BRIGHTNESS CONTROL
WEB INTERFACE > BASIC SETUP > LIVE VIEW > MODE
Brightness control will automatically monitor and control the exposure of the image, with license
plate reading as a priority.
Brightness control principally adjusts exposure time (shutter) and gain. As ambient light level
decreases, both shutter and gain may be increased, but only up to a level (Shutter Max. and
Gain Max.) because a too long shutter value will result in motion blur, and gain that is set too
high will result in noise. Brightness control will also switch to night mode (engaging built in LEDs)
if illumination levels fall to a level, where capturing a color image is not possible. The icon top
left shows the current state:
– Manual mode
– Day mode
– Night mode
