Advanced programming
Camera menu
The dome is ready to operate with its default settings. The defaults are optimized for general applications. You can
customize the dome's performance for advanced applications by changing the dome's camera features in the
Camera menu. One camera feature, however, is adjusted with the keys on your keypad. Backlight compensation is
adjusted with the iris control key, while you are in auto exposure mode. Backlight compensation can also be
adjusted through the programming of individual presets and tours.

Privacy Masks page
Privacy masks let you conceal sensitive areas (such as neighboring windows) to protect them from view on the
monitor screen and in the recorded video. You can create 24 privacy masks (numbered 1 to 24) per dome. A
maximum of eight privacy masks can be displayed at one time.
