BLC (Back Light Compensation): In images where a
bright light source is behind the subject of interest, the
subject would normally appear in silhouette. BLC allows
the camera to adjust the exposure of the entire image to
properly expose the subject in the foreground.
SHUTTER Control (Shutter Speed): Could be
adjusted in manual mode from 1/30-1/10000 based on
lighting condition.
Gain Control: Could be adjusted in manual mode,
Analog gain control from 1-16 and digital gain control
from 1-15.
ATW (Auto Tracking White Balance): White Balance
allows the camera to adjust the tone according to the
color temperature of the light source illuminating the
subject. It allows the operator to see objects as they
appear during daylight.
MWB (Manual White Balance): Adjust the red gain
and blue gain manually to produce white accurately
picture.
Day Night Mode:
a. Smart: Provide color image at daytime and black
and white image at nighttime automatically by smart
light sensor and IR-cut.
b. Color: Provide color image both at daytime and
nighttime.
c. B/W: Provide black and white image both at
daytime and nighttime.
Contrast: Contrast is defined as the separation
between the darkest and brightest areas of the image.
Increase contrast and you increase the separation

between dark and bright, making shadows darker and
highlights brighter. Decrease contrast and you bring the
shadows up and the highlights down to make them
closer to one another.
Sharpness: Sharpness can be defined as edge
contrast, that is, the contrast along edges in a photo.
When we increase sharpness, we increase the contrast
only along/near edges in the photo while leaving
smooth areas of the image alone.
Color Gain: Color gain means saturation, it is similar to
contrast, however instead of increasing the separation
between shadows and highlights, it increases the
separation between colors.
3DNR (Digital Noise Reduction): DNR is a technique
of removing image noise from a video signal by
applying a digital comb filter. It reduces the noise that
can be found in low light images and makes images
clearer. This type of filter is sometimes confused by
motion, resulting in blur trails.
Video Format: PAL and NTSC, its NTSC in USA.
D-WDR: Digital WDR (D-WDR) is a software-based
technique that optimizes image quality by adjusting the
gamma (γ) value to enhance dark areas.
Reset: If you need factory reset all the OSD menu
settings, choose reset option.
Save Exit: Make sure click SAVE EXIT for any setting
change if you need to keep the setting.
Exit: Leave the OSD menu.

How to use OSD to get optimal image
Q: Image not sharp enough?
A: Press OSD toggle, OSD menu—Image Enhance—
sharpness—increase sharpness.
Q: High contrast light conditions?
A: Press OSD toggle, choose BLC (AE-Exposure mode) or
digital WDR (Video Setting-DWDR) based on your needs.
DWDR is not real WDR, it is not perfect but of decent quality.
Q: Too much noise at night?
A: 1. OSD menu—AE—Exposure Mode-Advanced—Lower
gain value
2. OSD menu—Image Enhance—increase DNR value
Side effect:
Lower gain value make the image a little darker.
High DNR may cause motion blur.
Q: Need colorful image at night?
A: If there is enough ambient light and you want to see colorful
image at night, OSD menu—day/night—mode—color.
IR light could NOT be turned off by OSD menu, it could be
turned off automatically if ambient light is bright enough.

*Stated maximum IR range is based on ideal conditions in typical
outdoor environment. Actual range and image clarity depends on
installation location, viewing area and light reflection / absorption
level of object.
Trouble Shooting
a. No picture or only black and white picture after
applying power
(i) Check all plugs and cables are securely connected
to the proper connectors.
(ii) Ensure your power supply is providing the correct
voltage and current.
(iii) Ensure switch the camera video output mode to
correspond your DVR video type.
(iv) Ensure yourAHD DVR is 1080P or 1080N, CVI and
TVI DVR is 1080P.
b. The picture has ripples
(i) Check to see if the power supply is experiencingAC
ripple, if so a filter may be required.
(ii) Determine if the monitor is faulty.
(iii) Determine if other peripheral equipment is causing
ripple and if so make the necessary adjustments.
c. The picture appears smeared
(i) The power supply voltage level may be unstable,
therefore, try another power supply.
(ii) Ensure the cables are correctly connected and/or
the cables are of the correct impedance.

d. The picture background continuously changes
color
(i) A fluorescent lamp's magnetic field may cause color
roll, therefore, reduce the number of fluorescent
lamps or increase the distance between the camera
and the lamps.

Q: Is there a way to turn off the IR? I have sufficient light at
night and would prefer that the IR not come on at all.
A: There is NO switch to turn off the IR led, the light sensor
detect ambient light and turn on/off the IR led automatically.
If there is sufficient light at night and you would prefer color
image, then press OSD joystick to start On-Screen-Display,
choose DAY/NIGHT and switch COLOR mode, but the IR light
will be on if the ambient light is not bright enough.
2 Ways to avoid the IR light:
1. Make the ambient light bright enough and the light sensor
could turn off IR led.
2. Stick opaque black material on the glass to hide the IR light.
