MANUAL Use manual mode only in environments with the exact
same amount of light throughout the day. We
recommend using the automatic mode even under such
conditions.
MODE = SHUT + AGC: you can set the shutter speed
and AGC as specified below:
 SHUTTER: set the shutter speed between 1/50 and
1/10000. The slower the shutter speed, the brighter
the image. Faster shutter speeds are used if you want
to capture fast moving objects with less motions blur.
 AGC: set the AGC between 6 and 44.8 dB.
Note: If the scene becomes brighter or dimmer, the
camera will not adjust and the image may be over- or
underexposed.
7.3 White balance
Use this menu options to define the white balance adjustment.
Display: WHITE BAL
ATW
ATW = auto-tracking white balance. White balance
makes sure that white objects are always reproduced
correctly. The ATW option controls the automatic white
balance adjustments. For most environments, the default
settings are sufficient.
 SPEED: controls how fast the camera will adjust the
white balance. At high settings this can result into
colour oscillation.
 DELAY CNT: specifies how often the camera checks
for colour changes and applies the ATW settings. The
lower the delay count, the more frequent the checks
and adjustments.
 ATW FRAME: sets the frame magnification for the
camera to identify the colour changes (the
recommended setting is 1.0.).
 ENVIRONMENT: choose INDOOR for indoor
environments, and OUTDOOR for outdoor
environments.
PUSH This is a fixed setting for white balance.
