Frame Size Control
To control the bandwidth and storage used by the Motion JPEG video stream the maximum frame size can be limited. The
Default option provides consistently good image quality at the expense of increased bandwidth and storage usage whenever
image activity increases. To prevent increased bandwidth and storage usage, set the maximum frame size to a fixed value.

from the drop-down list and click OK.
If the capture mode setting is changed, most other settings, for example view areas, motion detection windows and events,
will be removed or reset. Stop all video streams before you change the capture mode.

trol regulations.
Image Appearance
Brightness - The image brightness can be adjusted in the range 0-100 and is best adjusted depending on the specific
application. A higher value produces a brighter image and the possibility to see details in the darkests parts. A lower value
produces a darker image and the possibility to see details in the brightest parts.
Contrast - Adjust the image's contrast by raising or lowering the value in this field.
Exposure Settings
Configure the exposure settings to suit the image quality requirements in relation to temperature variations in the scene.
Automatic gain control - This setting is used to automatically adjust the gain to an appropriate range, the weaker the image
signal, the stronger the gain. Select the Linear or Equalization automatic gain control method. The latter uses a histogram
equalization method, which adjusts the gain dynamically by distributing the most frequent intensity values.
Exposure zones - This setting determines which part of the image is used to calculate the exposure. For most situations, the
Auto setting can be used, but for particular requirements, check Defined and then click Edit... and select one of the
predefined areas.
