3.4.3.Low Light Compensation (SlowShutter)
The default setting is "ON" (checked box). When Low Light Compensation is "ON", the camera
will decrease the shutter speed to increase sensitivity, if the camera judges that there is not
enough illumination. In this mode, the frame rate will decrease.
*The shutter speed does not change due to Low Light Compensation when the frame rate is
7.5fps on WAT-03U2 / WAT-03U2D.
*The shutter speed does not change due to Low Light Compensation when the frame rate is 5fps
or 7.5fps on WAT-05U2M / WAT-06U2 / WAT-07U2 / WAT-06U2D / WAT-07U2D.
*This function is not available with Windows XP and older OS.
3.5.Camera Control
The setting window is accessed from the Panels -> Camera Control at the top of the
WatecCameraViewer window.
Almost all functions are set from the Video Capture Pin or Video Capture Filter, and Camera Control.
However,
“Sensor Sense” can be set only from the Camera Control window.
3.5.1.Sensor Sense
The default setting is
“HIGH”. When the setting is “LOW”, the sensitivity of the image censor is half
in the “HIGH” setting. “LOW” setting is effective in the very bright areas, such as in the sunlight.
This function is available for WAT-05U2M / WAT-06U2 / WAT-06U2D / WAT-07U2 / WAT-07U2D.
