HOW TO ACCESS THE CAMERA’S OSD MENUS*
The camera has four separate sensors, each with its own OSD menu and settings. When adjusting the camera’s settings, each lens/ sensor will have their own set of values and settings and will be set separately.
To access each sensor’s OSD menus select one of the following options:
1. The camera has four (4) BNC outputs, each supporting UTC (Up the Coax) communication. When the camera is connected to a DVR supporting UTC communication like the VMAX A1
TM
All-in-One DVR, you can access the camera’s OSD menu directly from
the DVR.
2. The camera supports RS485 communication, allowing to control the camera remotely.
3. In the camera’s external control board, there is a switch next to the joystick controller. The switch determines which of the four (4) sensors will be displayed in the secondary BNC output. Once the switches are set to a specific sensor, press the joystick controller to view the sensor’s OSD menu. The sensor’s display will appear at the top left corner of the display for 60 sec. Refer to the images in the next page for more information on the switch settings for each sensor selection.

EXPOSURE
BACKLIGHT OFF HME HIGHLIGHT MASKING EXPOSURE
HME allows objects to appear clearly on the screen by masking extremely bright areas. To setup HME, set the level and color. The lower the setting, the darker the masking areas have to be. Select from: 0 ~ 10. Color: Set the color of the HME mask. Select from: BLACK / WHITE / YELLOW / CYAN / GREEN / MAGENTA / RED / BLUE
BLC BACK LIGHT COMPENSATION
If BLC is selected, adjust the size and position of the mask:
- H-POS: Move the Zone position left or right. The higher the number, the zone will move to the right.
- V-POS: Move the Zone position up or down. The higher the number, the zone will move down.
- H-Size: Reset the zone‘s size horizontally. The higher the number, the right side panel will move further to the right.
- V-Size: Reset the zone’s size vertically. The higher the number, the bottom side panel will move further down.
WDR Wide Dynamic Range
If WDR is selected, adjust the WDR level (Weight) in the sub-menu. Select from Low, Middle, or High (Default).

EXPOSURE
DRC DYNAMIC RANGE COMPRESSOR
DRC enables dark areas in images to become more visible without overexposing the
bright areas to create one perfect image. Select from: OFF / ON. NOTE: If WDR or DEFOG are enabled, the DRC settings are set automatically and will not be available for adjustment.
DEFOG Allows the camera to process a scene that is obscured by fog or weather conditions
and provides a visibly improved image. AUTO / Manual: Select AUTO to have the WDR and DRC levels adjusted automatically. Set the DEFOG level from LOW / MIDDLE / HIGH.
AGC AUTO GAIN CONTROL
0~10 AGC enhances the picture brightness in low light conditions. A higher level AGC setting makes the images brighter; however, it could increase the amount of noise.
STARLIGHT Automatically activates slow shutter function when the image is too dark.
OFF / x2 ~ x34 High values are not recommended as they may causes the image to lag. (Default: X4) Starlight menu cannot be controlled if the SHUTTER setting is above 1/60.
3D DNR 3D DIGITAL NOISE REDUCTION
OFF/ LOW/ 3D-DNR reduces the noise on the screen in low light conditions and MID/ HIGH allows for clearer images, even at night.
