Adjusting Color, Lighting, and Image Quality Settings

AMERA PAGE
These settings are available in both Low Latency mode and High Quality mode. They revert to their
factory default values when you change modes.
No two rooms are exactly alike – but a lot of rooms are a lot alike. The technical folks at Vaddio (Scott, to
be specific) have already set up adjustments for common lighting scenarios (CCU scenes) –
Incandescent Hi, Incandescent Lo, Fluorescent Hi, Fluorescent Lo, and Outdoor. The Auto setting allows
the camera to determine the appropriate adjustments.
When adjusting for the room lighting, start with a factory-defined CCU scene and fine-tune the color and
lighting as needed using the Color Settings controls. After you customize the camera's color and lighting
settings, you can save the adjustments as a custom CCU scene.
