Figure 42 Exposure Settings

Measurement Window

Measurement Window: This function allows users to set measurement window(s) for
low light compensation. For example, when low-light objects are posed against an
extremely bright background you can exclude the bright sunlight shining through a
building's corridor.
•
Full view: Calculate the full range of view and offer appropriate light compensation.
•
Custom: Manually add customized windows as inclusive or exclusive regions. A total
of 10 windows can be configured.
The inclusive windows have a higher priority. You can overlap these windows. If you
place an exclusive window within a larger inclusive window, the exclusive part of the
overlapped windows will be deducted from the inclusive window. An exposure value will
then be calculated out of the remaining of the inclusive window.
•
Center: This option will automatically add an inclusive window in the middle of the
window and give the necessary light compensation.
•
HLC (Highlight Compensation): Firmware detects strong light sources and
compensates on affected spots to enhance the overall image quality. For example,
the HLC helps reduce the glares produced by spotlights or headlights.

Exposure Control

Exposure level: You can manually set the Exposure level, which ranges from -2.0 to +2.0
(dark to bright) (for IPC model).
Flickerless: Check to reduce flicker in the image.

AE Speed Adjustment

Check Enable AE speed adjustment to apply it in fast changing lighting conditions,
such as a highway lane or entrance of a parking area at night where cars passing by with
their lights on and it can bring fast changes in light levels. It is also applicable to a
situation if the camera is installed
