Description
Fill Light
IR Mode
When the device is equipped with illuminators, you can
configure the fill light mode, including IR mode, white
light and smart illumination.
IR Mode: Enable the IR light, and then the white light
is disabled. You can only capture black and white
images after enabling this function.
The IR light is turned off for cameras with low power
consumption by default. Turn on the IR light if
necessary.
White Mode: Enable the white light, and the IR light
is disabled. You can capture clear scene image after
enabling this function.
Smart Illumination: This function is mainly used at
night.
Smart illumination applies IR mode in most
situations. When an event occurs (for example,
motion detection and human detection), the camera
automatically switches to white light mode to link
image capturing and video recording under the full
color mode. The white light turns off when the event
stops, and then the mode switches to IR mode
according to the ambient brightness.
The status of the illuminator mainly depends on time
and environment. If the smart illumination is triggered at
night and the event continues during the day, the
illuminator configured for the daytime will be turned off.
