LED and Moonlight mode “OFF”
LED and Moonlight mode ON
Please note: If you are using the cameras to look through a window, you should set the night vision mode
to turn off the IR LEDs instead turn on the automatic moonlight mode. Otherwise the IR LEDs would reflect
off the window glass and the glare would make everything almost invisible.

“IR Cut Filter control”--
IR is present naturally in day light, this can cause discolouration of images where
the greens can look purplish. The IR cut filter blocks these IR lights from coming back onto the lens of
camera, and this gives a true day image. However, if the IR cut filter is on during night, the night vision
will not work.
It is recommended to leave the IR cut filter control to
Auto
at all times, to achieve best results from the
camera. During the day, an optical “IR Cut filter” removes all IR light. This makes the camera’s vision
similar to a human eye which does not see IR light, and therefore all colors appear vivid and natural to
us. At night, the filter moves out of the optical path to enable IR night vision. You can actually hear a
muted click when this filter moves in or out. This happens both during power-up and when light levels
change between day & night.
