Summary
LILIN 4K Ultra HD IP cameras are one of our Ultra family that use the latest compression technologies, which
allow Triple Streaming of H.264 and JPEG in different resolutions. LILIN’s Triple Streaming technology
transmits digital video at various bit rates and frame rates to suit both high and low bandwidth network
environments.
The Ultra series cameras are equipped with progressive-scan, megapixel CMOS sensors that provide superior
video quality. LILIN’s digital signal processing (DSP) technologies support Wide Dynamic Range (WDR), 3D
noise reduction, Backlight Compensation (BLC), adjustable shutter speed, and privacy masking features.
The built-in intelligent video analytics engine enables audio and motion detection. Other useful features include
two-way audio, SD card recording, mobile device live access, email notification with JPEG snapshots, and
JPEG-to-FTP upload.
The Ultra series cameras, with their latest technologies, provide megapixel H.264 video, outstanding DSP
capacities, built-in video analytics, and built-in PoE support. All cameras in the Ultra family are ONVIF
compliant.
The powerful combination of LILIN Navigator software and IP cameras will maximize your system performance
and deliver an integrated system solution for your migration to IP videos.

Chapter 5-2 Advanced Video/Audio Settings
Chapter 5-2-1 Quality Advanced
In this page, you have access to Exposure, Automatic Gain Control, White Balance Control, etc. Sense Up
allows you to adjust camera sensitivity at night.

Ultra Series IP Camera Start Guide Page19
Video setting options are described as followed:
Exposure Value: adjusts the value of image exposure
WDR: enables or disables Wide Dynamic Range
Back-light Compensation: increases the exposure of objects with insufficient light
Shutter limit: min and max shutter values
White Balance Control: sets white balance configurations for different scenarios including tungsten,
indoor, fluorescents, or outdoor environments, or choose Auto for the camera to automatically switch
between white balance settings
Mirror: flips the video horizontally
Flip: flips the video vertically
Sense Up+
Automatic Gain Control, AGC (Sense Up+): If enabled, this function automatically increases the gain of
the video signal. If AGC cannot obtain enough light, set the option to a higher level. However, the
Sense Up feature may cause motion blur at night
3D Noise Reduction: reduces noise at night
Sense Up: with slow shutter you can capture clearer images at night
Without Sense Up
Sense Up by 3 Frames
Chapter 5-2-2 Sense Up+
Sense Up+ is a low-light and high-sensitivity DSP control that enables outstanding video quality even in low-
light environments. Sense Up+ technology can be used for both black-and-white and/or color video modes. To
enable Sense Up+, first enable Auto Gain Control (AGC). Use Sense Up+ with 3D noise reduction (3D DNR)
can reduce noise that occurs in low light environments. AGC and 3D DNR do not cause motion blur. If the
picture is still too dark under the environment, turn on Sense Up instead, which, however, may cause motion
blur in low-light conditions.

Ultra Series IP Camera Start Guide Page20
Chapter 5-2-3 Day/Night Mode Switch
The Day/Night Mode Switch allows you to schedule IR activities by (1) auto, (2) day, (3) night, (4) schedule, or
(5) external control. When the setting is set to Auto, the IR module is turned on/off automatically according to
the signal from the light sensor. The Night setting removes the IR cut filter, and the Day setting keeps the filter
on. If you choose Schedule, the filter turns on/off according to the set time period.
