and ELC functions. The ELC function continuously controls light coming into the CCD. The unit also has 2 white balance memory settings, Aperture level selection and manual white balance.
