2.5.5 IR function (only for camera models with integrated IR LEDs)
The IR function setting can be found under this path: Camera > IR function
Day/night function:
Thanks to the IR cut filter, the camera is able to produce a clear image even at night or under
low light conditions.
Auto: Automatic day/night switching
Night: Black-white mode
Day: Colour mode
Light sensor:Depending on the incoming light the camera operates in day or night
mode.
Light on: IR LEDs are permanently on.
Light off: IR LEDs are permanently off.
Smart: The smart mode improves the black/white stability at night when IR light
prevails. If an external IR illuminator is activated and is thus the prevailing light
source, the IR cut filter of the camera remains open and prevents the camera from
switching into day resp. night mode.
Day/Night Threshold:
Here you can define the threshold to switch between day and night mode.

Smart IR:
Smart IR evens out possible overexposure of IR light. Usually, IR light is fixed and illuminates
the object either too much or too little. Smart IR evens out this effect by adjusting the IR light
intensity automatically. Far and near range are thus always ideally illuminated.
