LENS
Manual Manual mode supports the fixed board lens or the manual iris
lens.
DC DC mode supports the auto-iris varifocal lens.
NOTE: Both MANUAL and DC mode have FOCUS TARGET. You can adjust
the focus by finding the highest number on the FOCUS TARGET.
See page 16 for focus information.
ELC Levels and DC Levels are adjustable. The higher the number, the brighter
the image.
E. Shutter sets the shutter speed levels from 1/60 to 1/100000.
*For LENS-MANUAL Mode, the default E.SHUTTER is AUTO.
*For LENS-DC Mode, the default E.SHUTTER is 1/60. Select DC-AUTO for oudoor use.
Select 1/100FLC to run camera in flickerless mode.
Note: The STARLIGHT option cannot be controlled if the E.SHUTTER setting
is above 1/60.

BACKLIGHT
OFF
BLC BACK LIGHT COMPENSATION
MANUAL User can manually adjust the BLC level in five areas of the scene (TOP, BOTTOM, CENTER, LEFT, RIGHT).
Increase the BLC levels to make the image brighter.
SMART This is recommended. Camera will automatically detect and adjust the BLC zone. BLC levels to choose
from include: LOWEST, LOW, MID, HIGH.
HME HIGHLIGHT MASKING EXPOSURE
HME masks highlights to allow objects to appear clearly on the screen. If ON is selected, HME levels are
adjustable. The lower the number, the darker the masking areas.
DRC DYNAMIC RANGE COMPRESSOR
With the advanced light compensation technology DRC, dark spots in images particularly become more visible
without overexposing the bright spots to create one perfect image. The higher the number, the better the
performance of DRC.

EXPOSURE
AGC (AUTO GAIN CONTROL) AGC enhances the picture brightness in low light conditions. A higher
OFF / LOW / MID / HIGH / HIGHEST level AGC setting makes the images brighter; however, it could increase
the amount of noise.
STARLIGHT Starlight mode automatically activates slow shutter function when the
OFF / x2 ~ x1024 image is too dark. x4 is the default. We do not recommend you to
increase the setting, for it causes the image to lag.
Note: Starlight menu cannot be controlled if the E.SHUTTER setting is
above 1/60.
3D DNR (DIGITAL NOISE REDUCTION) 3D-DNR reduces the noise on the screen in low light conditions and
OFF / LOW / MID / HIGH / SMART allows for clearer images, even at night. The SMART option will adjust
the camera to prevent lagging when there is motion.
