DETECT TIME
The camera regularly checks the brightness level. When the brightness level crosses the switch threshold and lasts longer than the
D&N DETECTION setting, the camera switches the filter.
For example, the headlights of a passing car affect the brightness level in the camera, but not long enough for the filter to switch. The constant
light from a cloudy day also affects the brightness level in the camera, long enough for the filter to switch.
Select one of the following options: 5 SEC, 30 SEC. The default setting is 5 SEC.
NOTE: This option is only enabled when the DAY&NIGHT option is set to AUTO.
FILTER LIMIT
In certain lighting conditions, the brightness level may cross the switch threshold quickly. As a result, the camera may constantly switch filters.
Use this option to indicate how often to test the brightness level.
Select one of the following detection test intervals:
OFF: Select this option to test the brightness level continuously, according to the D&N DETECTION setting (5 seconds or 30 seconds).
10 MIN: Select this option to test the brightness level every 10 minutes.
30 MIN: Select this option to test the brightness level every 30 minutes.
The default setting is 10 MIN when the DAY&NIGHT profile is selected. Otherwise, the default setting is OFF.
After the camera switches filters three times, and after the filter limit interval has passed, an asterisk (*) appears next to this setting.
This indicates that the detection test has been performed.
NOTE: This option is only enabled when the DAY&NIGHT option is set to AUTO.
FUNCTION SETTINGS
Select this option to configure the function settings for the C10DN Series camera.
LINE SYNC
Use line synchronization to eliminate the vertical roll that occurs when multiple cameras are connected
to the same switching device. Line synchronization locks each camera to the same frame rate.
Line Sync
Select one of the following line sync options:
AUTO: When using AC power, select this option to operate in line lock mode. This mode
synchronizes the frame rate to the power phase. When selected, you can also
manually set the vertical phase for this camera (refer to V-Phase Adjustment below
and to Camera Synchronization on page 27 for more information).
INT: Select this option to use the internal sync generator.
The default setting is AUTO, except for the GAMING profile, whose default is INT.
NOTES:
When using DC power, the camera always uses the internal synchronization generator.
When you select INT, the V-PHASE ADJ option is disabled.
V-Phase Adjustment
Use this menu to adjust the vertical phase for line synchronization. The range is 0 (zero) to 52 for NTSC cameras and 0 (zero) to 62 for PAL
cameras.
Press the button up or down to adjust vertical phase. When correct, press the center of the button to return to the LINE SYNC menu.
