When the camera is in day mode, the IR-cut filteris turned on and blocks incoming infrared light, and when in night mode, the IR-cut filter is turned off and thecamera’s light sensitivity increases.• On: Select to turn on the IR-cut filter. The image is in color, but with reduced light sensitivity.• Off: Select to turn off the IR-cut filter. The image is in black and white for increased light sensitivity.Threshold: Use the slider to adjust the light threshold where the camera changes from day mode to night mode.• Move the slider towards Bright to decrease the threshold for the IR-cut filter.

The synchronizationbetween day and night only works if the IR-cut filter is set to Auto or Off.Automatic illumination angle : Turn on to use the automatic illumination angle.Illumination angle : Use the slider to manually set the illumination angle, for example if the angle needs to be differentfrom the camera’s angle of view. If the camera has a wide angle of view, you can set the illumination angle to a narrower angle,which equals a greater tele position. This will result in dark corners in the image.IR wavelength : Select the desired wavelength for the IR light.White lightAllow illumination : Turn on to let the camera use white light in night mode.Synchronize illumination : Turn on to automatically synchronize the white light with the surrounding light.Exposure18
