•Press the “IR” button again to switch off the IR LED light. “IR0” will be shown at the lower center of the display. Switching off the IR LED when ambient light levels are adequate for viewing without it (full moon, near streetlights, etc.) will extend battery life and running time. Press the “IR” button once again to switch to DAY
IMAGE BRIGHTNESS BUTTON (E)
The Image Brightness (Sun Icon) button can be used to change the digital imaging frame rate, producing a brighter image for viewing or recording.
•Pressing the Brightness (Sun icon) button repeatedly will cycle through the available frame rates, beginning with the default frame rate (fastest), until the last (slowest, brightest) frame rate is reached. After that, the next press of the button returns back to the original fastest rate. The default, fastest frame rate in Night Mode is 25fps. Pressing the Brightness button cycles through the other frame rate settings, with the third press returning to the default again: 25fps>15fps>8fps>25fps>etc.
•In Day Mode, the default frame rate is 30fps. The frame rate cannot be changed in Day Mode, therefore the Brightness button will have no effect. The display is a color LCD, and images will appear in color in daytime use, or in strong artificial lighting conditions.
NOTE: selecting frame rates lower than the default 25fps in Night Mode will provide a brighter image, however the decreased frame rate may cause moving subjects to appear less smooth or stable when viewed.
RECORD BUTTON (F)
The Record button is used to capture still photos or videos of the image being viewed, dependent on the setting of the Photo/ Video switch. The photos and/or videos are stored on a (user supplied) micro SD card, with up to 32GB capacity. The unit has no internal memory.
•When the unit is in Photo Mode, pressing the record button will take a single photo of the displayed image, standard .jpg format, at a resolution of 640x480 pixels.
•When the unit is in Video Mode, pressing the record button will start a new video recording. The Record icon in the display will begin flashing, and the Video Time display will increase as the recording continues. Video is captured in .avi format at a resolution of 640x480 pixels per frame (VGA).
•To stop recording in Video Mode, press the Record button again.
