The camera switches from day to night and the other way
round along with the amount of light through the lens. The
camera makes colour images during the day and black and
white images during the night. The following extra settings
are used:
BURST: you can switch burst on or off to improve the
image quality. The burst function sends a colour signal to
the monitor in B/W mode. This may degrade the clarity
of the image.
DELAY CNT: delay counter. Defines the delay before the
camera switches from day to night mode or vice versa.
This prevents the camera from switching over too quickly
if the light conditions change only briefly.
DAYNIGHT: sets the threshold for switching from day
to night mode. The lower the setting, the less light is
required to switch to night mode. Recommended settings
are 40-75 for indoors, and 150 for outdoors.
NIGHTDAY: sets the threshold for switching from
night to day mode. The higher the setting, the more light
is required to switch to day mode. Recommended
settings are 50-85 for indoors, and 175 for outdoors.
Remarks:
The DAYNIGHT setting must always be lower than the
NIGHTDAY setting.
Make sure that the difference between the two settings is
large enough. If the settings are too close together, the
camera will switch too often between the two modes.
Note: The AUTO setting should only be used for a camera
not equipped with IR LEDs.
