Digital zoom mode Combined mode: After the optical zoom has reached its maximum level, the camera switches to digital zoom mode when zooming in.
Page 24
HARRIER SERIES CAMERA Manual focus mode Focus position can be adjusted by manual only using Far/Near button or Far/Near command. One push trigger: When a Trigger Command is sent, the lens moves to adjust the focus for the subject. The focus lens then holds that position until the next Trigger Command is input.
HARRIER SERIES CAMERA 3. Auto Exposure Exposure mode Auto mode: Full Auto with Auto Iris and Shutter Speed. User can turn on/off AGC and Digital Slow Shutter feature. Iris priority mode: User can set Iris Level, and shutter speed is set automatically according to the brightness of the subject.
HARRIER SERIES CAMERA 4. White Balance Auto mode: This mode computes the white balance value output using color information from the entire screen. It outputs the proper value using the color temperature. (2,300K – 8,000K) One push mode: This is a fixed white balance mode that may be automatically readjusted only at the request of the user (One-push Trigger) ...
HARRIER SERIES CAMERA 10. Privacy Mask Mask can be set on up to 8 places according to Pan/Tilt positions. ※ Only 4 masks are displayed on the CVBS. Individual on/off zone masking settings.

HARRIER SERIES CAMERA 11. Motion detection Instructs the camera to detect movement within the monitoring area and the send an alarm signal automatically. You can set up to 4 MD Window. When the motion is detected in the set frame, the Alarm activates through Alarm ACK and MD-Out port.
Page 30
HARRIER SERIES CAMERA 15. Defect / Spot pixels Spot pixels are caused by pixel sensors (on the image sensor) that have an output which does not accurately represent the incident light on the pixel area. This makes the affected pixel look different to the surrounding pixels.
HARRIER SERIES CAMERA Protocols 1. Timing As Command processing can only be carried out one time in a Vertical cycle, it takes the maximum 1V cycle time for an ACK/Completion to be returned. If the Command ACK/Completion communication time can be cut shorter than the 1V cycle time, then every 1V cycle can receive a Command.
