4 Setup 
Web client setup support camera, network, time, storage, system and system info view.  
4.1 Camera  
4.1.1 Conditions 
Here you can view device property information. Slight differences may be found due to different network 
camera series. The setups become valid immediately after you set. See Figure 4-1. 
Note: Only motorized zoom lens device has zoom and focus function. 
 
 
Figure 4-1 
Please refer to the following sheet for detailed information.  
Parameter Function  
Profile You may select normal, day and night mode. Then you can set 
and view config and its effect.  
Brightness It is to adjust monitor window brightness. You can adjust this 
value if the video is too dark or too bright. The larger the 
number, the bright the video is. When you input the value here, 
the bright section and the dark section of the video will be 
adjusted accordingly.  Please note the video may become hazy 
if the value is too high.  
The value ranges from 0 to 100. The recommended value 
ranges from 40 to 60. The default value is 50.

Contrast  It is to adjust monitor window contrast. The larger the number, 
the higher the contrast is. You can use this function when the 
whole video bright is OK but the contrast is not proper. Please 
note the video may become hazy if the value is too low. If this 
value is too high, the dark section may lack brightness while the 
bright section may over exposure. 
The value ranges from 0 to 100. The recommended value 
ranges from 40 to 60. The default value is 50. 
Saturation  It is to adjust monitor window saturation. The larger the number, 
the strong the color is. This value has no effect on the general 
brightness of the whole video. The video color may become too 
strong if the value is too high. For the grey part of the video, the 
distortion may occur if the white balance is not accurate.  Please 
note the video may not be attractive if the value is too low.  
The value ranges from 0 to 100. The recommended value 
ranges from 40 to 60. 
The default value is 50.  
Sharpness The value here is to adjust the edge of the video. The larger the 
value is, the clear the edge is and vice versa. Please note there 
is noise if the value here is too high.  
The value ranges from 0 to 100. The recommended value 
ranges from 40 to 60. 
The default value is 50. 
Gamma This threshold value mainly change image brightness via 
nonlinear method and improves dynamic display range. The 
higher this value, the brighter image will be and vice versa. The 
value ranges from 0 to 100. The recommended value ranges 
from 40 to 60. 
The default value is 50. 
Anti-flicker  Outdoor: In this mode, you can switch exposure mode to 
get the effect under the corresponding exposure mode.  
 50Hz: When the current is 50Hz, system can auto adjust 
the exposure according to the environment brightness in 
case there is any strip.  
 60Hz: When the current is 60Hz, system can auto adjust 
the exposure according to the environment brightness in 
case there is any strip.

Exposure 
 
Note: 
Only when anti-flicker is outdoor, exposure mode is available.  
 Auto: 
 The video whole brightness can automatically change 
within the proper exposure range according to the 
different environments. The higher the gain max value 
is, the lower the noise is.  
 Low noise: 
 The video whole brightness can automatically change 
within the proper exposure range according to the 
different environments. The higher the gain max value 
is, the lower the noise is.  
 For the same environments, the noise of the low noise 
mode shall be smaller than the noise of the auto mode.  
 Low motion blur 
 The video whole brightness can automatically change 
within the proper exposure range according to the 
different environments. The lower the exposure max 
value is, the week the tail is.  
 For the same environments, the noise of the low motion 
blur mode shall be smaller than that of the auto mode.  
 Manual

 Auto: The auto white balance is on. System can auto 
compensate the color temperature to make sure the vide 
color is proper.  
 Sunny: The threshold of the white balance is in the sunny 
mode. 
 Night: The threshold of the white balance is in the night 
mode.  
 Customized: You can set the gain of the red/blue channel. 
The value reneges from 0 to 100.   
 Outdoor: White balance threshold sets to outdoor mode.

 Auto: Device auto select to output the color or the B/W 
video according to the device feature (The general bright of 
the video or there is IR light or not.) 
 B/W: The device outputs the black and white video.  
 Sensor input: It is for external connection to IR light to 
control day/night mode. 
Note: Only some non-IR devices support sensor input function. 
Sensitivity It adjusts sensitivity of color and black/white switch. There are 
low, medium and high levels. Default is medium.  
Note: 
Available only when day/night is auto.

make appropriate brightness in selected area.  
 
 WDR 
 For the WDR scene, this function can lower the high 
bright section and enhance the brightness of the low 
bright section. So that you can view these two sections
