SECTION 4: CONFIGURING THE PTZ CAMERA
—
IRIS
: Selects iris-priority mode to set the iris value manually. The shutter and gain values will be adjusted automatically
according to the lighting conditions.
—
SHUTTER
: Select shutter-priority mode set the shutter value manually. The iris and gain values will be adjusted
automatically according to the lighting conditions.
—
MANUAL
: Select this setting to adjust the shutter, iris and gain values manually.
•
BLC LEVEL
: You can manually adjust the backlight compensation level.
•
BLC/WDR
: You can set the BLC/WDR (backlight compensation / wide dynamic range) to ON or OFF to enable or disable the
function. You can manually adjust the backlight compensation level.
•
CHROMA SUPPRESS
: You can adjust the value of CHROMA SUPPRESS between 0, 1, 2 and 3 to suppress the color noises in
low lighting environment. Higher setting values produce stronger chroma suppressing effects.
•
CONTRAST
: adjust the image contrast on CONTRAST submenu between 0 and 7.
•
D/N LEVEL
. The D/N level is the switching sensitivity for AUTO mode. As a dividing line, IR cut filter switches between DAY and
NIGHT when the light condition reaches the user-defined D/N level. Three levels are selectable: 0, 1 and 2.
•
EXPOSURE COMPensation
: Set the EXPOSURE COMP value from 0 (darken) to 14 (lighten). The default value is 7.
•
FOCUS
: Focus settings include:
—
AF
(Auto-focus): The lens remains in focus during PTZ movements.
—
MF
(Manual Focus): To adjust the focus manually with the
Focus+
and
Focus–
buttons.
—
HAF
(Half-auto Focus): The camera automatically focuses once after panning, tilting and zooming.
•
FOCUS LIMIT
: This function is used to limit the minimum focus distance. You can configure the focus limit to a longer distance
when the target is at a distance to prevent the camera from focusing on the objects close to it; or configure the focus limit to a
shorter distance when the target is near the camera to prevent it from focusing on objects father away. You can set the
FOCUS
LIMIT
to 1CM, 30CM, 1M, 3M, 5M or AUTO.
•
GAIN
: The value of gain indicates the degree of amplification of the original light signal. You can set the value from 0 to 15.
•
GAIN LIMIT
: You can set this function to limit the gain value. The GAIN LIMIT value ranges from 0 to 15.
•
HLC
: High Light Compensation (HLC) masks strong light sources that usually flare across a scene. This makes it possible to see
the detail of the image that would normally be hidden. The value ranges from 0 to 3.
•
INIT LENS
: Use INIT LENS to trigger a spontaneous lens initiation for ensuring the normal operation. This option can be ON or
OFF.
•
IRIS
: To adjust the iris size for light entering the lens, you can set the IRIS value manually according to light conditions. The iris
value ranges from 0 (closed) to 17 (fully open).
•
IRCUT FILTER
: You can configure this option as follows:
—
AUTO
: The camera switches automatically from Black and White mode (
NIGHT
) and Color mode (
DAY
) in response to
lightening conditions (default).
—
NIGHT
(B/W): The IR cut filter will switch to NIGHT mode to increase the sensitivity in low light conditions. You can also
call Preset40 to set the IR cut filter to NIGHT mode.
—
DAY
(Color): The IR cut filter will perform in DAY mode (normal lighting conditions). You can also call Preset39 to set the
IR cut filter mode to DAY mode.
NOTE
You can also call preset
39
to set the IR cut filter mode to DAY mode and call preset
40
to set it as NIGHT mode.
•
SATURATION
: The SATURATION value ranges from 0 to 7. Adjust this parameter for the best picture quality.
