OTK / Ironpixel Y & B IP Cameras — Adjusting the Image
How to adjust the picture on an OTK IP camera — brightness, colour, sharpness and noise reduction — from the camera’s own web interface.
Where the settings live
Log in to the camera’s IP address in a browser (not the recorder), then go to:
The Image Setup page - menu on the left, live view in the middle, image controls on the right.
Everything below is on that page. Changes apply immediately — there is no save button for the sliders, so adjust while watching the live image.
Pick the profile first
At the top of the panel is Day-Night Mode. The profile you choose here is the one your slider changes are saved into:
| Profile | What it affects |
|---|---|
| Day profile | The daytime / colour image only |
| Night profile | The night / infrared image only |
Day-Night Mode sits above the sliders - set it first.
The Basic sliders
All five default to 50. Move one at a time and in small steps — 5 to 10 points is usually enough.
| Setting | Raise it when… | Lower it when… |
|---|---|---|
| Brightness | The scene is too dark overall | The image looks washed out or milky |
| Saturation | Colours look flat or grey | Colours look unnatural or oversaturated |
| Sharpness | Edges and plates look soft | You see halos or crunchy edge artefacts |
| Contrast | The image looks hazy or low-punch | Shadows go solid black or highlights blow out |
| DeNoise | There is grain / speckle in low light | Moving subjects smear or leave trails |
Exposure
Below Basic is an Exposure section (click to expand). Use that rather than Brightness when the problem is a bright window, headlights, or a backlit doorway — raising Brightness only lifts the whole frame and makes the blow-out worse.
