Camera Settings

This page provides access to the image settings for AXIS Q1755/-E.

Image Appearance

Brightness - The image brightness can be adjusted in the range 0-100, where a higher value produces a brighter image. Sharpness - Controls the amount of sharpening applied to the image.

IR cut filter - Set this filter to Off to allow the camera to 'see' infrared light, making the image clearer in low light condi- tions, e.g. at night. If set to Auto, the camera will automatically switch between IR cut filter On and Off, according to the cur- rent lighting conditions.

Rotate image - AXIS Q1755 is designed to be installed with the logotype facing down but if the installation requires another position, the image can be rotated to the correct orientation. Select the appropriate value from the drop-down list. Please see

the online help files for a description of each available setting.

White balance

This is used to compensate for the different colors present in different light sources, to make the colors in the image appear the same. AXIS Q1755/-E can be set to automatically identify the light source and compensate for its color. Alternatively, the type of light source can be manually selected from the drop-down list.

Exposure Settings

Configure the exposure settings to suit the image quality requirements in relation to lighting, frame rate and bandwidth considerations.

Enable Backlight compensation - Backlight compensation makes the subject appear clearer when the image background is too bright, or the subject too dark.

Exposure control - this setting is used to adapt to the amount/type of light being used. Available settings are Manual Shut- ter, Manual Iris or Manual where all settings are available.

Max exposure time - this setting defines the max exposure time if Exposure control is set to Auto. Once satisfied, click Save. Click View to view the video stream with the current configuration.

Please see the online help files for a description of each available setting.
