3.3.5AE MODE

The exposure is the amount of light received by the image sensor and is determined by how wide you open the lens diaphragm (iris adjustment), by how long you keep the sensor exposed (shutter speed), and other exposure parameters. With this item, users can define how the Auto Exposure (AE) function works.

26x Model:

AUTO

In this mode, the camera’s IRIS and AGC (Auto Gain Control) control circuits work together automatically to adjust the light exposure of Image sensor in order to get consistent video output level. At this condition the shutter speed is fixed at 1/60 (NTSC) or 1/50 (PAL). Users can offset the internal brightness reference level through auto Exposure Comp. to control the brightness of camera. The value of Exposure Comp. is selectable from <0> to <16> and the gain varies from -10.5 dB to 10.5 dB. Each step is 1.5 dB; the Exposure Comp. value <7> is equal to gain value 0 dB. The camera will not compensate for brightness when the Exposure Comp. is set to <OFF>. The default setting is <OFF>.

BRIGHT

The brightness control function adjusts IRIS and AGC gain using an internal algorithm. The brightness is controlled by gain when the light condition is dark and by iris when the light condition is bright.

SHUTTER

With this option, the SHUTTER speed takes main control of the exposure, and both IRIS and AGC will function automatically in cooperation with shutter speed to achieve consistent exposure output.

GAIN

The auto GAIN control function takes main control of exposure with priority over SHUTTER and IRIS. The internal circuit will function automatically to get consistent exposure.

IRIS

With this option, the IRIS function adjusts the exposure in higher property. SHUTTER speed and AGC circuit will function automatically in cooperating with IRIS to get consistent exposure output. The opening of a lens controls the amount of light reaching the surface of the selected device. By increasing the F-stop number (F/1.6, F/2, F/2.4, etc.), less light is permitted to pass.
