Automatic Electronic Shutter (AES)
When using a manual iris lens (no plug) the DIP switch should be set
to AES. The camera will then adjust automatically to changes in light
conditions.
•
Direct Drive Auto Iris (DD)
When using a plug-in, auto iris, DC-type lens set the DIP switch to
DD. In this case the camera and lens will work together to adjust to
changes in light conditions. Once the camera setup is complete, see
Section 6.1 for instructions on setting the auto-iris level.

Backlight compensation controls iris gain and white balance
simultaneously. If you have objects in the foreground that appear
silhouetted in front of a brighter background, set backlight compensation
on. The foreground objects will appear with greater definition.
Note: Compensation may be insufficient when the background is extremely bright.
