FLICKERLESS Set the Flickerless mode On or Off. Some lighting situations may cause the camera image to flicker or pulse. If this situation happens, setting the Flickerless mode to On should resolve the problem.
  • ON - Set the Flickerless Mode On
  • OFF - Set the Flickerless Mode Off
AGC
Automatic Gain Control 		Set the Automatic Gain Control. Lower gain results in a more detailed image, but may not perform will in low light. Higher gain results in brighter image but may introduce video noise.
  • LOW - Set the AGC to Low.
  • MID - Set the AGC to Medium.
  • HIGH - Set the AGC to High.
DSS
Digital Slow Shutter 		Digital Slow Shutter allows the camera to collect light over several frames. The number indicates how many frames are used to create an image. Higher numbers can provide better images in low light, but introduce a delay in the video image update rate and may not be practical for piloting. Higher numbers can work well when the VideoRay is stable, and in low light situations this feature may provide better visual penetration than increasing the brightness of the lights.

If the light level is sufficient, the Digital Slow Shutter will not be employed.

If the Digital Slow Shutter is active and the scene being observed changes from dark to light, the video image will turn white while the camera adjusts. The higher the Digital Slow Shutter setting, the longer it will take for the image to return to normal.
INITIAL Reset this sub-menu to the factory default state. VideoRay uses optimized camera menu settings and the factory default settings should not be used. If you want to reset this sub-menu to the VideoRay optimized settings, use the recommended settings described for this sub-menu.
RETURN Return to the main menu.
