Programming
Once the camera hardware has been installed, the camera can be configured
using the built-in OSD button (if supported) and the TVI DVR menu. The TVS-
C200 controller (Service Tool) does not support the 3MPX cameras.
You can also configure the camera settings via a TVI DVR. Select the PTZ
protocol TruVision Coax and click the menu button to call up the menu.
When using the TVI output, the 3MPX TVI cameras must be used with the higher
resolution (3MPX or higher) TVI DVRs. They are not compatible with lower
resolution TVI DVRs. Only the 960H/CVBS output is supported by the lower
resolution recorders (TVR 12HD/TVR 44HD).
Note: When making adjustments to the motorized lens bullet, it is important to
make sure that the access cover for the area that contains the video test cable
connector, OSD menu button, and the 960H/TVI selection switch is properly
tightened to prevent leakage. The access cover should be rotated until it is tight,
up against the camera body.

BRIGHTNESS Brightness refers to the brightness of the image.
Set the brightness value from 1 to 10 to darken or brighten the image.
The higher the value, the brighter the image.
EXPOSURE MODE Select GLOBAL, BLC or WDR from the menu.
GLOBAL:This is the normal exposure mode to use for a wide range
of situations to achieve an optimum image.
BLC: BLC (Backlight Compensation) improves image quality when
the background illumination is high. It prevents the object in the
center of the image from appearing too dark. Set the LV value from 1
to 8 to increase the backlight compensation level
LV (level of backlight compensation) is only available when the BLC
mode is selected.
WDR: WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) provides clear images when
there are both very bright and very dark areas on the image. WDR

balances the brightness level of the whole image.
GAIN This optimizes the clarity of image under poor lighting conditions. Set
the gain as HIGH, MIDDLE, or LOW. The higher the gain value, the
clearer the image. Select OFF to disable the function.
Note: The noise will be amplified if the gain is enabled.
FLICKER MODE This is an anti-flicker function that is used when the camera is close
to a light source.
There are two modes that can be selected: MODE1 and MODE2.
MODE1: It is used in a normal situation that is set to default.
MODE2: It is used when the camera is close to a light source.
Note: This function is only available for motorized VF lens cameras
(TVB-2408/4408 and TVT-2402/4402).
WB (White Balance)
White balance (WB) tells the camera what the color white looks like. Based
on this information, the camera will then continue to display all colors correctly
even when the color temperature of the scene changes such as from daylight
to fluorescent lighting, for example.
Set the WB mode to ATW or MWB.
ATW Use ATW (automatic tracing white balance) to automatically adjust
the WB in real time as the lighting conditions change.
MWB Manually adjust the color temperature to meet your own requirements
by modifying the blue and red gain parameters. Only use this function
when there is steady light.
Set the R GAIN and B GAIN values from 0 to 255 to adjust the
shades of red and blue color of the image.

where light levels are always good.
Set the DAY/NIGHT mode as Color, B/W, or SMART.
COLOR The camera is always in day mode. The image is in color. Use this for
normal lighting conditions.
B/W The camera is always in night mode. The image is black and white.
The IR LED turns on in low lighting conditions.

CONTRAST
This function enhances the difference in color and light between parts
of an image. Set the value from 1 to 10. The higher the value, the
stronger the contrast.
SHARPNESS This function determines the level of detail of an image. Set the value
from 1 to 10. The higher the value, the clearer and sharper the image
appears.
COLOR GAIN Adjust this function to change the saturation of the color. Set the
value from 1 to 10. The higher the value, the clearer the color of the
image.
DNR DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) reduces noise especially in low
lighting conditions to provide a more accurate and sharper image
quality. Set the value from 1 to 10. The higher the value, the higher
the noise reduction and the clearer the image.
