Configuration and Operation
CM-6212 H1-I User and Installation Guide
Four white balance modes are available:
·
Auto – The Auto Balance White mode computes the white balance value output using color
information from the entire screen. It is suitable for an environment with a light source color
temperature in the range of approximately 2,700 ~ 7,500K. This is the default setting.
·
ATW (Auto Track ing White Balance) – The Auto Tracking White Balance function automatically
adjusts the white balance in a scene while temperature color is changing. The ATW Mode is
suitable for an environment with a light source color temperature in the range of approximately
2500 ~ 10,000K. This is the default setting.
·
One Push – This button activates the factory-optimized setting for white balance. This setting may
not be ideal for every lighting environment.
·
Manual – In this mode, you can manually change the white balance value. You can select a
number between 0 – 127 for either/both Rgain and Bgain to increase the red and/or blue
luminance.
Click SET to confirm the new settings.
9.5.3.2 Backlight
Backlight compensation is used in images where a bright light source is behind the subject of interest.
Without backlight compensation, the subject would normally appear in silhouette. The backlight function of
the camera allows it to adjust the exposure of the entire image to properly expose the subject in the
foreground. Select
On or Off . The default setting is Off .
Click SET to confirm the new settings.

9.5.3.3 WDR Function
WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) resolves high contrast or changing light issues in order to enhance the image
quality. It does this by producing a larger amount of details in both the dark and bright areas of the image.
Such scenes combine areas with different lighting conditions, where some areas are very bright and others
are dark. If this function was not used, the image either would be overexposed or too bright in bright areas
and completely dark in dark areas.
