Illuminator; Enhance - Bosch DINION 5100i IR User Manual

30 en | Configuration
Notice!
The device has a mechanism to prevent oscillation between switching from day to night and
night to day continuously when the device is in Auto.
In case of frequent oscillations, the device will stay progressively longer in night mode. At a
i
certain point, the device will stop oscillating and enter permanent night mode.
Resetting this behavior ensures a shorter night mode. This can be useful, for example, to
account for changing conditions or for when the device is moved to a different location.
To reset this behavior, you need to switch the Day/night mode from Auto to a different
option (Color or Monochrome), and then revert to Auto.
