IR LEDs
All/Part
All: all 58pcs IR LEDs will work at night; (this is good when you want the night images/video to be as
bright as possible)
Part: Bottom 30pcs IR LEDs will be turned off (this function might be used when you are capturing close
up footage - within 2 metres.
Image Size
5MP (2560*1920), 8MP (3264*2448), 12MP (4032*3024) We recommend using it in 5MP mode.
Night Mode
1.
Min. Blur:
Short exposure time (1/30 sec) to minimise motion blur for better image quality;
shortened IR flash range. This is our preferred Night mode although it does use slightly more power.
2.
Max. Range:
Longer exposure time (1/8 sec) to extend IR flash range for better night vision; lower
image quality.
3.
Balanced:
combination of above 2 options;
Multi-shot
Programmable 1~5 photos per trigger

Settings
Programmable Options
Sensitivity
High, Middle, Low
Higher sensitivity is: 1) more sensitive to movements by smaller subjects; 2) longer detection distance;
3) easier for sensor to detect difference between body heat and outdoor temperature; 4) easier to trigger
camera to record.
In
high temperature
environments, the body heat of subjects and the environments temperature is hard for
the camera to distinguish between. In this situation we suggest setting it to
High
. Also be aware that in
areas of heavy vegetation the heat can make the vegetation set the camera off if it is moving around within
the cameras field of view. This is more likely to occur in the heat of the day between 10:00 am and 2:00 pm.
Delay
Select “ON”, press “OK”, to set a time interval that you desire between photos/videos upon motion. This option
is used to prevent the camera taking too many photos or videos in some situations eg stock water trough.
Rarely used in a security situation though.
Example: Camera will wait 1 minute between photo/video recordings with motion if pre-set time interval
is 00:01:00
Configurable delay time: 00:00:05~23:59:59
Note: Please don’t turn ON Time Lapse and Delay simultaneously!
Time Lapse
Select “ON”, press “OK”, to set the interval; camera will shoot pics or video clips automatically upon the
interval user set.
Configurable interval: 00:00:05~23:59:59. Please note the PIR sensor of camera will be turned off when the
camera is in Time Lapse mode. The camera cannot record movement and Time Lapse images simultaneously.
Note: Please don’t turn ON Time Lapse and Delay simultaneously!
Timer
Select “ON”, press “OK”, to set the beginning time and end time (hour/minute); The camera will then only
work during the time period set.
i.e.: 15:00 – 18:00; camera only works during 15:00 – 18:00
