    registered for use with RM Viewer. 
    Initial Camera Settings(1) [AE Mode], [Slow Shutter], [Shutter Speed] 
    Set the exposure control and shutter speed for the 
    camera startup. 
    [AE Mode] 
    [Auto] 
    The exposure is controlled automatically. 
    [Auto (Flickerless)] 
    In this mode, video flickers caused by fluorescent 
    lights, etc., can be reduced. The shutter speed is 
    automatically adjusted according to the brightness 
    of the environment in which the camera is used.
    [Auto (Flickerless 2)]
    Use this mode if flickering is not reduced when 
    [Auto (Flickerless)] is selected. However, the 
    automatic adjustment range for the shutter speed is 
    suppressed so as not to exceed 1/100 sec. in this 
    mode, resulting in improper exposure (i.e., 
    excessive brightness) in some cases.
    [Auto (Shutter-priority AE)] 
    In this mode, a desired shutter speed can be 
    specified. 
    [Slow Shutter] 
    Slow shutter can be used only if [Auto], [Auto 
    (Flickerless)] or [Auto (Flickerless 2)] is selected in 
    [AE Mode]. 
    Set the maximum slow shutter time to be used when 
    in auto exposure mode when capturing video in a 
    dark place. Select [Disable], [1/15], [1/8], [1/4] or 
    [1/2]. As slower shutter speed generates residual 
    video when capturing a moving subject, select an 
    appropriate time according to the capture conditions. 
    [Shutter Speed] 
    Shutter speed can be used only if [Auto (Shutter-priority 
    AE) ] is selected in [AE Mode]. 
    Select a desired shutter speed from the 16 levels from 
    [1/2] to [1/ 16000]. When capturing a moving subject, 
    selecting a higher shutter speed can reduce blurry video 
    capture. 
    (2) [Exposure Compensation] 
    The exposure compensation when the camera starts 
    can be set in the range of [-4 (Dark)] to [4 (Bright)]. To 
    brighten the video, set a positive value. To darken the

    [Center-Weighted] 
    The entire screen is metered by focusing on the 
    center of the screen. 
    Even when slightly darker/brighter areas are present 
    on the periphery of the screen, an appropriate 
    exposure can be achieved for the subject near the 
    center. 
    Use this mode if the subject is positioned near the 
    center of the screen. 
    [Average] 
    The entire screen is metered by averaging. 
    A stable exposure can be achieved even in a 
    capture environment where there are notable 
    brightness differences within the screen. 
    Use this mode to stabilize the exposure in locations 
    where vehicles or people are moving. 
    [Spot] 
    The center of the screen is metered. 
    An appropriate exposure can be achieved for the 
    subject at the center of the screen regardless of the 
    brightness/darkness on the periphery of the screen. 
    Use this mode if you want to adjust the exposure to 
    the center of the screen because the subject is 
    receiving a spotlight or backlight, etc. 
    (4) [Focus Mode]
    Set the focus mode when camera starts. 
    [Auto] 
    Automatically brings the subject into focus. Normally

    Note
     Focusing may be difficult for the following types of subjects 
    when [Focus] is set to [Auto] or [One-shot AF]. 
    Subjects Difficult to Focus On
     After rebooting the camera, it is recommended that you check 
    whether the camera is focusing correctly.
     The focus ranges (approximate) are shown in the table below.
    Camera Control 
    (1) [Digital Zoom] 
    Set digital zoom to [Disable] or [Enable]. 
    The higher the digital zoom ratio, the lower the video 
    quality becomes. 
    (2) [AGC Limit]
    Select one of 5 levels from 1 to 5 to automatically set 
    the upper gain limit. The greater the value, the higher 
    the sensitivity becomes. If you do not want to use the 
    automatic gain adjustment, select [OFF]. Setting 
    [AGC Limit] allows you to reduce noise when 
    capturing video in low illumination.
    (3) [Smart Shade Control Strength (Auto)]
    Select [Mild], [Medium], or [Strong] for the control 
    strength when [Smart Shade Control] (p. 47) is set to

    Important
     The initial camera settings (1) to (11) define the defaults that 
    apply when the camera is started. Setting changes will be 
    reflected only after the camera is reconnected or rebooted. 
    Specify the settings used in the actual operating environment 
    from the Admin Viewer (p. 141).
     If the subject is a traffic signal or electronic scoreboard, etc., 
    the captured video may flicker. 
    In this case, try changing the [AE Mode] setting to [Auto 
    (Shutter-priority AE)] and selecting a shutter speed lower 
    than 1/100 to see if the problem improves.
     Even if [AE Mode] is set to [Auto (Flickerless)] or [Auto 
    (Flickerless 2)], some screen flicker may still occur under 
    unstable light source conditions. 
     Setting a slow shutter speed may make it impossible for 
    intelligent functions to work correctly. Select a shutter speed 
    that suits the capture conditions and purpose.
     In conditions where an outdoor scene is captured 
    from an indoor location through a glass window, the camera 
    may focus on the glass surface if there is dust or water there. 
    Install the camera at the shortest possible distance from the 
    glass surface. 
     [Smart Shade Control] cannot be used if [Haze 
    Compensation] is set to [Auto] or [Manual].
     [Haze Compensation] cannot be used if [Smart Shade 
    Control] is set to [Auto] or [Manual].
     If [Auto] is selected for [Day/Night], conduct a thorough 
    operation test to check the effectiveness of the setting 
    beforehand. 
     If [Auto] is selected for [Day/Night], set [Exposure] of the 
    Admin Viewer to [Auto], [Auto (Flickerless)], [Auto 
    (Flickerless 2)] or [Auto (Shutter-priority AE)] (p. 143).
    However, when [Auto (Shutter-priority AE)] is being used, 
    night mode may not be activated even if [Day/Night] is set to 
    [Auto], depending on the shutter speed.
     Though the camera has an infrared filter, there is no effect on 
    lighting due to infrared light as the camera does not have an 
    insertion/removal mechanism for the filter.
     The Day/Night Mode can be switched manually via the Day/
    Night function of the Admin Viewer (p. 144), or via the 
    [External Device Input] (p. 61) or [Timer] (p. 62) settings in

    Select [Mild], [Medium], or [Strong] for the haze 
    compensation strength when [Haze Compensation] 
    (p. 47) is set to [Auto].
    When [Haze Compensation] is set to [Auto] and [Haze 
    Compensation Strength (Auto)] is set to [Strong],

    Mode will be switched when [Auto] is selected in 
    [Day/Night]. Select [Darker], [Slightly Darker], 
    [Standard], [Slightly Brighter] or [Brighter]. Select 
    [Darker] if you want to capture video in color as much 
    as possible.

    [Auto] is selected in [Day/Night]. Select [60], [30], 
    [20], [10] or [5]. 
    The mode will switch between Day Mode and Night 
    Mode if brightness remains above or below the level 
    set in (1) for the number of seconds specified. 
    Select [30] or [60] if brightness changes frequently, 
    such as when a light source passes in front of the 
    camera. Select [5] or [10] if change in brightness is 
    minimal. Installation Conditions

    Select either [Do not return to Home Position] or 
    [Return to Home Position] as the action when no 
    control privileges are requested by users and the 
    home position has already been set. 
    When [Return to Home Position] is selected and no 
    users have control privileges, the camera moves 
    automatically to the home position. This function 
    requires the home position of the camera be set in 
    advance. Set the home position using Preset Setting 
    Tool (p. 96).
