DIPSWITCH FUNCTION
LL(Line-Lock) OFF/ON
To select the sync mode between Internal Sync.(LL off) and Line-Lock (LL on).
Set the line-lock off, the camera will synchronize to the internal time base. Set
the line-lock ON, the camera’s vertical synchronization can be driven by the AC
signal in the power lines.
Note: Line-Lock sync mode operation is possible only when used with an AC
power source; it is not possible with a DC power source.
The default setting is OFF.
AGC (Automatic Gain Control) OFF/ON
AGC ON: The sensitivity increases automatically when light is low.
AGC OFF: A-low-noise picture is obtained under a low light condition.
The default setting is ON.
Vari-Focal Lens

BLC (Back Light Compensation) ON/OFF
When BLC is turned on, the AGC, ES and IRIS operating points are determined
by averaging over the center area instead of entire field-of-view, so that a
dimly-lit foreground object at center area can be clearly distinguished from
brightly-lit backgrounds.
BLC should not be used unless it is needed to compensate for back-lit.
The default setting is OFF.
FL (Flickerless Function) ON/OFF
When picture flicker fiercely, turn FL on, then the camera will stabilize the speed
of electronic shutter at 1/100(NTSC) or 1/120(PAL) automatically, and reduce
the flicker immediately.
The default setting is OFF
IRIS Level Adjustment
Brightness Level can be adjusted from the IRIS level VR.
Turn counterclockwise to L to get darker picture.
Turn clockwise to H to get brighter picture.
IRIS ALC Adjustment
To select light metering method
Turn the IRIS ALC Adjustment VR counterclockwise forAverage
