value of the selected item.
2.1 VIDEO FORMAT
You can select the video format as 2MP@25fps , or
2MP@30fps.
Note:
When switching the video output as CVBS, you can
set the video format as PAL, or NTSC.
2.2 EXPOSURE
You can set the EXPOSURE MODE as GLOBAL, BLC, or
WDR.
GLOBAL
GLOBAL refers to the normal exposure mode which
adjusts lighting distribution, variations, and
non-standard processing.
BLC (Backlight Compensation)
BLC (Backlight Compensation) compensates light to the
object in the front to make it clear, but this may cause
the over-exposure of the background where the light is
strong.
WDR (Wide Dynamic Range)
The wide dynamic range helps the camera provide clear
images even under backlight circumstances. WDR
balances the brightness level of the whole image and
provides clear images with details.
2.3 DAY/NIGHT
COLOR, B&W (Black White), and AUTO are selectable
for DAY and NIGHT switches.
COLOR
The image is colored in day mode all the time.
B/W
The image is black and white all the time, and it is
better to turn the IR LIGHT on in poor light conditions.
IR LIGHT
You can turn on/off the IR LIGHT to meet the
requirements of different circumstances.
SMART IR
The Smart IR function is used to adjust the light to its
most suitable intensity, and prevent the image from
over exposure.
You can select the mode as MODE 1, or MODE 2.
MODE 1 is the default mode that can be applied to both
indoor conditions, and outdoor conditions. When
selecting the MODE 1, the IR Light has more obvious
effects.
LEVEL
The LEVEL value can be adjusted from 0 to 3. The
greater the value is, the more obvious effects are.
AUTO
You can turn on/off the IR LIGHT, and set the value of
SMART IR in this menu.

The LEVEL value can be adjusted from 0 to 3. The
greater the value is, the more obvious effects are.
D-N THRESHOLD ((Day to Night Threshold)
Day to Night Threshold is used to control the sensitivity
of switching the day mode to the night mode. You can
set the value from 1 to 9. The larger the value is, the
more sensitive the camera is.
N-D THRESHOLD (Night to Day Threshold)
Night to Day Threshold is used to control the sensitivity
of switching the night mode to the day mode. You can
set the value from 1 to 9. The larger the value is, the
more sensitive the camera is.
2.4 VIDEO SETTINGS

IMAGE MODE
IMAGE MODE is used to adjust the image saturation,
and you can set it as STD (Standard) or HIGH-SAT (High
Saturation).
BRIGHTNESS
Brightness refers to the brightness of the image. You
can set the brightness value from 1 to 9 to darken or
brighten the image. The greater the value is, the
brighter the image is.
CONTRAST
This feature enhances the difference in color and light
between parts of an image. You can set the CONTRAST
value from 1 to 9.
SHARPNESS
Sharpness determines the amount of detail an imaging
system can reproduce. You can set the SHARPNESS
value from 1 to 9.
SATURATION
Adjust this feature to change the saturation of the color.
The value ranges from 1 to 9.
3DNR
The 3DNR function can decrease the noise effect and
deliver more accurate and sharp image. You can set the
3DNR value from 1 to 9.
AGC (Auto Gain Control)
It optimizes the clarity of the image in poor light
conditions. The AGC level can be set as HIGH, MEDIUM,
or LOW.
Note:
The noise will be amplified when setting the AGC level.
The higher the level is, the more obvious the noise is.
SLOW SHUTTER
SLOW SHUTTER increases the exposure time on a single
frame, which makes the camera more sensitive to the
light so that it can produce images even in low lux
conditions.
You can set the SLOW SHUTTER function as OFF, x2, x4,
x6, x8, x10, x12, x14, or x16 according to the different
light conditions.
MIRROR
OFF, H, V, and HV are selectable for mirror.
OFF: The mirror function is disabled.
H: The image flips 180° horizontally.
V: The image flips 180° vertically.
HV: The image flips 180° both horizontally and
vertically.
