Output Mode:

 See page 7 for information.

Exposure:

 See page 8 for information.

Backlight:

 Lets you optimise and obtain an even exposure across the scene where there is 

bright light sources in the background with one of the following modes. 

• 

BLC:

 Back Light Compensation. Use this function to correct exposure for an area which 

appear dimmer in the foreground due to strong natural light in the background (e.g., a bright 
window). You can configure the BLC level and the position and size of the BLC area.

• 

HLC:

 

High Light Compensation. Use this function to mask extremely bright areas or sources 

(e.g., a bright window during the day or car headlights at night) in the scene and improve 
overall image clarity. You can configure the HLC level and the position and size of the HLC 
mask.

White Balance:

 In the default setting (

ATW

), the camera will attempt to create as neutral a white 

balance as possible. Colours tend to be slightly underexposed, but represented quite accurately. 
The colour of the light will have less of an effect on how the camera perceives colour. You can 
also select one of the following settings:

• 

AWC

SET

:

 With this you can find the optimal luminance level for the current environment. 

You’ll need to focus the camera on a white surface (or a large, white object), then click the 
“Iris +” button.

• 

Manual:

 

Define a custom white balance by adjusting the 

Blue

 and 

Red

 levels manually.

Day & Night:

 In the default setting (

AUTO

), the camera will alternate automatically between 

colour during the day or under artificial lights, and switch to black and white in low light 
conditions or when the active infrared night vision is active. You can also select one of the 
following settings:

• 

COLOR:

 The camera will only operate in day mode. The IR filter will stay activated and the 

camera will not be able to use IR light either from the camera itself or from other sources.
