• IR Cut Filter: IR Cut Filter blocks out the infrared
spectrum. You can ensure clear images at all times by
blocking out the infrared spectrum in high-lighting
conditions and allowing the infrared spectrum to pass
through in low-lighting conditions. When configuring
Event > Alarm In, this feature will not function if Day
& Night Mode event action has been configured.
- Nighttime Mode/Daytime Mode: Disables or
enables the IR cut filter.
- Auto: Allow the system to enable/disable IR Cut
Filter automatically.
- Schedule: Sets up the IR cut filter schedule. The
IR cut filter is disabled during the date and time
scheduled as Nighttime and enabled during the
rest. Set up or release Nighttime by selecting On or
Off in the bottom and clicking or dragging the date
and time area in the table. Selecting On or Off and
clicking the Select All/Clear All button sets up or
releases Nighttime for all dates and time.
• Switching Level: Sets up the switching level between
the daytime mode and nighttime mode. For example,
if the darkness level is set to 3 and brightness level
to 5, the system switches to nighttime mode when
in the lighting condition of level 3 or below and
to daytime mode when in the lighting condition
of level 5 or over. It is recommended that you do
not set up the darkness level and brightness level
identically;otherwise, this function may not work
properly. This functions only when B&W Mode or IR
Cut Filter is set to Auto.
