• Electronic sensitivity boosting (SENSE UP) automatically lengthens the CCD exposure time in dark situations. Accordingly, moving target objects may cause conspicuous afterimages, blurs and white spots.

• When electronic sensitivity boosting (SENSE UP) is enabled, the electronic shutter function will not work.

• When the Day/Night function is set to “AUTO”, electronic sensitivity boosting (SENSE UP) works only while black and white image is displayed.

Notes on setting electronic iris (EI):

• If the iris views an unusually bright image, it can cause a smear that cannot be corrected by adjusting the light entering through the lens. In this case, arrange the physical angle of lighting in a way that will prevent on-screen smearing.

• If there is a fluorescent lighting in the camera location, flickering of the target object may occur. Changing fluorescent lighting to incandescent lighting will prevent the flickering.

• When the electronic iris (EI) is activated, the electronic shutter (SHUTTER) setting cannot be made.

To place a mask pattern over specific light sources in the target object, do the following.

Mask patterns can be placed only when registering a view setting file in the CAMERA VIEW screen.

While “ATW y” is selected by using the joystick

lever (vw), press the [ENTER] button.
