Initiatives on the Use of Video Products
Thank you for choosing Hikvision products.
Technology affects every aspect of our life. As a high-tech
company, we are increasingly aware of the role
technology plays in improving business efficiency and
quality of life, but at the same time, the potential harm of
its improper usage. For example, video products are
capable of recording real, complete and clear images. This
provides a high value in retrospect and preserving real-
time facts. However, it may also result in the infringement
of a third party’s legitimate rights and interests if
improper distribution, use and/or processing of video data
takes place. With the philosophy of “Technology for the
Good”, Hikvision requests that every end user of video
technology and video products shall comply with all the
applicable laws and regulations, as well as ethical
customs, aiming to jointly create a better community.
Please read the following initiatives carefully:
1. Everyone has a reasonable expectation of privacy,
and the installation of video products should not be
in conflict with this reasonable expectation.
Therefore, a warning notice shall be given in a
reasonable and effective manner and clarify the
monitoring range, when installing video products in
public areas. For non-public areas, a third party’s
rights and interests shall be evaluated when
installing video products, including but not limited
to, installing video products only after obtaining the
consent of the stakeholders, and not installing
highly-invisible video products.
2. The purpose of video products is to record real
activities within a specific time and space and under
specific conditions. Therefore, every user shall first
reasonably define his/her own rights in such specific
scope, in order to avoid infringing on a third party’s
portraits, privacy or other legitimate rights.
3. During the use of video products, video image data
derived from real scenes will continue to be
generated, including a large amount of biological
data (such as facial images), and the data could be
further applied or reprocessed. Video products
themselves could not distinguish good from bad
regarding how to use the data based solely on the
images captured by the video products. The result of
data usage depends on the method and purpose of
use of the data controllers. Therefore, data
controllers shall not only comply with all the
applicable laws and regulations and other normative
requirements, but also respect international norms,
social morality, good morals, common practices and
other non-mandatory requirements, and respect
individual privacy, portrait and other rights and
interests.
4. The rights, values and other demands of various
stakeholders should always be considered when
processing video data that is continuously generated
by video products. In this regard, product security
and data security are extremely crucial. Therefore,
every end user and data controller, shall undertake
all reasonable and necessary measures to ensure
data security and avoid data leakage, improper
disclosure and improper use, including but not
limited to, setting up access control, selecting a
suitable network environment (the Internet or
Intranet) where video products are connected,
establishing and constantly optimizing network
security.
Video products have made great contributions to the
improvement of social security around the world, and we
believe that these products will also play an active role in
more aspects of social life. Any abuse of video products in
violation of human rights or leading to criminal activities
are contrary to the original intent of technological
innovation and product development. Therefore, each
user shall establish an evaluation and tracking mechanism
of their product application to ensure that every product
is used in a proper and reasonable manner and with good
faith.

3.2 EXPOSURE
EXPOSURE MODE
You can set the EXPOSURE MODE to GLOBAL, BLC, HLC,
WDR, or HLS.
GLOBAL
GLOBAL refers to the normal exposure mode that 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.
WDR (Wide Dynamic Range)
The wide dynamic range (WDR) function helps the
camera provide clear images even under back light
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 detailed images.
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 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 setting the AGC level.
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.
Note:
The function is not supported by the device model with
power over coaxial (PoC) technology.
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.
3.3 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)
14
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.
MODE
The function is to reduce frame rate in low-light
environment in order to increase SNR and enhance the
brightness of the image.
MODE1: Turn on the function.
MODE2: Turn off the function.
Note:
The function is not supported by the device powered via
coaxial (PoC) technology, or the device with its video
format setting to 3K@20 fps.
