EN Camera Series

Shadow factor is used to calculate the contrast of the Light Sensor A Side to the B Side of the light sensor. Based on this Shadow Factor, the camera’s ADR logic optimizes the camera parameters (exposure time, gain, vtop, vbot, pedestal). Please do not change this value and keep the factory default (See EN to LC Interface Document for the factory default).

•ADR Shutter Max

Based on the light sensor reading, the camera’s ADR (Automatic Dynamic Range Control) optimizes the exposure time of the camera, and this setting is the upper limit of the exposure time range. Normally, a monochrome camera is set to 500 usec, as the FlashHead strobes the light only for 500 usec. A color camera can hold a longer exposure time, but keep in mind that the motion blur is severe if the “ADR Shutter Max” is longer than 1 msec. Increase “ADR Shutter Max” if the night image is too dark and you can accept more motion blur.

•ADR Shutter Min

Minimum or shortest exposure time that the camera ADR control will adjust to. Keep this to the factory default (See EN to LC Interface Document for the factory default).

•ADR Debug Side A

This value is read-only when “Camera ADR Control” is set to “ADR Control (using Light Sensor)”. ENSetup software displays the raw reading of the light sensor A Side value. If “Camera ADR Control” is set to “Debug” mode, you can write an A Side value to simulate the camera ADR. See “Camera ADR Control”.

•ADR Debug Side B

See “ADR Debug Side A”. This is for Light Sensor Side B.

•ADR White-to-Blue Ratio

“ADR White to Blue Ratio” is the ratio between a white plate and blue plate, and is used to optimize the camera parameters. This value is optimized by JAI, and should be kept at factory default. Please do not change it.

•Camera Shutter Mode

This is read-only status. Current setting of camera exposure time (dial). To find out Dial vs exposure time (us) relationship, please see Operational Manual.

•Camera Gain

This is read-only status. Current setting of camera gain.

•Camera Vtop

This is read-only status. Current setting of camera ADC Vtop setting. Normally, Vtop is kept to 255. The value is lowered only if the system needs extra gain in night time (Only 9720EN).

•Camera Vbot

This is read-only status. Current setting of camera ADC Vbot setting. Vbot is kept to 0 at night time. The camera’s ADR logic raises Vbot in sunny daytime to increase the contrast of the license plate.

6.3.2Electronic Shutter

Normally, exposure time is controlled automatically by ADR (Automatic Dynamic Range) control algorithm inside the EN, based on the output from light sensor. However during nighttime installations it is often convenient to manually adjust the shutter time to a larger value so that the focusing targets and vehicle used for setup are easily seen with the available road lighting. Manually adjusting shutter speed can also be useful for certain types of debugging (See Section 7.2, “Problem

2:EN Setup Software Found the Camera, But the Video Image is Too Dark or Just Black,” on page

47).

The following exposure times are supported
