n
Night
Use this mode when the environment light level is low. The IR cut filter will be removed to
allow the camera to deliver clear images in black and white.
n
Day
Select this mode to turn on the IR cut filter. The IR cut filter can filter out the IR light and
allows the camera to deliver high quality images in color.
n
Light Sensor(Default)
In this mode, for cameras with built-in IR LED modules, the light sensor will decide the occa-
sion to turn the IR LED lights on/off. For cameras with non-IR modules, the light sensor will
decide the occasion to take the IR cut filter on/off.
n
Light On (Built-in IR LED Modules Only)
In this mode, IR LED lights will always be on.
n
Light Off (Built-in IR LED Modules Only)
In this mode, IR LED lights will always be off.
n
Smart
With Smart mode, the camera will decide the occasion to remove the IR cut filter. The Smart
mode mechanism can judge whether the main light source is from IR illumination. If so, the
IR cut filter will be kept removed (i.e. monochrome/night mode).
NOTE! It is recommended to select “Smart Mode” when the camera sets high zoom ratio
for close-up view.
Day/Night Threshold
This item is for users to set when the camera should switch from day mode to night mode or vice
versa. The camera will sense the surrounding brightness, and the threshold value stands for the
level of the light. Once the camera detects the light level reaches the set threshold, the camera will
automatically switch to Day/Night Mode. The range of the level is from 0 to 10, (darker = 0; brighter
= 10).
n
Night Mode to Day Mode
The lower the value, the earlier the camera switches to Day mode. The default value is 7.
n
Day Mode to Night Mode
The higher the value, the earlier the camera switches to Night mode. The default value is 3.
NOTE! Equipped with different CMOS sensors, the time the camera switches to Day/Night
mode may also vary from models to models even if the threshold is set to the same value.
