Day and Night Settings
IR Cut Filter:
The IR-Cut Removable (ICR) filter mechanically switches between two
different sensor filters. It provides the best light conditions both during the day and
night. The following options are:
• Auto Mode:
The camera automatically switches between day and night mode
by judging the level of ambient light. This mode is accessible only when the
exposure mode is set to Auto.
• Day Mode:
In this mode the camera switches on the IR cut filter at all times,
which will block the infrared light from reaching the sensor so that the colors
are not distorted.
• Night Mode:
The camera switches off the IR cut filter to allow the infrared
light to pass through. This helps the camera to see more clearly in low light
conditions.
• Schedule Mode:
The camera switches between day and night mode based on
a specific schedule. Ensure to enter the starting and ending time for the day
mode. Note that the time format is [hh:mm] and is expressed in 24-hour clock
time.
Light Sensor Sensitivity:
Select Low, Normal, or High sensitivity for the light
sensor.
