4.2.7 Sensitivity Knob

Turning this knob increases (clockwise) or decreases

(counterclockwise) the light sensitivity of the camera.

Thus by turning the knob the image brightness

changes (high sensitivity = high brightness, low

sensitivity = low brightness).
The current sensitivity value is displayed on the lower

left side of the PC acquisition module screen. Note

that the image begins to blur when the sensitivity is

set to values lower than 40 – 50.
