3.3.17 IR FUNCTION (Removable IR Blocking)
The IR blocking filter enables the PTZ camera to capture a clear image at night time
or in very dark lighting conditions. During the day, the IR blocking filter is fitted to
block the infrared light and ensure a clear image; at night, the IR blocking filter is
removed to catch the available infrared rays to view images in black and white. On
the
23× model, the user can view colour images when the IR function is activated.
Refer to the description to operate the removable IR blocking filter.

threshold indicates a higher sensitivity and can improve the reliability of the
lens.
