DISPLAY SETTING MENU

You can determine what shows up on screen as the camera operates. It is
important to consider that whatever text the camera displays will appear in the
video recording as well.
Preset: When enabled, the camera will
display the identity of each preset point as
it cycles through them on the cruise.
Azimuth: This will display the horizontal (X)
and vertical (Y) position of the camera.
Position: An arrow will appear showing
the direction of "up". The camera features
"auto flip" which means that it is moved
past 90° (pointing straight down), the camera will quickly rotate 180° and continue
to move the lens as directed. When the camera does this "flip", the arrow will point
down indicating that directions are essentially reversed in this position.
Zoom Display: Shows the level of the optical zoom (up to 23x)
Inside Temp: This camera is equipped with an automatic heater/blower for extreme
temperatures. Temperatures below -40° can negatively effect operation.
Title Display: Not supported on this model.

CAMERA SETTING MENU

These settings allow you to adjust your camera's video. Unlike alterations to the
display settings made on the DVR, these will have an effect on the recorded video.
There are two "pages" of options in this menu (shown below).
White Balance: Adjust this setting to
best fit the lighting conditions where your
camera is mounted. Your options are:
Automatic, Manual, ATW (Auto Trace
- camera monitors white areas and
automatically adjusts), Outdoor and Indoor.

AUTO EXPOSURE (AE) MODE: Select from auto, manual, AV (iris priority), or TV
(shutter priority).
GAIN SETTING: This adjusts the exposure, but may introduce "noise" in the image.
SHUTTER: Adjusts shutter speed to allow more light (slower) but may create blur. A
faster shutter may cause the image to appear dark.
IRIS: Adjusts the amount of light received. This can be used to compensate for dark
video as a result of a faster shutter speed.
EXPOSURE COMPENSATION: Adjusts brightness in cases where lighting makes
subject too dark or light to be seen clearly.
SLOW AE: In brightly lit areas, this setting can compensate by lowering exposure
speed and enhancing the definition.
SLOW SHUTTER: For poorly lit areas, the camera will compensate by lowering the
auto exposure time.
AUTO GAIN LIMIT: Limits how far the camera will compensate for low light
situations in order to reduce video "noise."
SLOW SHUTTER LOW LIMIT: Limits how slow the camera's shutter can go as it
compensates for low light situations.
NOISE REDUCTION: A digital filter to remove or reduce "noise" in a video.
3D NOISE REDUCTION: An enhanced filter that compares the video over time to
remove "noise."
BLC (Back Light Compensation): The camera will darken areas of bright light in the
image so that foreground objects can be seen more clearly.
WDR ENABLE (Wide Dynamic Range): Adjusts video brightness when the contrast
between light and dark areas is too high. This can be turned on or off in its own
submenu.
AE RESUME TIME: If you normally operate your camera using auto exposure, but
have made adjustments using the menus, you can have the camera revert back to
the auto exposure mode after a set time, or not at all.
Day/Night Setting: You can have the camera automatically switch between day
(color) and night (black and white) video depending on light level. Or, you can have
it set to one mode or the other. Additionally, you can adjust the light level where the
camera will switch modes.
