User’s Manual Zoom Trigger Mode In this mode, AF is activated at the time when zoom is changed. PTZ Trigger Mode In this mode, AF is triggered when the Dome Camera is manipulated to pan, tilt or zoom. EXIT+SAVE Press on this item to save the selected AF Mode. • MANUAL In this mode, users can adjust focus near/far via the control keyboard’s Focus Near/Far key. After completing setup of focus, go back to the Main Page 1 and continue to set the AE mode.
User’s Manual 3.3.5 AE MODE The exposure is the amount of light received by the image sensor and is determined by the width of lens diaphragm opening (iris adjustment), the amount of exposure by the sensor (shutter speed) and other exposure parameters. With this item, users can define how the Auto Exposure (AE) function works. G/V/T Model: • EXPOSURE COMPENSATION The exposure value ranges from -10.5dB ~ 10.5dB. Select to disable the function.
User’s Manual lens controls the amount of light reaching to the surface of the selected device. By increasing the F-stop number (F1.6, F2, F2.4, etc.), less light is permitted to pass; options range from F1.6 ~ F28. MANUAL In the mode, users can adjust shutter speed (1/10000 ~ 1), iris value (F1.6 ~ F28) and gain value (-3dB ~ 28dB). • EXIT Exit the AE MODE menu and go back to the Main Page 1 to continue to set the WBC mode.
User’s Manual • AGC With this option, the priority of AGC is higher than SHUTTER and IRIS; SHUTTER and IRIS circuit will function automatically in cooperating with AGC to get consistent exposure. The range of AGC level is between 00 and 05. NOTE: For P and M models, if AE MODE is set as SHUTTER, IRIS or AGC mode rather than AUTO mode, the following functions will be turned off automatically: WDR, Digital Slow Shutter and Alarm Detect.
User’s Manual IRIS In this mode, the IRIS function adjusts exposure in higher property. SHUTTER speed and AGC circuit will function automatically in cooperating with IRIS to get consistent exposure output. The IRIS value is fixed at f1.6. Manual In the mode, users can adjust shutter speed (1/10000 ~ 1/50 for PAL; 1/10000 ~ 1/60 for NTSC) and gain value (-3dB ~ 28dB) for optimized video output. • EXIT Exit the AE MODE menu and go back to the Main Page 1 to continue to set the WBC mode.
User’s Manual 3.3.6 WBC MODE A digital camera needs to find reference color temperature, which is a way of measuring the quality of a light source, for calculating all the other colors. The unit for measuring this ratio is in degree Kelvin (K). You can select one of the White Balance Control modes according to the condition. The following table shows the color temperature of some light sources.

User’s Manual 3.3.7 SETUP MENU 1 In Setup Menu 1, users could set Zoom Speed and choose whether to activate functions including Digital Zoom, Slow Shutter, Noise Reduction, Image Inverse and Image Freeze. Refer to the following description for use of each function.
User’s Manual NOTE: The difference between optical and digital zoom is that optical zoom uses the lens within the camera to draw the image closer via zoom in or out to achieve the desired effect. Optical zoom remains the same quality and full resolution of the zoomed image. On the other hand, Digital zoom takes a portion of an image and expands the partial image to the full size of the original image; therefore, the image quality will be reduced.
User’s Manual • DIGITAL NOISE REDUCTION (P/S3/S4/S5/S6 Model) For S3/S4/S5/S6 models, with 2D / 3D Digital Noise Reduction (D.N.R.), the processor analyzes pixel by pixel and frame by frame to eliminate environmental noise signal so that the highest quality image can be produced even in low light conditions. In comparison with 2D D.N.R., 3D D.N.R generates better denoising effects. As for P model, the D.N.R. is adjustable from <1> to <4>; level 4 achieves best denoising results.
User’s Manual • APERTURE Under this setup menu, users can adjust enhancement of the edges of objects in the picture. G/V/T/S3/S4/S5/S6 Model: There are 16 levels of adjustment; the options are <01> ~ <16>; <01> represents “no enhancement”. When shooting text, this function could make it sharp. P/M Model: Users can select either the mode or mode. Under the mode, the parameters of H aperture and V aperture are adjustable, ranging from 00 to 31.
