3.3 EXPOSURE
EXPOSURE MODE
You can set the EXPOSURE MODE to GLOBAL, BLC, HLC,
or DWDR.
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
over-exposure of the background where the light is
strong.
HLC (Highlight Compensation)
HLC stands for highlight compensation. The camera
detects strong spots (over-exposure portion of image)
and reduces the brightness of strong spots to improve
the overall images.
DWDR (Digital Wide Dynamic Range)
Digital wide dynamic range gives the camera the ability
to view dark areas of the given image as well as
extremely lighted portions of the image, or areas of
high contrast.
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 setting the AGC level.
3.4 LIGHTING SETTINGS
LIGHTING MODE
IR and WHITE LIGHT are available.
IR
IR LIGHT
You can turn on/off the IR LIGHT to meet the
requirements of different circumstances.
SMART IR
The Smart IR function is used to adjust the light to its
most suitable intensity, and prevent the image from
over exposure.
D N Threshold (Day to Night Threshold)
Day to Night Threshold is used to control the sensitivity
of switching the day mode to the night mode. You can
set the value from 1 to 9. The larger the value is, the
more sensitive the camera is.
N D Threshold (Night to Day Threshold)
Night to Day Threshold is used to control the sensitivity
of switching the night mode to the day mode. You can
set the value from 1 to 9. The larger the value is, the
more sensitive the camera is.
WHITE LIGHT
Under the WHITE 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.
THRESHOLD
The higher the threshold is, the more sensitive the
device is to dark environment.
LEVEL
You can adjust the maximum brightness of supplement
light.

brighter the image is.
CONTRAST
This feature enhances the difference in color and light
between parts of an image.
