Night Vision Setup - Y-cam Black SD User Manual

6.14 Night Vision Setup*
The Y‐cam utilizes 30 infrared LEDs to provide high levels of light in dark environments. The intelligent photosensitive
components can automatically turn on the infrared LEDs in low light conditions or you can manually turn them on.
Click on Night Vision Setup under the title Camera to change the settings for your camera.
[Infrared LED Control] "Auto" switches on the IR LEDs automatically when there isn't enough light to produce a good
quality image. "On" turns the IR LEDs on permanently and ignores the light level in the room (resulting in a Black &
White mode). When "Off" is selected the IR LEDs are kept in the off state even if the light level of the room is too dark
to produce a good quality image. This may be useful if the LEDs are reflecting off a nearby surface and obstructing your
view.
[Black and white mode] "Auto" switches the video from colour to monochrome when the IR LEDs are turned on. "On"
switches the video to monochrome irrelevant of the status of the IR LEDs. "Off" forces the Y‐cam to stay in colour mode
even when the IR LEDs are on.
* Nightvision settings only available on Y‐cam Black, Y‐cam Knight and Y‐cam Bullet models.
