SW1-4: AWB (Auto White Balance)/MWB (Manual White Balance)

Auto white balance is enabled by default (ON).

To manually set and lock the white balance:

1.Set SW1-4 to ON.

2.Hold a white background in front of the lens until the video shows all white.

3.While holding the background in place, set SW1-4 to OFF. A green block and a white block alternate briefly on the video image until the manual white balance process is complete.

SW1-5: Fluorescent/General

Enable this option to adjust the camera for best operation under fluorescent lighting.

Set to OFF for fluorescent lighting. Set to ON for general lighting. The default is ON.

NOTE: If you use fluorescent operation, you should use AC line lock for best results.

SW1-6: General WDR/Maximum WDR

Maximum WDR supports about 36 dB of additional dynamic range over a standard camera. Use it for installations that require the maximum WDR.

General WDR supports about 20 dB of additional dynamic range over a standard camera. Use it for installations that do not require the maximum WDR.

Set to ON to select maximum WDR. Set to OFF to select general WDR. The default is ON.

SW1-7: DSS (Digital Slow Shutter)

The default shutter speed for NTSC is 30 frames per second (fps). It is 25 fps for PAL. This is also known as SENS 2X.

You can decrease the shutter speed to 7.5 fps (NTSC) or 6.25 fps (PAL). This is known as SENS 8X, which improves low light sensitivity.

Set to ON to select SENS 2X. Set to OFF to select SENS 8X. The default is ON.
