depending on different camera models.

 Privacy Mask

This function allows you to block or mask certain area of a scene, for preventing the

personal privacy from recording or live viewing. A masked area will move with pan

and tilt functions and automatically adjust in size as the lens zooms telephoto and

wide.

 3D Positioning

In the client software, use the left key of mouse to click on the desired position in the

video image and drag a rectangle area in the lower right direction, then the dome

system will move the position to the center and allow the rectangle area to zoom in.

Use the left key of mouse to drag a rectangle area in the upper left direction to move

the position to the center and allow the rectangle area to zoom out.

 Proportional Pan/Tilt

Proportional pan/tilt automatically reduces or increases the pan and tilt speeds

according to the amount of zoom. At telephoto zoom settings, the pan and tilt

speeds will be slower than at wide zoom settings. This keeps the image from moving

too fast on the live view image when there is a large amount of zoom.

 Auto Focus

The auto focus enables the camera to focus automatically to maintain clear video

images.

 Day/Night Auto Switch

The speed domes deliver color images during the day. And as light diminishes at night,

the speed domes switch to night mode and deliver black and white images with high

quality.

 Slow Shutter

In slow shutter mode, the shutter speed will automatically slow down in low

illumination conditions to maintain clear video images by extending the exposure

time. The feature can be enabled or disabled.

 Backlight Compensation (BLC)

If you focus on an object against strong backlight, the object will be too dark to be

seen clearly. The BLC (Backlight Compensation) function can compensate light to the

object in the front to make it clear, but this causes the over-exposure of the

background where the light is strong.

 Wide Dynamic Range (WDR)

The wide dynamic range (WDR) function helps the camera provide clear images even

under back light circumstances. When there are both very bright and very dark areas

simultaneously in the field of view, WDR balances the brightness level of the whole

image and provide clear images with details.

Note: This feature varies depending on speed dome models.

 White Balance (WB)

White balance can remove the unrealistic color casts. White balance is the white

rendition function of the camera to adjust the color temperature according to the

environment automatically.
