5. OSD Menu
5.1. LENS (Default: MANUAL)
Choose either DC (auto iris) or MANUAL lens depending on which you intend to use with the camera.
5.1.1. DC (auto iris)
DC is for when DC Auto iris Vari-focal lens is installed
• INDOOR: Optimized for an indoor environment.
• OUTDOOR: Optimized for an outdoor environment.
• DEBLUR: The shutter is set to fixed values to remove any appearance of blur.
5.1.2. MANUAL
MANUAL yields the best image when a fixed lens is installed.
5.2. FOCUS ASt.
Focus Assist function is useful to set the focus on video.
There are three status bars for short range, middle range and long range. Shows exactly how focus
is set. When green bar with yellow bar appears on columns, focus the lens NEAR or FAR. The
maximum yellow bar indicates the best focusing position.
5.3. EXPOSURE
5.3.1. BRIGHTNESS
Adjusts the brightness of video (0~20).

5.3.2. SHUTTER
Selects AUTO, Manual of Flickerless.
If SHUTTER is set to MANUAL, SENS-UP mode is inactivated.
5.3.2.1. AUTO
Optimizes the video level by controlling the iris and the shutter speed automatically.
• DEBLUR: The shutter is set to fixed values to remove any appearance of blur.
• NORMAL: The shutter is optimized for indoor and outdoor lighting conditions.
5.3.2.2. MANUAL:
Shutter will be set to a fixed value:
5.3.2.3. FLICKERLESS
Flickerless means that a PAL camera can be used in a 60 Hz (or a NTSC camera in a 50 Hz)
light environment without flickering. This mode can also be used to reduce side effects when
the camera is used with fluorescent light environment. This Flickerless Mode may also help
to minimize white balance drift when used in a fluorescent environment.
5.3.2.4. SENS-UP
Automatically detects the ambient level of darkness in a dark or low contrast scene to
extend the accumulated time, keeping the image bright and sharp. It can be set to Off, x2,
x4, x8, x16 or x32.
5.3.3. AGC
The AGC (Auto Gain Control) function is used to amplify the video signal when it falls below the
set parameter. As the AGC level increases, the overall screen gets brighter but the level of noise
will also increase at the same time. AGC levels are (0~10).
NTSC
1/30, 1/60, 1/200, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000,

5.4. BACKLIGHT
When there is a strong backlight behind the object, clear images of the background as well as the object
can still be obtained by using the BACKLIGHT function.
5.4.1. HLC (High Light Compensation)
HLC (High Light Compensation): This function is used to suppress or mask a strong light source
(for example, headlights of cars during nighttime) so that other subjects can be seen in more
detail.
5.4.1.1. LEVEL (0~20)
Sets the HLC level.
It sets the HLC level to determine when the HLC mask will be implemented. The HLC area is
masked with the selected color.
5.4.1.2. COLOR
Select mask color from 9 colors.
Black, White, Yellow, Cyan, Green, Magenta, Red, Blue and Customize.
5.4.2. BLC (Backlight Compensation)
This function is used to brighten an image in the foreground with a highly light area behind it
such as sunlight, limiting the effect of silhouette.
BLC has a target window for compensation and its size and position can be set by H-POS, V-
POS, H-SIZE and V-SIZE.
5.4.2.1. H-POS, V-POS
Sets the position of BLC area to move vertically and horizontally.
5.4.2.2. H-SIZE, V-SIZE
Sets the size of BLC area to move vertically and horizontally.

5.4.3. WDR (Wide Dynamic Range)
The WDR function works to correct excessive light within the frame to produce a usable image.
When the image has simultaneous bright and dark areas, it makes both areas distinct. Video
outputs image processed from two images by dual shutter (long and short shutter) in a field to
provide the best dynamic range. Bright area is compensated by the short shutter and dark area
is compensated by the long shutter.
5.4.3.1. MODE
Selects WDR mode normal or ROI setting.
• NORMAL
WDR function applies full screen.
• ROI (Region of Interest)
Window Zone: Four zones possible.
Window Use: On/OFF
H/V Positions: Sets the position of ROI area to move vertically and
horizontally.
H/V Size: Sets the size of ROI area to move vertically and horizontally.
5.4.3.2. WEIGHT
LOW, MIDDLE, HIGH
Select the WDR level of the camera.
If CVBS video is enabled through ANALOG OUT0 or Sub-out port,
WDR and 3D-NR functions are disabled in all video outputs.
