Day / night
The camera can switch automatically between colour images in day
conditions and black-and-white images in night conditions. Use this 
function to control the day/night behaviour of the camera. 
Note: black-and-white images are much clearer and contain less 
noise at low light levels.
Display: DAY/NIGHT 
COLOR The camera always makes colour images. 
B/W 
The camera always makes black-and-white images. 
 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. 
AUTO The camera makes colour images during the day and black-
and-white images during the night. Use the settings below. 
 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 nigh 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
