To zoom the image, click the

 button under the 

image.

Click the v/V/b/B symbols at the image edges to 
adjust the camera angle.

When you right-click the camera image window, the 
zoom and angle adjustment buttons disappear and the 
launcher screen appears again.

As described above, right-click the camera image. Zoom 
and angle buttons will appear on the display. Perform the 
adjustment in the preceding section.

If the lens cover is closed, camera adjustment is not 
possible.

Deselect the “Control by Far End” check box in the 
Camera Control menu to reject control of the camera by 
the remote party.

Select whether to adjust the remote camera in “Far End 
Camera Control” under “Dial” of the Communication 
Mode menu.

The brightness can be adjusted with the Camera Control 
menu.
Normally, the brightness is automatically adjusted to 
obtain a optimum level. You can also adjust it manually.
It is recommended that the brightness be adjusted 
automatically.

Only the brightness of the local camera can be adjusted.

To manually adjust the brightness, deselect the “Auto 
Adjust” check box of the “Brightness Adjust” item, and 
then click the   or   button.

Use backlight compensation when shooting a subject 
against a bright background.
To activate backlight compensation, select the “Backlight 
Compensation” check box.
For the local camera, backlight compensation can also be 
switched on and off by clicking  , which appears when 
making camera adjustments during communication or 
from the launcher menu.

If “Auto Adjust” is not selected for “Brightness Adjust”, 
backlight compensation will not function.

If a fluorescent lamp is connected to the same power 
source as the PCS-TL33, flicker may occur in the camera 
picture. 
To eliminate the flicker, select the “Flicker Removal” 
check box.

In the default condition, white balance is adjusted 
automatically.
If you want to adjust white balance manually, select the 
“Adjust” check box. While draping something white, such 
as a piece of paper, in front of the camera, click “Start” and 
set the white balance to fit the ambient environment. The 
white balance will then be fixed to that setting.

To release the fixed setting
Select the “Auto” check box under “White Balance”.
