SW1-4: Auto White Balance/Manual White Balance
Auto white balance (AWB) 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 is 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 (MWB) process is complete.
SW1-5: Fluorescent/General
Enable this option to adjust the camera for best operation under fluorescent lighting.
Set SW1-5 to OFF for fluorescent lighting. Set it to ON for general lighting. The default setting is ON.
NOTE: If you use fluorescent operation, you should use AC line lock for best results.
SW1-6: General Maximum Wide Dynamic Range
Maximum wide dynamic range (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 SW1-6 to ON to select maximum WDR. Set it to OFF to select general WDR. The default setting is ON.
SW1-7: Digital Slow Shutter
The default shutter speed for NTSC is 30 frames per second (fps); 25 fps for PAL. This is also known as

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 SW1-7 to ON to select SENS 2X. Set it to OFF to select SENS 8X. The default setting is ON.
