a. Settings
1 IR Cut Filter Mode
Auto
By selecting Auto the camera will automatically remove the
IR cut filter based on the predefined threshold. On Night
mode, the live view image will be black and white as the
camera will always remove the IR cut filter regardless of the
actual light levels
. Opposite to night mode, the Day mode
will never remove the IR cut filter from the image sensor
allowing visible light to pass through the image, providing
colored videos. Schedule mode allows users to program the
time for the camera to engage in night mode.

regardless of the IR cut filter mode. This mode is not
recommended unless the camera is installed in a dark
environment that requires IR at all
times. Inactive mode
will disable the IR even if IR cut filter is removed. Select
Schedule mode if you wish to program a specific time for
the IR to turn on/off.
