When the camera is in B/W mode it can utilize or see near-IR illumination; something the human eye
cannot do. This can be extremely powerful when the dome is paired with 850~950nm IR illuminators.
With this combination a scene can be well lit with IR light that the dome can see but people cannot.
This is great for areas where externally lighting is not allowed or there is a need for covert security.
Procedure 41 Enable / Disable IR Illuminator
This feature is not supported on the Indoor Dome or Box camera. Refer to product codes for feature
support.
