Gain, measured in decibel (dB), is the amount of amplification applied to the image. A high gain may provide a better image in low
light but will increase the amount of image noise.
Set Gain to:
• Auto to set the gain automatically. If required, use Max gain to limit the applied gain.
• Fixed to use a fixed gain.
Example
If storage space or bandwidth is limited, try using a lower gain. This will reduce image noise and produce smaller image files.
