Mode: The Main purpose of this menu is to utilize the above preset and grouping functions. When you click the “Mode” button, the “Mode Setting Dialog” will be activated.

Mode Selection

-Normal Mode: When a user is using PTZ control, another user would normally wait indefinitely until the first user relinquished control. To prevent this, the administrator can select the “Give/Take Mode Enable” and set the time limit for control by each user by checking the left checkbox.

-Swing Mode: This mode is for automatic patrolling between two preset points that are set up in the “New Preset” menu. The VersaCam will move back and forth between the two selected points, resting for the designated number of seconds at each monitoring point.

-Group Mode: By selecting a preset group at the “New Group” menu, a user can select a group he would like to have the VersaCam patrol automatically. There is no resting time setting on the group mode because the preset group has already had this time established through the “New Group” registration.

Internal Settings

BLC Mode Select: This setting controls the backlight compensations (Back Light Control) of the camera. Options include “BLC Off” for no backlight compensation, “BLC” for normal compensation, “Super BLC” for extreme backlight compensation, and “WDR” for Wide Dynamic Range.” Each of these settings is designed to have an effect on how the camera handles very high contrast images. Often this is the result of the subject area including a window with incoming sunlight.

Flickerless Mode Enable: This function prevents the auto-brightness control of the camera from responding to such light sources as fluorescent lamps. Fluorescent lamps are not actually illuminated all the time – they switch on and off at a rate of 60 times per second. This flicker can fool the camera, making the Flickerless Mode necessary to avoid constant changes in image brightness.

Pan/Tilt Reverse Mode Function

This page allows you to reverse Pan/Tilt control functions. This function is useful when a VersaCam 360 is installed upside down.
