ꢁꢂꢀAppendix — Glossary  
AREAS  
Programmed start and end points of the dome's field of view around its pan axis.  
Each area is a part of a circular viewing area that extends around the dome. The areas can be different sizes.  
AUTOMATIC GAIN CONTROL (AGC)  
Allows for the amplification of the video signal in scenes with minimal ambient light. Many low-light scenes result in  
picture noise. As gain is increased, the picture noise is also amplified. When AGC is enabled, the value of the gain setting is  
based on feedback from the camera. When AGC is disabled, the camera uses the value set for the manual gain setting. The  
trade-off between picture level and noise may be adjusted when AGC is disabled.  
ON-SCREEN MENU  
The text overlay menu system used for setting dome features. The utility is accessed using a  
keystroke combination. The utility provides settings for camera functions, zoom, alarms, text  
display, and password protection.  
FLIP  
Allows the dome to automatically turn 180 degrees when the camera tilts to its lower limit and stays in that position for a  
brief delay. When the dome flips (rotates), the camera starts moving upward as long as the tilt control is kept in the down  
position. Once the control is released, the tilt control returns to its normal operational mode. The flip feature is useful when  
you need to track someone who walks directly beneath the dome and continues on the other side.  
IR MODE  
A feature of the camera that permits manual or automatic switching between color and IR  
(black-and-white) operation. When IR mode is active, clearer images may be obtained under  
low-light conditions.  
LINE LOCK  
Allows you to phase lock the video with the AC power line. When line lock is enabled, it prevents vertical video rolling  
when switching multiple cameras to a single monitor. If text appears slightly tinted on color monitors, disabling the line  
lock may prevent this problem.  
NAME INFORMATION  
Relates to the display the dome name, the area where the dome is pointing, the name of the preset or pattern that is running,  
and alarm names. The display of each type of name setting can be enabled or disabled. When the display of camera or area  
title(name) is enabled, the information appears on the screen continuously. Preset, tour and pattern titles(names) appear  
only while they are active.  
LOW SHUTTER  
Setting used to improve the quality of video obtained in extreme low-light situations. When the Low Shutter setting is  
enabled, low-light information is collected over multiple fields based on the Shutter Limit setting. As a result, video may  
appear blurred or choppy in extreme low-light situations. This setting does not effect camera operation in normal lighting  
situations. See also Automatic Gain Control (AGC).  
32  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
PATTERN  
A series of pan, tilt, zoom and focus movements from a single programmable dome. Up to 6 patterns may be programmed  
for the dome camera.  
PRESET - PRESHOT  
Programmed video scene, based on a specific pan, tilt, zoom, and focus settings. Up to 128 presets may be programmed for  
the dome camera.  
PRIVACY ZONES  
Masked areas of the dome camera's viewing area. These masks prevent operators of the surveillance system from viewing  
these designated zones. The Privacy Zones move in relation to the dome camera’s pan/tilt position. In addition, the apparent  
size of the Privacy Zone adjusts automatically as the lens zooms in or out. Up to 6 Privacy Zones may be established for a  
dome camera.  
SHUTTER LIMIT  
Setting used to define the maximum exposure time for the Open Shutter setting. The values for the setting range from 1/2 to  
1/60. The default setting is 1/4.  
VECTOR SCAN  
Move from start point to end point including tilt and zoom simultaneously and linearly.  
WDR  
Wide Dynamic Range Technology uses two shutter speeds in alternative video fields-high and normal- every 60th (or 50th)  
of a second and combines two fields into one progressive scan frame. It allows every detail to be captured accurately even  
if one portion of an image is brilliantly. Whether at the high shutter speed or normal shutter speed, the progressive scan  
CCD provides a horizontal resolution of 470 lines. As a result, combined fields yield a frame of high-quality images.  
WHITE BALANCE  
Adjustments in the color hue(red and blue) gains for a camera so that true white appears white in the image. It is normally  
compensated for by the automatic gain control. In some lighting conditions, you may need to manually adjust the red and  
blue settings for optimal viewing. When Automatic White Balance is enabled, the camera measures the image and  
automatically adjusts the red and blue settings to balance white. When Automatic White Balance is disabled, the camera  
uses the values set for the red and blue settings to balance white.
