Change the Low Light settings for an Essential Spotlight Camera
Your Essential Spotlight Camera’s spotlight is set to automatically turn on when your camera
detects motion at night. The spotlight improves video quality and allows your Essential
Spotlight Camera to record video in color at night rather than in traditional black and
white. You can turn the spotlight on and off and you can adjust the spotlight behavior and
brightness.
Note:
You can manually turn the spotlight on and off at any time from the camera feed by
tapping
Spotlight
. You can also use the Low Light settings to control whether the spotlight
comes on automatically when your camera detects motion at night.
To change the low light settings for the spotlight:
