1. Introduction
The GV-IR LED T2 is designed to work perfectly with the GV-IPCAM to improve the image
performance in low-light or night situations. When the GV-IPCAM detects the illumination of
the environment, it would determine it to be Day mode or Night mode. If you set the GV-IR
LED T2 to be triggered by D/N mode, the infrared light of GV-IR LED T2 will be turned on and
the camera images will be switched to monochrome to produce better images in the Night
mode. In the Day mode, the infrared light of GV-IR LED T2 will be turned off and the camera
images will be switched to color. For the On-Off conditions of each compatible GV-IPCAM,
see 4. Specifications.
.Following is the comparison of the GV-IPCAM working with and without the GV-IR LED T2 in
10 lux illuminance.
