setting.
Parameter
Note
Style
It is to set the picture style, which includes standard, soft and vivid.
Brightness
It is to adjust the image overall brightness via linear adjustment mode. The
larger the number is, the brighter the picture is, and on the contrary it is
opposite. The picture get blurry easily when the value is set too big.
Contrast
It is to adjust the picture contrast. The bigger the value is, the bigger the

value is set too big. The picture becomes blurry when the value is set too
small.
Saturation
It is to adjust the color darkness and lightness. The color becomes darker
when the value is bigger; on the contrary it becomes lighter. The value
causes no influence to the overall brightness of the image.
Sharpness
It is to adjust the sharpness level of the picture edge. The bigger the
sharpness value is, the more obvious the image edge becomes, the image
is likely to generate noise more easily when the value is set too big.
Gamma
It is to change image brightness and improve the dynamic display range of
the image via nonlinear adjustment mode. The bigger the value is, the
brighter the picture becomes, and on the contrary it is opposite.
Mirror
After mirror is enabled, the monitoring image will be displayed invertedly.
Flip
It is to change the display direction of the monitoring image.

Step 2
It is to set the exposure parameter, please refer to the following sheet for more details.
Parameter
Note
Anti-flicker
You can switch to exposure mode when it is in outdoor mode,
it can realize the result in the corresponding exposure mode.
50Hz: When the current is 50Hz, system can auto adjust the
exposure according to the environment brightness in case
there is any stripe.
60Hz: When the current is 60Hz, system can auto adjust the
exposure according to the environment brightness in case
there is any stripe.
Mode
It is the camera exposure mode.
Note:
When “Anti-flicker” is “Outdor”, the “exposure mode” can be
set as “gain priority” or “shutter priority” mode.
Different devices have different exposure modes; please refer
to the actual interface.
It includes the following options:
Auto: It can auto adjust the image brightness according to the
environment.
Gain priority: The device can auto adjust according to the gain
range which is set by priority during normal exposure range
according to the different scene brightness. The device will
auto adjust shutter value if the image brightness fails to reach
the effect and the gain value has reached to upper limit or
lower limit, which is to make the image reach the best
brightness.
Shutter priority: The device can auto adjust according to the
shutter range which is set by priority during normal exposure

Note
range according to the different scene brightness. The device
will auto adjust shutter value if the image brightness fails to
reach the effect and the shutter value has reached to upper
limit or lower limit, which is to make the image reach the best
brightness.
Manual: It is to manually set gain value and shutter value,
adjust the the displayed brightness of the image.
3D NR
It is to process the image with multiframe (at least two frames), it
can realize noise reduction of the image by using the interframe
information between the previous and latter frame.
Grade
It can set the parameter when “3D NR” is enabled.
The bigger the grade is, the better NR effect it can realize.
Step 3
Click “Save” to complete the parameter configuration of camera exposure.
3.1.1.3 Backlight
Backlight mode can be divided into BLC, WDR and HLS.
BLC: it can avoid cucoloris phenomenon of the darker area in the backlight environment.
WDR: It can suppress the overbright area and compensate darker area by enabling WDR, which
can make the overall image clear.
HLC: It is to weaken the high light, which can be applied in the areas such as toll gate, entrance
and exit of the parking lot and etc. As for extreme light, it can snapshot the human face in the
dark environment and it can realize better effect for the details of the plate number.
Step 1
Select “Setting > Camera > Condition > Backlight”, the system will display the interface of
“Backlight” which is shown in Figure 3-3.

Figure 3-3
Step 2
Set the backlight parameter.
When the “Mode” is set as “Scene Self-adaptation”, the system will auto adjust the image
brightness according to the environmental brightness, which is to make the object display
clearly in the scene.
When the “Mode” is set as “BLC”, it can select default mode or customized mode.
When selecting “Default” mode, the system can realize auto exposure according to the
environment, which is to make the image in the darkest area clear to be seen.
When selecting “Customized” mode, the system can realize exposure upon the
selected area after it set customized area, which is to make the image of the selected
area reach appropriate brightness.
When the “Mode” is set as “WDR”, it will lower the brightness of the area with high
brightness and enhance the brightness of the area with low brightness, which is to make the
objects in both high brightness and low brightness area display clearly.
Note:
There may be video loss of a few seconds when the camera is switched from non WDR mode to
WDR mode.
When the “Mode” is set as “HLC”, the system will constrain the brightness of the area with
high brightness and decrease the size of the halo area, which is to lower the brightness of
the whole image.
Step 3
Click “Save” to complete the configuration of the backlight mode.

3.1.1.4 WB
WB is used to restore the white object in the scene by the camera, after WB mode is set, it can
make the white object look white in different environments.
Step 1
Select “Setting > Camera > Conditions > WB”, the system will display the interface of “WB”, which
is shown in Figure 3-4.
Figure 3-4
Step 2
Set WB mode.
When the “Mode” is set as “Auto”, the system can auto compensate white balance upon
different color temperatures, which is to make the image color normal.
When the “Mode” is set as “Natural”, the system can auto compensate white balance to the
scene without artificial light, which is to make the image color normal.
When the “Mode” is set as “Street Lamp”, the system can auto compensate white balance to
the outdoor scene at night, which is to make the image color normal.
When the “Mode” is set as “Outdoor”, the system can auto compensate white balance to the
most outdoor scenes with natural light and artificial light, which is to make the image color
normal.
When the “Mode” is set as “Manual”, it can manually set the value of red gain and blue gain;
the system can compensate the different color temperatures in the environment according to
the settings.
When the “Mode” is set as “Regional Custom”, it is to set customized area, the system can
compensate white balance to different color temperature of the images in the area, which is
to make the image color normal.
