BACKLIGHT COMPENSATION (BLC)

If a bright backlight is present, the subjects in the picture may appear dark or as a silhouette. Backlight compensation enhances objects in the center of the picture. The system uses the center of the picture to adjust the iris. If there is a bright light source outside of this area, it will wash out to white. The camera will adjust the iris so that the object in the sensitive area is properly exposed.

There are two backlight compensation settings:

ON	Backlight compensation is activated.
OFF (default)	Backlight compensation is not activated.

If backlight compensation is ON, decrease the Auto Iris setting and adjust the Auto IR Level to a darker setting. Refer to the Auto Iris and Auto IR Level sections.

VIDEO LEVEL

Set the video output to one of the following:

NORMAL	1.0 volt peak-to-peak
HIGH (default setting)	1.2 volt peak-to-peak to compensate for losses in video cable.

WIDE DYNAMIC RANGE (23X DAY/NIGHT CAMERA)

The wide dynamic range (WDR) setting balances the brightest and darkest sections of a scene to produce a picture that is better balanced in lighting and provides more detail. The range from the darkest to the brightest sections of the scene is 80X more when WDR is ON than when OFF.

Available settings are OFF and ON. The default setting is OFF. When wide dynamic range is set to ON the frame rate is reduced from the standard 30 frames per second to 15 frames per second.
