6.4.4. BACKLIGHT Menu

Back Light Compensation (BLC, default) clarifies objects in front of bright light. For
example, in a scene with lighting facing the camera, if a person walks toward a
normal camera, they will appear as a silhouette, but BLC will adjust contrast for
more detail. BLC is ideal where the field of view is focused close to the camera.
High Light Compensation (HLC) blocks bright light from causing white-out. For
example, with HLC, car headlights will appear to be blacked out and surrounding
light levels will be balanced enough to reveal details that would normally be
washed out. HLC is ideal for a wide field of view focused far from the camera.
Use MASK SKIP to define where BLC/HLC is active; for example, where bright light
only disrupts the top or bottom of a scene.
• Move the joystick left or right to select HLC or BLC and enter its sub-menu.
6.4.4.1. BLC (Back Light Compensation) Setup
• AREA SEL — Select AREA1 or AREA2 to adjust BLC values for that area.
• AREA STATE — Set BLC to OFF or ON in each area.
• GAIN — Adjust the level of BLC from 0~255.
• Set the BLC area by adjusting HEIGHT, WIDTH, LEFT/RIGHT, and TOP/BOTTOM.
6.4.4.2. HLC (High Light Compensation) Setup
• LEVEL — Adjust from 0 to 255. The larger the value, the more the camera will
black out light sources.
• MODE — Set to ALL DAY or NIGHT ONLY mode. NIGHT ONLY mode turns off HLC
unless the color mode is in black and white (BW).
• MASK SKIP — Turn ON and enter the sub-menu (not pictured) to size and position
the square MASK SKIP area.
