Title:
レンズ制御装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4383559
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To decide an absolute position in a short time and to quickly perform optional operation even after supplying power by temporarily deciding the absolute position by using an absolute position detection means after supplying the power to a lens and correcting endpoint data in the midst of ordinary action. SOLUTION: Immediately after supplying the power, the inside of a CPU is initialized and a positioning flag and a speed setting flag are cleared (S1). The voltage of a potentiometer being the absolute position detection means is A/D converted and the converted result is set in a counter as an initial value (S2). Then, initializing action is finished and shifted to the ordinary action to control the lens in accordance with output from a zoom demand. If the endpoint signal is outputted (S4), the lens speed at the time of detecting the endpoint is obtained and set in driving speed data V (S5). Once the endpoint is detected, the lens is controlled according to the reference signal of the endpoint position instead of the reference signal of the potentiometer.
