mined automatically by the software.
SHUTTER PRIORITY: Configure shutter settings only. Gain and iris settings are de-
termined automatically by the software.
MANUAL: Advanced users only — this mode requires you to configure the settings
for gain, iris, and shutter to achieve proper exposure.
4. Under GAIN SETTING, click the left / right arrow keys to set the gain value (1–16). Set­ting the gain manually allows you to artificially create a brighter (high gain) or darker (low gain) image. The AE MODE must be set to MANUAL to configure the gain value.
5. Under SHUTTER, click the left / right arrow keys to set the shutter speed (1/4 – 1/ 30,000). Setting the shutter speed manually determines how long the camera shutter remains open when capturing an image. It is recommended to keep shutter speed set to 1/60 to ensure smooth video. The AE MODE must be set to MANUAL or SHUTTER PRIO to configure the shutter speed.
6. Under IRIS, click the left / right arrow keys to adjust the iris (1–18). Setting the iris man­ually determines how much light comes through the lens. The AE MODE must be set to MANUAL or IRIS PRIO to configure the iris setting.
1.3.3 Exposure Compensation
Use exposure compensation to fine-tune the camera’s exposure. You can use exposure compensation with automatic exposure to brighten or darken an image to your preference.

Using the On-Screen Display (OSD) Menu
To configure AGC:
1. Use the on-screen arrow keys to navigate to CAMERA SETTING and click Enter.
2. Select EXPOSURE SETTING and click Enter.
3. Select NEXT PAGE and click Enter.
4. Under AGC GAIN LIMIT, click the left / right arrow keys to set the high limit for the cam­era’s automatic gain control (1–3). It is recommended to set the gain limit at 3. Use a lower setting to reduce noise in the camera image.
1.3.7 2D & 3D Digital Noise Reduction
The camera features 2 types of noise reduction: 2D temporal noise reduction (NR in the OSD menu) and 3D spatial noise reduction (CAMERA 3D NR). 2D noise reduction helps to limit the appearance of noise (graininess in the camera image) around stationary ob­jects. 3D noise reduction accomplishes the same process for moving objects as well, pro­viding clearer images in low light conditions. Removing noise from the camera image reduces your recording file size and makes videos clearer and more detailed.
To configure noise reduction:
1. Use the on-screen arrow keys to navigate to CAMERA SETTING and click Enter.
2. Select EXPOSURE SETTING and click Enter.
3. Select NEXT PAGE and click Enter.

less the camera is in a constantly dark environment.
4. Under TYPE, click the left / right arrow keys to select one of the following options:
ELECTRON: Day / night switch-over is determined by camera software. This is rec-
ommended if the camera switches its viewing mode at around the same time every day (for example, sunset or sunrise in an outdoor location).
MECHANISM: Day / night switch-over is determined by a light filter. This is recom-
mended if the camera is in a location with fluctuating light conditions (for example, indoors with lights turning on and off throughout the day).
5. Under THRESHOLD, click the left / right arrow keys to set the conditions for day / night switch-over. Select a number between 1 (switch-over in brighter conditions) and 8 (switch-over in darker conditions).
