Day Night Settings

The Day Night mode controls the position of the IR cut filter, which determines the color or black-white setting of the camera. The Day Night mode settings change depending on the Exposure settings. If the camera is set to Auto Exposure mode, the Day Night mode can be set to Auto or Manual and all of the respective settings are available. If the camera is set to Manual Exposure, the only available Day Night mode setting is Position, which sets the IR filter to either the Day (color) position or the Night (black-white) position.

Day Night Auto and Manual Modes

Day Night Auto Mode

The Day Night Auto mode setting automatically controls the IR cut filter depending on the Transition Level and Transition Detect Time settings.

Transition Level: Determines when the camera changes from day mode (color) to night mode (black-white). Settings include Lighter, Default, and Darker. Set the transition level to Lighter if you want the camera to change modes at a high lux setting. Use Default for normal day/night operation, and use Darker to change modes at a low lux setting.

Transition Detect Time (sec): Controls the length of time the camera is exposed to a light level before it changes to color or black-white mode. This setting is useful for dark scenes where a bright light is momentarily introduced in the scene (for example, when a car with its headlights turned on passes the camera scene).

Day Night Manual Mode

The Day Night Manual mode sets the IR cut filter to a fixed position depending on the Position setting. Available settings include Day and Night.

Day: Sets the IR filter to the Day (color) position.

Night: Sets the IR filter to the Night (black-white) position.

Note Position is the only available Day Night setting if the camera exposure is set to Manual.
