Adjusting the Line Lock (Vertical Phase) For External Sync Reference
Phase adjustment may be necessary in multiple camera installations to prevent picture roll
when switching between cameras. To adjust the vertical phase while switching between
two cameras, turn the line-lock adjustment pot on one camera until there is no vertical roll.
See Figure 2-3 for color cameras. The wide dynamic range (WDR) cameras use the
line-lock adjustment buttons to adjust the vertical phase (see Figure 2-4).
Note If the phase cannot be adjusted to prevent picture roll, reverse the line-lock
input polarity by switching the power wires.
Adjusting the Backlight Compensation
The backlight compensation (BLC) adjusts the electronic shutter speed of the camera
based on the light levels in specific areas of the scene. This adjustment provides better
image quality for scenes that are unevenly lit.
To adjust the BLC, set the BLC switch to ON. See Figure 2-3 for color cameras. Center
