also during the night. To turn on the illuminators when it gets dark and turn them off when it gets light:
1. Go to Settings > System > Accessories.
2. Under External illuminators, select the type of light coming from each of the illuminators.
3. Turn on Use illuminators.
4. Go to Image > Day and night and make sure that the IR-cut filter is set to Auto.

or Dark.
6. Turn on Allow illumination and Synchronize illumination.

To learn more about different pan, tilt, and zoom settings, see Pan, tilt, and zoom (PTZ) on page 16.
Limit the pan, tilt, and zoom movements
If there are parts of the scene that you don't want the camera to reach, you can limit the pan, tilt, and zoom movements. For
example, you want to protect the privacy of residents in an apartment building, which is located close to a parking lot that you intend
to monitor. To limit the movements, go to Settings > PTZ > Limits.
Create a guard tour with preset positions
A guard tour displays the video stream from different preset positions either in a predetermined or random order, and for configurable
periods of time.
1. Go to Settings > PTZ > Guard tours.
