Below is an explanation for each of the fields on the Configuration tab in the Configuration menu item:
Picture
• Profile: This dropdown box allows the user to select which profile to modify. The 3 options are Day, Night, and
Normal.
• Brightness: This slider is used to adjust playback and recorded video window brightness. The value ranges from 0 to
100. The default value is 50. The larger the number, the brighter the video is. When you input the value here, the
bright section and the dark section of the video will be adjusted accordingly. You can use this function when the whole
video is too dark or too bright. Please note the video may become hazy if the value is too high. The recommended
value ranges from 40 to 60.
• Contrast: This slider is used to adjust playback and recorded video window contrast. The value ranges from 0 to 100.
The default value is 50. The larger the number is, the higher the contrast is. You can use this function when the whole
video brightness is OK but the contrast is not correct. Please note the video may become hazy if the value is too low. If
this value is too high, the dark section may lack brightness while the bright section may over expose. The
recommended value ranges from 40 to 60.
• Saturation: This slider is used to adjust playback and recorded video window saturation. The value ranges from 0 to
100. The default value is 50. The larger the number, the stronger the color is. This value has no effect on the general
brightness of the whole video. The video color may become too strong if the value is too high. For the grey part of the
video, distortion may occur if the white balance is not accurate. Please note the video may not be clear if the value is
too low. The recommended value ranges from 40 to 60.
• Sharpness: This slider is used to adjust the sharpness of the video. The value ranges from 0 to 100. The larger the
value is, the clearer the edges are and vice versa. Note: The higher the value, the higher likelihood of picture noise
occurring. The default value is 50 and the recommended value ranges from 40 to 60.
• Gamma: This slider is used to adjust the gamma of the video. The larger the number, the brighter the video is.
The default value is 50 and the recommended value ranges from 40 to 60.
• Mirror: This radio button allows the user to turn the mirroring feature on or off. Turning mirroring on will mirror the
picture.
