Ir Function - FLIR CF-5212 User And Installation Manual

Caution:
Noise levels can be compromised when using the 2DNR/3DNR functions.
Attention:
Les niveaux de bruits peuvent être compromis avec les fonctions 2DNR/3DNR.
Advanced Picture Settings with WDR Off
When Advanced Picture Settings are disabled (configured as Off), in addition to 3DNR and 2DNR
settings, the user can configure Backlight Compensation and Gamma WDR from this screen.
Backlight compensation is used in images where a bright light source is behind the subject of interest.
Without backlight compensation, the subject would normally appear in silhouette. The backlight
function of the camera allows it to adjust the exposure of the entire image to properly expose the
subject in the foreground.
Select On or Off. The default setting is Off. Click SET to confirm the new settings.
Gamma WDR, also known as dWDR. resolves high contrast or changing light issues in order to
enhance the image quality. It does this by producing a larger amount of details in both the dark and
bright areas of the image. Such scenes combine areas with different lighting conditions, where some
areas are very bright and others are dark. If this function was not used, the image either would be
overexposed or too bright in bright areas and completely dark in dark areas.
Select On or Off. The default setting On. Click SET to confirm the new settings.

IR Function

The IR Function setting activates the IR Cut (IRC) filter for electronic day/night operation. The
day/night IRC switching mechanism operates according to the ambient light level.
From the Day/Night Function drop-down list, select one of the four settings:
Auto Mode – The camera converts from Day mode (color) to Night mode (monochrome)
automatically at nighttime or in low light conditions. When there is sufficient light, the camera
converts automatically from Night mode to Day mode. This is the default setting.
Night – Activates IR mode (puts camera into monochrome/Night mode).
Day– Deactivates IR mode (puts camera into color/Day mode).
