2. Use the slider to set the
Priority
between
Low motion blur
and
Low noise
. When prioritizing low motion blur (slider
all the way to the right) the camera automatically increases gain as brightness decreases. When the gain reaches the
set maximum gain for low light, the camera will decrease shutter speed until the set maximum shutter for low light is
reached. This is the default priority setting for low light.
3. Select the
Max gain
value from the drop-down list. This defines the upper limit for gain in the context of normal light.
4.
Max fast shutter
sets shutter speed limit in normal light conditions. Depending on the scenario, the shutter speed limit
may need to be defined. This is done through
System Options
>
Advanced
>
Plain Config
.
Image Settings
Noise reduction -
Set to
On
to enable noise reduction. Noise reduction may increase the amount of motion blur.
Stabilizer -
When monitoring environments that are subject to vibrations (e.g. traffic control), images may appear to be unsteady.
Select
On
to steady the image. See the online help
for more information.
Image freeze on PTZ -
Select
All movements
to freeze the image while the camera is moving during a pan, tilt or zoom operation.
Once the camera reaches its new position, the view from that position is shown.
Presets
freezes the image only when the camera
moves between preset positions.
Day/Night
The IR cut filter prevents infrared (IR) light from reaching the image sensor. In poor lighting conditions, for example at night, or when
using an external IR lamp, set the IR cut filter to
Off
. This increases light sensitivity and allows the product to “see” infrared light. The
image is shown in black and white when the IR cut filter is off.
If using automatic
Exposure control
, set the IR cut filter to
Auto
to automatically switch between
On
and
Off
according to the
lighting conditions.
The
Day/Night shift level
bar helps determine when the camera will shift from day mode to night mode. Normally, the camera
automatically changes mode from day to night when very dark (level 100 in the slider). By setting
Day/Night shift level
to a
lower value, the camera will change to night mode earlier.
About overlays
Overlays are superimposed over the video stream. They are used to provide extra information during recordings, such as a timestamp,
or during product installation and configuration.
About overlay text
An overlay text can include the current date and time, or a text string. When using a text string, so-called modifiers can be used to
display, for example, the name of the current week or month.
You can choose between the following text overlay sizes:
Size
Text height
Background height
Small
10 pixels
20 pixels
Medium
16 pixels
28 pixels
Large
21 pixels
36 pixels
It is also possible to display text when an action rule is triggered, see
How to include overlay text in an action rule on page 22
.
How to include overlay text
1. Go to
Video > Video Stream
and select the
