Yeah. There is also an AutoPowerOff option. These are the VISCA serial-something commands, which you need a VISCA controller panel and special cables to access. I bought this camera on the recommendation that is is the next gen replacement for the EVI-D30.
The camera turns off after ONE minute, even when something is lit and moving infront of it. It comes with a remote, a mounting kit, a manual and that's it. You can't set the values with the remote, and the defaults should have these options set off. There is no way I'm buying a camera control panel just to disable the auto-off timer. It's a shame. This is a really nice camera and it is useless to me. Victor M.
