Setting the Chroma Level
Setting Backlight Compensation
44
The chroma level controls the color saturation of the image.
To set the chroma level:
1. Select 5 Camera Options
2. Select a value between 0 and 255 where:
•
0 = picture has no color
•
255 = picture color is saturated
•
127 = default
Note
Setting the chroma level to a value other than 127 may upset auto
white balance (AWB) operation.
Backlight compensation (BLC) corrects for strong background lighting by
enhancing subjects in the foreground, providing detail that would normally be
silhouetted.
You can turn backlight compensation on or off by using special preset 93 when
the dome is configured for MAXPRO-mode/VCL/VCL UTC/Pelco P/Pelco D
protocol.
Note
In most applications, wide dynamic range may be a better option than
backlight compensation.
To enable/disable backlight compensation:
1. Ensure that auto exposure is enabled (preset 92).
2. Enter preset 93 on your controller or go to the OSD main menu (preset 90)
and select 5 Camera Options
ON or OFF (default).
