Can I turn off the IR lights so that it can point out a window?

I don't think so but I had another camera that I used to do what you are talking about and I just put electrical tape over the IR lights and that worked great. Not the best solution but it did work fine.

No, not on this model. The IR lights are always on. Go with the FI8918W or the FI9821W at 720HD. I use the FI8918W looking out the garage window with the IR lights off and a motion sensing light on the outside.

Yes, in the setup page there are options for the following:Infrared LED control: [Auto/On/Off]Black and white mode: [Auto/On/Off]Moonlight mode: [Auto/On/Off]IR cut filter control: [Auto/On/Off]LED Control -> off should disable them at night.

I don't think there's a way unless you make modifications to the front panel (as in make a hole in it) While it wouldn't be integrated, you could install an external IR module somewhere nearby

No IR window - you'd have to use a USB adapter or buy a mobo that has an integrated bluetooth... something like that.

You can turn this light off. The switch also allows three separate light levels, though they are all very "soft."

There is a sensor on the front of the camera, directly in-line with the IR lights, that senses when the lights should come on and off. As far as I know, there isn't any option to set a schedule for the IR lights, or even any way in the settings to turn them on/off manually. This can be a drawback. I've also noticed that when the lighting is between the IR on and IR off stage, the IR lights will cut on and off every few seconds. You can hear when they come on... they make a *click* sound. Click on... 2 seconds pass... click off... repeat over and over until the lighting goes up or down. This rarely happens, but if the light gets just right...

Yes. Configuration -&gt; advanced configuration -&gt; system -&gt; Service tab -&gt; uncheck "Enable IR Light." You may have to update firmware to have this option. I am running version 5.1.2 build 140116. I think you must have at least version 5.1.xx to have this option. Hope this helps.

Yes, you can turn the light off. The unit will still diffuse without it being on.

Not to my knowledge. I do not use it for that purpose and am not certain what type of lighting would be helpful to you. It sounds like you would need an infrared device.

Presuming that you are referring to the outdoor 2332L camera... Under the advanced tab, the first option is ICR & IR... you can turn off the IR light and untrigger the IR filter there... I'm sure this is in the user manual!!

You can program a calculator key. Illumination can be turned off, and it does go dark when the computer turns off.

Yes, you can leave the illumination off or switch it between the red or green illuminations.

Yes, that is true: you will see a red light reflection on the window. Keep in mind that although this device is a GREAT deal for the price, it is essentially the lowest quality IR device you can buy that's not a toy. High end IR devices can cost thousands of dollars so this is the lowest priced one you can find that really works!

There is no IR window. I just use the wired IR receivers since I have the computer buried behind the TV anyway.

Yes. You can turn the nightlight off. It has 4 settings; low/ low with light/ high/ high with light

No. You can turn the light off with the switch on the bottom but the sensor will not react and will not light up.

From my research, you can, but to use at night the IR will reflect. To get around that you'd have to turn off the IR and also potentially cover with black tape. Then use a LED illuminator like this: http://tinyurl.com/qz457ac
