1 Configuration
The camera normally provides an optimal picture without the
need for further adjustments. Advanced set-up options are
available in a menu system for getting the best results under
special circumstances.
The camera implements your changes immediately so that
before and after settings are easily compared.
1.1 Menus
1.1.1 Menu navigation
Five keys are used for navigating through menu system.
– Use the up or down keys to scroll through a menu.
– Use the left or right keys to move through options or to set
parameters.
– To close all menus at once hold down the menu/select key
until the menu display disappears or continually select the
Exit item.
Some menus automatically close after about two minutes; other
menus have to be closed manually.
1.1.2 Top level menus
There are two upper level menus: a Main menu and an Install
menu. The menus have functions that can be selected directly
or submenus for more detailed set-up.
– To access the Main menu, press the menu/select button
(center) for less than 1 second. The Main menu appears on
the monitor. The Main menu allows you to select and set-

1.2 Pre-defined modes
There are six pre-defined modes with settings to make
configuration easier. You can select one of the six pre-defined
modes in the Install/Mode submenu. The modes are defined as
follows;
1. 24-hour
Default installation mode to provide stable pictures over a
24-hour period. These settings are optimized for out-of-
the-box installation.
2. Traffic
Capture high-speed objects using default shutter in
variable lighting conditions.
3. Low light
Provide extra enhancement, such as AGC and SensUp to
make usable pictures in low-light conditions.
4. Smart BLC
Settings optimized to capture details in high contrast and
extremely bright-dark conditions.
5. Low noise
Enhancements are set to reduce picture noise. Useful for
conditional refresh DVR and IP storage systems because
reducing noise reduces the amount of storage required.
6. Vibrant
This mode has enhanced contrast, sharpness and
saturation.

1.3 Day/Night switching
The camera is equipped with a motorized IR filter. The
mechanical IR filter can be removed in low-light or IR
illuminated applications by software configuration settings.
If Auto switching mode is selected, the camera automatically
switches the filter depending on the observed light level. The
switching level is programmable. In Auto switching mode the
camera prioritizes motion (the camera gives sharp images
without motion blur as long as the light level permits) or color
(the camera gives color pictures as long as the light level
permits). The camera recognizes IR illuminated scenes to
prevent unwanted switching to color mode.
There are four different methods of controlling the IR filter:
– via Bilinx communication,
– automatically, based on the observed light levels, or
– as part of the programmable mode profile.
1.4 Camera control communication (Bilinx)
This camera is equipped with a coaxial communications
transceiver (also referred to as Bilinx). In combination with VP-
CFGSFT, the camera setting can be changed from any point
along the coaxial cable. All menus can be accessed remotely
giving full control of the camera. With this method of
communication it is also possible to disable the local keys on
the camera.To avoid loss of communication on an installed
camera, the Communication On/Off selection is not available
while using remote control. This function can only be accessed
with the camera buttons. Bilinx communications can only be
disabled using the buttons on the camera.
Disabled camera buttons
When the Bilinx communications link is active, the buttons on
the camera are disabled.
