10.4.2.3. Light Sensor Mode (Default Mode)
The default day-night settings are usually ideal. The camera has been calibrated to run in color mode as long as enough ambient
light is available for the sensor to use. Once the scene begins to darken, the camera will adjust to black and white night mode, and
the IR LEDs will turn on as needed. Change the Lux variables to optimize the switch between modes for the scene.
