MEMO In the Night Mode, if you use the remote control to turn off the camera, the built-in infrared light will turn off. However, the Night Mode will still be in effect.

Then if you use the remote control to turn on the camera again, the built-in infrared light will not light. Use the setting menu to turn off the Night Mode and turn it on again. The built-in infrared light will then light.

In the Night Mode, if you turn off the power and turn it on again, the Night Mode will be cancelled.

When RS-232C control is used (P.34), night mode and the built-in infrared lighting can be used independently. The infrared lighting can also be used for more than 30 minutes.
