is still dark after increasing exposure time and analog gain, at this time, you can increase digital
gain.

11.9.1 Set Analog Gain

The camera supports 3 types of analog gain modes:

Off

Once

and

Continuous

. Click

Analog

Control

, and select

Gain Auto

according to actual demands. The analog gain mode and principle

are shown below.

Table 11-3

Analog Gain Mode and Principle

Gain Mode

Principle

Off

The camera adjusts gain according to the value configured by
user in

Gain

Once

Adjust the gain automatically according to the image
brightness. After adjusting, it will switch to

Off

Mode.

Continuous

Adjust the gain continuously according to the image brightness.

When the analog gain is set as

Once

Continuous

, the gain should be within the range of

Auto

Gain Lower Limit

and

Auto Gain Upper Limit

Figure 11-17

Set Gain under Once or Continuous Mode

11.9.2 Set Digital Gain

Apart from analog gain, the camera supports digital gain function. When analog gain reaching its
upper limit and the image is still too dark, it is recommended to improve image brightness via
digital gain.

Click

Analog Control

, enable

Digital Shift Enable

, and enter

Digital Shift

according to actual

demands. The range of

Digital Shift

is from -6 dB to 6 dB.
