Configuration
After adjusting settings for the Viewing Window, click Save to enable the settings
and click Close to exit the window. The selected Output Frame Size will immediately
be applied to the frame size of video stream. You can then go back to the Live Video
page to test the new settings.
Sensor Setting: Click Sensor Setting to open the Sensor Setting page. On this
page, you can set the maximum exposure time, exposure level, and AGC (Auto Gain
Control) settings. You can configure two sets of sensor settings: one for normal
situations, and one for special situations such as when using day/night/schedule
mode.
Exposure
• Maximum Exposure Time: Select the desired maximum exposure time based
on the lighting conditions of the area being monitored. Longer exposure times
will improve exposure for dark environments, but may result in moving objects
appearing blurred. The maximum exposure time can be set to 1/120 second,
1/60 second, 1/30 second, 1/15 second, or 1/5 second.
• Exposure level: You can manually set the Exposure level from 1 to 8 (dark to
bright).
• Max. Gain (Auto Gain Control): You can manually set the AGC level to 2X, 4X,
8X, 16x, or 32x. The higher the value, the more gain will be applied and the
brighter the image will be.
You may click Preview to fine-tune the image, or click Restore to recall the previous
settings without saving your changes. When you are finished changing the settings
on this page, click Save to save your changes and click Close to exit the page. If you
