Description
Selects the sensitivity of the PIR
sensor. The "High" setting will make
the camera more sensitive to infrared
(heat) and more easily triggered by
motion, and the "Low" setting makes
it less sensitive to heat and motion.
The High setting can be useful
when the ambient temperature is
warm (making it more difficult for the
sensor to detect animals), and the
Low setting may help in cold weather
if the camera is being triggered too
often by anything warmer than the
surroundings. "Normal" is for average
or moderate conditions. The default
"Auto" setting will allow the camera
to determine the best setting based
on its current operating temperature.
This is an ideal setting if the weather
is expected to change significantly
during the period the camera will be
used.
Affects the shutter speed during
Night Vision operation. High will
freeze motion better, but photos
may be darker. A Low shutter speed
setting will produce brighter photos,
but rapid motion may be blurred.
Medium is a good compromise.
Allows user to limit operation to only
day or night period if desired. An
ambient light level sensor determines
"Day" vs "Night" automatically. This
setting takes priority over any Field
Scan settings.
