EXPOSURE

EXPOSURE MODE
You can set the EXPOSURE MODE to GLOBAL, BLC, HLC, WDR, or HLS.

GLOBAL
GLOBAL refers to the normal exposure mode which adjusts lighting distribution, variations, and non-standard processing.
BLC (Backlight Compensation)
BLC (Backlight Compensation) compensates light to the object in the front to make it clear, but this may cause the over-exposure of the background where the light is strong.
HLC (Highlight Compensation)
HLC stands for highlight compensation. The camera detects the strong spots (the over-exposure portion of the image), then reduces the brightness of the strong spots to improve the overall image.
WDR (Wide Dynamic Range)
The wide dynamic range (WDR) function helps the camera provide clear images even under backlight circumstances. When there are both very bright and very dark areas simultaneously in the field of view, WDR balances the brightness level of the whole image and provides clear images with details.
HLS (Highlight Suppression)
It is the same visual effect as the solar eclipse. If the brightness of a part in the image exceeds the threshold, this part will become black. Then the whole image can be clear.
AGC (Auto Gain Control)
It optimizes the clarity of the image in poor light conditions. The AGC level can be set to HIGH, MEDIUM, or LOW.
Note:
The noise will be amplified when the AGC is on. SLOW SHUTTER SLOW SHUTTER increases the exposure time on a single frame, which makes a camera more sensitive to the light so it can produce images even in low lux conditions.
ANTI-BANDING
ANTI-BANDING is a camera setting that prevents the appearance of horizontal lines (banding) when photographing images in low-frequency light and high brightness environments.

VIDEO SETTINGS

Move the cursor to VIDEO SETTINGS and click Iris+ to enter the submenu. IMAGE MODE, WHITE BALANCE, BRIGHTNESS, CONTRAST, SHARPNESS, SATURATION, 3 DNR, and MIRROR are adjustable.

IMAGE MODE
IMAGE MODE is used to adjust the image saturation, and you can set it to STD (Standard) or HIGH-SAT (High Saturation).
WHITE BALANCE
White balance, the white rendition function of the camera, is to adjust the color temperature according to the environment. It can remove unrealistic color casts in the image. You can set WHITE BALANCE mode to AUTO, or MANUAL.

AUTO
Under AUTO mode, the white balance is being adjusted automatically according to the color temperature of the scene illumination.
MANUAL
You can set the R-GAIN/B-GAIN value to adjust the shades of red/blue color of the image.

BRIGHTNESS
Brightness refers to the brightness of the image. You can set the brightness value from 1 to 9 to darken or brighten the image. The greater the value is, the brighter the image is.
CONTRAST
This feature enhances the difference in color and light between parts of an image.
SHARPNESS
Sharpness determines the amount of detail an imaging system can reproduce.
SATURATION
Saturation is the proportion of pure chromatic color in the total color sensation. Adjust this feature to change the saturation of the color.
3 DNR (3D DNR)
3 DNR refers to 3D digital noise reduction. Compared with the general 2D digital noise reduction, the 3D digital noise reduction function processes the noise between two frames besides processing the noise in one frame. The noise will be much less and the video will be clearer.
MIRROR
OFF, H, V, and HV are selectable for mirrors.
OFF: The mirror function is disabled.
H: The image flips 180° horizontally.
V: The image flips 180° vertically.
HV : The image flips 180° both horizontally and vertically.

SMART LIGHT

Under the SMART LIGHT sub-menu, you can set the mode to OFF or AUTO.

OFF
Set it to OFF to give up this function.
AUTO
You can set THRESHOLD and LEVEL in this section.

FUNCTIONS

3.5.1 PIR LEVEL
Adjust the sensitivity of the PIR module. The higher the value is, the more sensitive the PIR module is.
Note:
This function is only shown when you switch the video output to TVI mode.
3.5.2 PIR DET MODE
You can set the PIR DET MODE to INDOOR or OUTDOOR to meet your needs.
Note:
This function is only shown when you switch the video output to TVI mode.
3.5.3 ALARM TIME
ALARM TIME refers to the duration of the audible and visual alarms.
3.5.4 VOLUME
You can set the volume to HIGH, MEDIUM, or LOW.
3.5.5 MOTION DET
MOTION DET refers to motion detection. With the motion detection feature, motion can be detected in any part of a camera’s view. You can configure a full screen or a number of zones in a camera’s view where motion is to be detected.
3.5.6 PRIVACY
This function allows you to block or mask certain areas of a scene, for preventing personal privacy from recording or being live viewed. You can turn on/off the PRIVACY to meet your needs.
3.5.7 DPC
DPC refers to defective pixel correction. Defective pixels are pixels on a display that are not performing as expected. This function is used to correct pixels like that.
