Zoom limit is a user-defined limitation of the zoom amount (Zoom amount=optical zoom× digital
zoom). Take DS-2AF1-762 as an example, if you set the zoom limit as 20, the optical zoom
function will be performed, and if you set the zoom limit to 40, 80, 160, or 320, the digital zoom
function will be enabled then.
Note: The zoom limit function is only supported by a certain camera model series.
Zoom Speed Settings
Purpose:
You can define the speed at which the lens changes from distant view to the close shot.
Steps:
(1) Move the cursor to ZOOM SPEED using the direction buttons and click IRIS+ to enter.
(2) Click up/down direction buttons to choose the speed from HIGH, MEDUIM and LOW.
(3) Click IRIS+ button to confirm.
Slow Shutter.
Slow shutter is for slow down the shutter speed and extends exposure time under low lighting
circumstances to obtain clearer image.
Note: The Slow Shutter function is only supported by a certain camera model series.
IR Cut Filter.
It can be set as AUTO, DAY or NIGHT.
AUTO: The speed dome is capable of automatically switching from Black and White mode
(NIGHT) and Color mode (DAY) regarding to the lightening conditions. It is the default value.
NIGHT (B/W): You can switch the IR cut filter into Black and White mode to increase the lens
sensitivity in low light conditions
DAY (Color): You can switch it to DAY mode in normal lighting conditions.
Note: You can set the IRCUT FILTER value on this menu, and you can call preset 39 to set the IR cut
filter mode to DAY mode and call preset 40 to set it as NIGHT mode. This can only be done after you
set the LED CONTROL to CLOSE from IR PARAMETER.
D/N Level.
The D/N level is the brightness for auto D/N mode switch. As a threshold, IR cut filter switches
between DAY and NIGHT when the light condition reaches the user-defined D/N level. Three
levels are selectable: 0, 1 and 2.
Sharpness:
The sharpness function can increase the auto-gain of the speed dome and sharpen the edges in
the picture to enhance the picture details. You can set the SHARPNESS level from 0 to 15. The
default setting level is 8.
AE Mode
It defines the priority of iris, shutter and gain while the speed dome adjusting the brightness of
the live view. You can set the AE Mode to Auto or Manual. When it is set to Auto, the gain is
adjustable, and if it is set to Manual, the shutter and gain are adjustable.
Shutter
You can set it as 1, 2, 4, 8, 15, 30, 50, 125, 180, 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 4000 or 10000.
Note: The value of X indicates that the shutter speed is 1/X second. If you set the SHUTTER value
bigger (shutter speed is faster), the amount of entering light per second is fewer, and the image is
darker.
Gain

IR Speed Dome User Manual
© Hikvision Digital Technology Co., Ltd. All Rights Reserved.
9
The value of gain indicates the amplification degree of the original image signal. You can set the
value from 0 to 15.
Exposure Compensation Function:
You can set the EXPOSURE COMP value from 0 to 14. The value change can affect the exposure
effect, and the default value is 7.
White Balance:
You can set WHITE BALANCE mode as AUTO, INDOOR, OUTDOOR, SELFDEF (self-defined), ATW
(auto-tracking) and HAUTO (half-auto).
Image Flip:
If you turn the IMAGE FLIP function on, the image will be flipped diagonally along its central axis,
shown as the mirror reflection of the image.
Note: The image flip function is only supported by a certain camera model series.
Focus Limit
You can set FOCUS LIMIT as 30CM, 1M or 3M to make sure that the speed dome focuses on the
target; when you set it as 1M (default), the focus limit will automatically change according to
the lens zooming.
Init Lens
You can turn the INIT LENS on to trigger a spontaneous lens initiation to ensure the normal
operation
Noise Reduction:
There are two options for noise reduction: ON or OFF.
HR Mode
Set the HR MODE as ON to adjust the resolution higher. Switch it OFF to disable the function,
which can avoid cross color of the image.
Contrast:
Adjust the image contrast on CONTRAST submenu to 0-7.
Saturation:
Adjust the image saturation on SATURATION submenu to 0-7.
3.2.3 Configuring the PTZ Parameters
You can configure the Park Time, Image Freeze, Dome Speed, etc. according to the steps in this
session. See Figure 3-7. Enter PTZ configuration menu:

Figure 3-7 PTZ Configuration
Descriptions of PTZ parameter configuration:
Auto-Flip
In manual tracking mode, when a target object goes directly beneath the speed dome, it
automatically rotates (flips) 90 degrees horizontally to track the object, if there is no further
command received, it rotates 180 degrees horizontally, and then move upward straightly.
Proportional PT
When the speed dome is zooming in/out, you can enable the Proportional PT function to
automatically reduce or increase the panning and tilting speed according to the zooming
amount. This function enables the speed dome to trace the object at a proper speed when the
speed dome is zooming and the monitored scene is narrowed (zoom in) or enlarged (zoom out).
The panning and tilting speeds is slower in telephoto state than that of the wide zoom state.
You can set PROPORTIONAL PT to ON or OFF to enable/disable the function.
Note: This function is enabled automatically while setting the patterns.
Park Time
This feature allows the speed dome to start a predefined park action (scan, preset, pattern, etc.)
automatically if there is no control signal received after a period of inactivity (park time). You
can set PARK TIME from 5 to 720 seconds.
Park AC
You can set the park action (PARK ACT) as preset 1-8, pattern 1-4, patrol 1-4, pan scan, day
mode, night mode or none.
Scan Speed
Scan speed defines the scan degree per second of panning scan. Pan scan speed is adjustable
from 1 to 40 degrees per second.
Image Freeze
This feature enables the live view to switch directly from one scene defined by a preset to
another, without showing the transition areas between these two to ensure the surveillance
efficiency. It can also reduce the use of bandwidth in a digital network system.
You can set IMAGE FREEZE on to enable this function.
Note: The image freeze function is only supported by a certain camera model series.
Dome Speed

IR Speed Dome User Manual
© Hikvision Digital Technology Co., Ltd. All Rights Reserved.
11
The manual movement speed can be set as HIGH, MID or LOW.
Limit Stops
If you set the limit stops to OFF, the movement of the speed dome will not be affected even if
you setup the limits.
Limit Setup
Steps:
1. Move the cursor to Limit Setup and click IRIS+ to enter the edit mode.
2. Use the direction button in the PTZ panel to define the area when you see SET LEFT LIMIT
on the screen.
3. Follow the prompts to configure the right, up and down limit stops.
Note: The new limit stops will overwrite the existed ones by default.
Clear Limit
You can clear the defined limit stops. Click IRIS+ to enter CLEAR Limit and click IRIS+ to clear the
stops.
Elevation Angle
Elevation angle is used for adjusting the angle in vertical direction.
Note: The Elevation angle function is only supported by a certain camera model series.
PT Check
PTZ check is used for the auto-position correction when the camera is out of synchronism. It is
set to OFF by default, and usually used in the vibration environment. It is not recommended to
set it ON when there is no synchronism lost.
