Introduction
Before programming, ensure that the PTZ camera has the power, control, video
cables correctly connected. For information on installing the PTZ camera, please
refer to the “Truvision Analog PTZ camera Installation Manual” supplied with the
PTZ camera.
The PTZ camera is programmed through the on-screen (OSD) menus. You can
access to the OSD menu of a PTZ camera by using a control device, such as a
keypad, DVRs, etc. For the control cable connection and communication settings
with a control device, please see the correspondent user manual of the control
device.
Power-up action
When the unit is powered up, the PTZ camera will perform a series of self-test
actions. Meanwhile, a splash screen appears that displays important system
information for two minutes, as shown below.
The system information may change depending on user’s settings or models.

automatically focuses. When the camera stops PTZ, the focus remains fixed and
does not focus on moving objects in the image.
4. Click IRIS+ to confirm.
Zoom limit
Zoom limit is a user-defined limitation of the zoom magnification (Zoom times = Optical
zoom × Digital zoom). If the zoom limit is set to its minimum value, the digital zoom is
disabled and the optical zoom function is at its maximum value. If the zoom limit is set to a
larger value, digital zoom is enabled.
To set the zoom limit:
1. Go to MAIN MENU > SYSTEM SETTINGS > CAMERA.
2. Use the direction buttons to move the cursor to ZOOM LIMIT and click IRIS+ to
enter.
3. Click up/down direction buttons to select the limit value.
4. Click IRIS+ to confirm.
Zoom speed
You can define the speed at which the lens changes from full wide zoom to the optical
zoom.
To set the zoom speed:
1. Go to MAIN MENU > SYSTEM SETTINGS > CAMERA.
2. Use the direction buttons to move the cursor to ZOOM SPEED and click IRIS+ to
enter.
3. Click the up/down buttons to select the speed: High (default), Middle, and Low.
4. Click IRIS+ to confirm.
Day/Night mode
There are two parameters available for day/night mode configuration.
1. IR CUT FILTER.
It can be set as Auto, Day or Night.

Chapter 2: Programming
TruVision Analog PTZ Camera Configuration Manual 15
Auto: The PTZ camera can automatically switch between black and white mode (Night)
and color mode (Day) depending on the lighting conditions. This is the default value.
Night (B/W): Switch the IR cut filter into black and white mode to increase the lens
sensitivity in low light conditions
Day (Color): Switch it to day mode under normal lighting conditions.
Note: You can set the IR Cut Filter value from the Camera menu. Call preset 39 to set
the IR cut filter mode to Day mode, and call preset 40 to set it to Night mode.
2. IR cut sensitivity.
The IR cut sensitivity is the light level for auto D/N mode switch. As a dividing line, IR cut
filter switches between Day and Night when the light condition reaches the user-defined
D/N level. You can set the D/N level to 0, 1, or 2.
BLC and WDR functions
There are two parameters available for BLC and WDR configuration on this menu.
To set the BLC and WDR:
1. Go to MAIN MENU > SYSTEM SETTINGS > CAMERA.
2. BLC/DWDR: You can set the value as ON or OFF to enable or disable the
functions.
3. BLC LEVEL: Manually adjust the backlight compensation level.
Note: BLC level configuration depending on the camera model. Some models do
not support a user-defined BLC level.
Exposure mode
AE (automatic exposure) mode defines the priority of the iris, shutter, and gain when the
PTZ camera is adjusting the brightness level during live view.
To set the exposure mode:
1. Go to MAIN MENU > SYSTEM SETTINGS > CAMERA.
2. Use the direction buttons to move the cursor to EXPOSURE MODE and click
IRIS+ to enter.
3. Click the up/down buttons to select one of the four options:
•Auto: Auto iris, auto shutter, and auto gain. The PTZ camera adjusts the
values automatically depending on the lighting conditions. This is the default
mode.
•Iris: This is the iris-priority mode. Define the iris value depending on the
lighting conditions.
•Shutter: This is the shutter-priority mode. Define the shutter speed depending
on the lighting conditions.

Chapter 2: Programming
16 TruVision Analog PTZ Camera Configuration Manual
•Manual: Manually define the iris value, gain value, and shutter speed
depending on the lighting conditions.
Iris value
The IRIS value measures the amount of light entering to the lens. You can set the iris value
from 0 to 17 in response to the changing light conditions.
Note: The iris is fully closed at value 0 and fully open at value 17.
Shutter speed
The speed of the electronic shutter controls the amount of light entering to the lens in a unit
of time (a second). You can manually configure the shutter speed for the PTZ camera, and
you can also enable the slow shutter function for low lighting circumstances.
1. Shutter speed. If you set the SHUTTER value to a higher value (shutter speed is
faster), the amount of light entering per second is reduced and the image becomes
darker. Select one of these values: 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.
2. Slow shutter. Set the SLOW SHUTTER value between 0 and 5. The shutter speed can
automatically slow down to extend exposure time under low lighting circumstances to
obtain clearer image.
Note: Turn on INITIALIZE LENS to trigger an automatic lens initiation and ensure
normal operation.
Gain value
•Gain value: This indicates the amplification degree of the original image signal. You can
set the value between 0 and 15.
•Gain limit: The higher gain value set, the more noise appears in the image. Set the
maximum user configurable gain value between 0 and 15 to limit the gain range and
control noise in the image.
Exposure compensation function
Set the EXPOSURE COMP value between 0 and 14. The default value is 7.
White balance
You can set WHITE BALANCE mode as AUTO, INDOOR, OUTDOOR, CUSTOM (user
defined), ATW (auto-tracking), or SEMI-AUTO (Semi-auto).
Note:In CUSTOM. mode you need to define the value of RED and BLUE.
Image flip
If you enable the IMAGE FLIP function, the image is flipped diagonally along its central
axis, seen as a mirror reflection of the image.

Chapter 2: Programming
TruVision Analog PTZ Camera Configuration Manual 17
Focus limit
Focus limit is the focal length limitation of the PTZ camera. You can configure a longer
focus limit when the target is far away to prevent the PTZ camera from focusing on objects
close to it; or configure a shorter focus limit when the target is near to the PTZ camera, and
prevent it from focusing on objects further away.
Set FOCUS LIMIT to 1CM (default), 30CM, 1M or 3M to ensure that the PTZ camera
focuses on the target. When set to AUTO, the focus limit automatically changes according
to the lens zooming.
Image quality parameters
Sharpness: The sharpness function can increase the auto-gain of the PTZ camera and
sharpen the edges in the picture to enhance the picture details. You can set the
SHARPNESS level between 0 and 15.
Hue: Adjust the CHROMA SUPRESS value between OFF, HIGH, MID and LOW to
suppress the noise in low lighting conditions. If you set the value higher, the hue value and
image noise both increase.
Contrast: Adjust the image contrast in CONTRAST submenu. Select a value between 0
and 7.
Saturation: Adjust the image saturation on SATURATION s submenu. Select a value
between 0 and 7.
Resolution setting: Set HR MODE as ON to reduce the resolution and avoid color
crossing in the image. Switch it OFF to disable the function.
Note: The values of contrast and saturation available vary depending on the camera
models.
Noise reduction
You can set the NOISE REDUCTION function OFF, HIGH, MID or LOW.
HLC (high light compensation)
Set the HLC function level between 0 and 3.
Privacy masking
You can set the privacy mask to cover certain areas from live viewing and recording. The
masked areas can move with the pan/tilt movements and their size can vary automatically
when the lens zooms.
