The state of the auto-iris is displayed on a color 
panel which has six different states: 
  “Disabled”:  the  auto-iris  is  either 
disabled  by  un-checking  the  “Enabled” 
check box, or is not present. 
  “Evaluating”: the camera is preparing to 
close the iris. 
  “Too  Dark”:  the  camera  cannot  close 
the iris because the scene illumination is 
too low. 
  “Closing”:  the  iris  is  closing  down  by 
the number of F-stops  appropriate for 
the lens model. 
  “Closed”: the iris is closed. 
  “Opening”: the iris is opening. 
Auto-iris will open the lens fully once the on-
camera analog gains exceed certain level. “Gain” 
scroll bar adjusts the point where the auto-iris 
will open fully: the higher the gain the later will 
the auto-iris open as the illumination diminishes.
