of the camera.

3. Adjust the camera mechanically until the position of the reference area or the object is aligned with the level grid.
Select scene profile
A scene profile is a set of predefined image appearance settings including color level, brightness, sharpness, contrast and local
contrast. Scene profiles are preconfigured in the product for quick setup to a specific scenario, for example Forensic which is
optimized for surveillance conditions. For a description of each available setting, see The web interface on page 19.
You can select a scene profile during the initial setup of the camera. You can also select or change scene profile later.
1. Go to Video > Image > Appearance.
2. Go to Scene profile and select a profile.
Reduce image processing time with low latency mode
You can optimize the image processing time of your live stream by turning on low latency mode. The latency in your live stream is
reduced to a minimum. When you use low latency mode, the image quality is lower than usual.
1. Go to System > Plain config.
2. Select ImageSource from the drop-down list.
3. Go to ImageSource/I0/Sensor > Low latency mode and select On.
4. Click Save.
Select exposure mode
To improve image quality for specific surveillance scenes, use exposure modes. Exposure modes lets you control aperture, shutter
speed, and gain. Go to Video > Image > Exposure and select between the following exposure modes:
•
For most use cases, select Automatic exposure.
•
For environments with certain artificial lighting, for example fluorescent lighting, select Flicker-free.
Select the same frequency as the power line frequency.
•
For environments with certain artificial light and bright light, for example outdoors with fluorescent lighting at night and
sun during daytime, select Flicker-reduced.
Select the same frequency as the power line frequency.
•
To lock the current exposure settings, select Hold current.
Benefit from IR light in low-light conditions by using night mode
Your camera uses visible light to deliver color images during the day. But as the visible light diminishes, color images become less
bright and clear. If you switch to night mode when this happens, the camera uses both visible and near-infrared light to deliver bright
and detailed black-and-white images instead. You can set the camera to switch to night mode automatically.
1. Go to Video > Image > Day-night mode, and make sure that the IR-cut filter is set to Auto.
