Applies to Models: All Hanwha IP cameras

Summary:

Horizontal, Vertical bars, waves, or banding that appears on the camera live stream is a well-known artifact in CMOS cameras with electronic rolling shutter, horizontal banding (flickering), i.e. brightness intensity variations, are observed when the image is recorded under fluorescent lighting. This is due to sequential exposures of the rows of the image, which leads to different intensities in rows of the image due to the 50 Hz (Europe) or 60 Hz (US) AC power line frequency. This article will walk you through engaging the Anti-Flicker on your camera to correct this problem.

Step By Step Guide:

1. Open your browser

2. Enter the IP address of your camera

3. Press Enter

4. Provide the camera credentials

5. Press Enter

6. Click on the Gear icon at the top of the camera screen (Figure 1)

7. Select Video & Audio on the left (Figure 1)

8. Select the Exposure tab (Figure 1)

9. Click on the drop-down for the Anti-Flicker feature

10. Select 60 HZ

NOTE: In most cases 60 HZ will clear up the flicker since the US power frequency standard is
60 HZ, but in some cases with bad power delivery the 50 HZ selection may work for you

11. Click Apply at the bottom of the screen to save the changes
