Figure 3-2 AE
BRIGHTNESS
Brightness refers to the brightness of the image. You can set the brightness value from 1 to 10 to darken or brighten the image. The higher the value is, the brighter the image is.
EXPOSURE MODE
You can set AE mode as GLOBAL, BLC, and WDR.
GLOBAL
GLOBAL refers to the normal exposure mode which is for adjusting the situations including unusual lightng distribution, variations, non-standard processing, or other conditions of under exposure to get an opmum image.
● BLC (Backlight Compensaon)
BLC (Backlight Compensaon) compensate light to the object in the front to make it clear, but this causes the over-exposure of the background where the light is strong.
When BLC is selected as the exposure mode, the BLC level can be adjusted from 0 to 8.
● WDR (Wide Dynamic Range)
The wide dynamic range (WDR) funcon helps the camera provide clear images even under back light circumstances. WDR balances the brightness level of the whole image and provide clear images with details.
GAIN
It optimizes the clarity of image in poor light scene. The GAIN level can be set to HIGH, MIDDLE, and LOW. Select OFF to disable the GAIN funcon.
The noise will be amplified if the GAIN is on.
3.2.3 WB (White Balance)
White balance is the white rendition funcon of the camera to adjust the color temperature according to the environment. It can remove the unrealisc color casts in the image. You can set WB mode as ATW, and MWB.
ATW
In ATW mode, white balance is being adjusted automatically according to the color temperature of the scene illuminaon.
MWB
You can set the R GAIN/B GAIN value from 0 to 255 to adjust the shades of red/blue color of the image.
| WB | |
| MODE | MWB |
| R GAIN | 5 |
| B GAIN | 5 |

INFRARED
You can select to turn on/o the IR LED to response to the requirements of dierent circumstances.
- SMART IR
The Smart IR funcon is used to adjust the light to its most suitable intensity, and to prevent the image from over exposure. The SMART IR value can be adjusted from 0 to 3. The higher the value is, the more obvious eects are, and it is disabled when the value is 0.
3.2.5 VIDEO SETTING
Move the cursor to VIDEO SETTING and press the conrm buon to enter the submenu. CONTRAST, SHARPNESS, COLOR GAIN, DNR and MIRROR are adjustable.

CONTRAST
This feature enhances the dience in color and light between parts of an image. You can set the CONTRAST value from 1 to 10.
SHARPNESS
Sharpness determines the amount of detail an imaging system can reproduce. You can set the SHARPNESS value from 1 to 10.
COLOR GAIN
Adjust this feature to change the saturaon of the color. The value ranges from 1 to 10.
DNR (Digital Noise Reducon)
The DNR funcon can decrease the noise effect, especially when capturing moving images in low light conditions and delivering more accurate and sharp image quality.
You can set the DNR value from 1 to 10.
MIRROR
DEFAULT, H, V, and HV are selectable for mirror.
DEFAULT: The mirror funcon is disabled.
H: The image ips 180 degree horizontally.
