LED & LCD Setting

Infrared LED Setting on the Device

To configure the infrared LED setting on the device LED interface.

Parameter Set-up:

• LED Type: you can see the LED type Auto, ON, OFF, Schedule you selected.
• Threshold: refers to the current light intensity indicated by the photo-resistor value. The higher photo-resistor values correspond conversely to the lower light intensity and vice versa. The default photo-resistor value (Threshold) is 33, however, you can tap the icon  several times in order to obtain the actual photo-resistor value in a specific environment (the value fluctuation is about 5), and the value is what you based on configuring the minimum and maximum photo-resistor values.

You can set the white light function properly on the device web Intercom > Advanced > White Light interface.

Parameter Set-up:

• Max White Light Value: set the white light value from 0-255, and the default white light value is “50”.
• White Light PWM Value: set the white light PWM value from 0-100. PWM value affects the white light brightness that is set with the same white light value. For example, if the white light value remains the same, and you bring up the PWM value, you will get brighter white light. In short, the higher the PMW value is the brighter the light is.
