[compare] Auto Infrared Mode | Turns on infrared lighting automatically in low light. The image changes to black and white. Intelligent Light | Uses infrared mode by default, then turns on white lights after nighttime motion so the image becomes color. Full Color Night | Turns on the lights automatically at night to keep the image in color, then turns them off during the day. Light Timing | Turns the lights on and off according to a selected schedule. All Off Mode | Turns off all light modes for brighter environments while keeping the image in color. [/compare] [tip] Choose the G6 mode based on whether you prefer a black-and-white low-light view, motion-triggered color view, continuous color at night, or scheduled lighting. [/tip]
