8 OSD MENU TREE
This camera supports Up the Coax communications (UTC). This means that all control
over the camera’s OSD menu and settings can be done directly from the DVR itself.
Please note that the DVR must also support UTC in order to control and setup the camera
remotely.
8.1 LENS
Adjust the camera’s lens between DC and
manual options. Manual mode supports the
fixed board lens or the manual iris lens.
When you are done, go to SAVE&END to
shave the new settings.
8.2 EXPOSURE
SHUTTER: Set the shutter speed to manual or auto.
If manual is selected, set the shutter speed to one of the options from: 1/30~
1/50000.
Select FLK if the camera is experiencing some flickering in the image.
AGC (Auto Gain Control):AGC enhances
the picture brightness in low light
conditions. A higher level AGC setting
makes the images brighter, however, it
could increase the amount of noise. Set the
AGC values from 0 to 15.
Brightness: Set the brightness level of the
camera’s image. The range of brightness value is from 0 to 255.
D-WDR: Digital wide dynamic range. You can enable or disable it here. WDR can
adjust the camera to provide a better image when there are both very bright and
very dark areas simultaneously in the field of the view by lowering the brightness of
the bright area and increasing the brightness of the dark area.
BLC (Backlight Compensation):If BLC is selected, the auto exposure will be set
automatically according to the scene so that the object in a dark scene will be seen
clearly.
EXT: Select to Return to the previous menu or SAVE&END to save all changes.
