3.1 BACKLIGHT COMPENSATION (BLC OFF OR ON)
Backlight compensation controls iris gain and white balance
simultaneously. If you have objects in the foreground that appear
silhouetted in front of a brighter background, set backlight compensation
to ON. The foreground objects appear with greater definition.
Note: Compensation might be insufficient when the background is extremely bright .
3.2 FLICKER CONTROL (FL OFF OR ON)
Note: This switch is not available for the KTC-217 or KTC-247 cameras
If you install the camera in an area with fluorescent lighting, the picture
on the camera monitor might flicker. To minimize the flicker effect, set
the FL switch to ON.

3.3 WHITE BALANCE (ATW OR FIX)
Note: This switch is not available for the KTC-117 cameras
• Auto-tracking white balance (ATW) mode
In the ATW mode, the range of colors in the scene being monitored
is tracked continuously, and the white balance is set automatically
by an internal micro-controller. If the color range changes
constantly, then set the switch to ATW.
• Fixed white balance (FIX) mode
In Fix mode, the camera uses white as its reference and
automatically adjusts the content of blue and red in the picture to
provide a picture with a balanced color content. If the color range of
the scene being monitored remains constant, then set the switch to
FIX.
3.4 VIEW (NORMAL OR MIRROR)
• Normal
In normal mode, the video image appears on the monitor as it
appears in front of the camera.
• Mirror
In mirror mode, the video image is flipped left to right before it
appears on the monitor.
3.5 ZOOM (NORMAL OR E ZOOM)
• Normal
In normal mode, the video image appears without any digital
magnification.
• E Zoom
In E Zoom mode, the camera digitally zooms the video image
approximately three times that of normal view.
Note: The image quality is not as high in E Zoom mode as it is normal mode.
