AXIS P3367–VE Fixed Dome Network Camera
Video and Audio
Auto to set the shutter speed automatically. If required, use Max shutter to limit the shutter speed to prevent the frame
rate from being reduced. For example, to get 30 fps, set Max shutter to 1/30.
Fixed to use a xed shutter speed.
Gain, measured in decibel (dB), is the amount of amplication applied t o t he image. A high gain may provide a better image in low
light situations but will increase the amount of image noise.
Set Gain to
Auto to set the gain automatically. If required, use Max gain to limit the applied gain.
Fixed to use a xed gain.
When Shutter and Gain are both set to Auto, it is possible to set the Priority between low motion blur and low noise manually and to
use a different Priority in Normal Light and in Low Light.
Example
Consider an area where people or vehicles move during the day, but where there should be no movements during night. To be able to,
for example, re c ognize faces or license plates, m ove the normal light priority slider toward low m otion blur. At nighttime, motion
detection is more important than identication. Motion blur is acceptable and since low light can cause a lot of noise, move
the low light priority slider toward low noise.
Example
If storage space or bandwidth is limited, try using a lower ga in. This will red uce image noise and produce smaller im age les.
Iris adjustment
Select Enable automatic iris adjustment to au tomatically compensate for c hanging light conditions . This option is not avai lable
if a xed iris is used.
Use the Iris adjustment slider to set the preferred F-value. The scale represents the amount the iris is open. If set to 0, the iris
is opened as much as possible. If set to 100, the iris is closed as much as possible. The actual F-value is shown below the
slider. If automatic iris adjustment is enabled, the iris will stay at this pos
ition as long as light conditions are favorable. If light
conditions change, the iris will adjust itself to the best iris settings. If automatic iris adjustment is disabled, the iris will lock on
the set position regardless of light conditions
Day/Night
The IR cut lter prevents infrared (IR) light from reaching the image sensor. In poor lighting conditions, for example at night, or
when using an IR lamp, set the IR cut lter to Off. This increases light sensitivity and allows the product to “see” infrared light. The
image is shown in black and white when the IR cut lter is off.
If using a utomatic Exposure control,settheIRcutlter to Auto to automatically switch between On and Off accordingtothe
lighting conditions.
If using IR illuminations, select Enable focus adjustment for IR illumination.
View Areas
A view area is a cropped part of the full view. Each view area is treated as a video source in Live View and has its own video
stream and P TZ settings.
To enable view areas, go to Video & Audio > Camera Settings and select Enable View Areas.
When setting up a view area it is recommended that the video stream resolution is the same si ze as or smaller tha n the view area
size. Setting the video stream resolution larger than the view area si ze implies digitally scaled up video after sensor capture,
requiring more bandwidth without adding image information.
To add a new view area:
1. Go to Video & Audio > View Areas.
