Adjust the camera focus by turning the dial at the front of the

device.
The top right of the LCD screen shows how much space is left

for recording video onto the memory card, in HH:MM:SS.
For daytime use, ensure IR is set to off, with no icon on the
•
display and the picture in colour.
For night use, turn on the IR by pressing IR. Increase the level
•
of the IR LED by pressing IR up to level 5.

card.

The default setting uses 940nm IR LED for IR 1 to 3, and 850nm
•
IR LED for IR 4 to 5. With 940nm IR LED, the "red exposure" is
less obvious; however the brightness may be lower than 850nm.
To change this setting, press M twice to enter the settings
menu, and select "IR Settings".
