• 4 lx is the brightness about 1.0 m away from auxiliary fluorescent light. Color night view mode slows down the frame rate, and

images may blur when viewing a moving object.

• When viewing a dark image, Color Night View mode a tomatically starts. The image will be brighter, but the refresh interval may
