When the camera mode is set to [Manual], you can manually adjust the gain to change the brightness
of the image. When the camera mode is set to [Auto], the camera will automatically adjust the gain. In
such case, you can set an automatic gain control (AGC) limit to prevent the camera from using gain
values above the preset limit.

NOTES
