Example :
According to some models, this phenomenon appears when a wall or something bright is in the foreground of the image.
At night, the IR LEDs come to focus on the wall in the foreground and prevent viewing in the background. it's all the more amplified when it's represent 1/3 of your image.
Therefore, there is no other solution than to physically reorient the camera so that it visualizes the wall in the foreground as little as possible.
After reorientation :
Only by night, you notice a degration of image quality of your Dome cameras, whereas during the day, everything is clear
Examples : Blurred image, fog effect, stains...
The problem is often related to the reflections of the IR LEDs inside the camera.
Please check :
1- The camera is not fixed well : Check the base of the camera and the glass of the cover and check the tightness. Condensation can then appear at night and then disappear during the day when temperatures rise. You can wipe down your camera with a microfiber cloth and use an anti-fog spray.
2- Dust, dirt or micro scratches may appear : Regularly clean the camera and remove the rainwater stains
3- Damaged or incorrect fixed rubber ring : The rubber ring around the camera lens must be perfectly clean, undamaged and must fit perfectly against the glass of the cover. Otherwise, reflections may appear.
4- Camera Rotation Limit : Most of Dome camera has a maximum angle of rotation to respect and the IR LEDs must still remain visible otherwise, reflections inside camera may appear.

Output Resolution: Select a display resolution that is suitable for your TV.
1920 x 1080 will suit most TVs.
If your NVR supports more output resolution, you can select either 1024 x 768, 1280 x1024, 1440 x 900, 1280 x 720, 1920 x 1080 to take the output resolution.
If your TV or Monitor does not support these resolutions, we recommend that you temporarily use another monitor to make the adjustments and lower the output resolution to a minimum and then increase it as you go.
To adjust the size and position of the display screen to suit your Monitor / TV, you can also use the OFFSET Scale function :
- DIP Switch in S = Standard PoE / PoE+ Mode 100m Max
- DIP Switch in E = Enhanced PoE Mode to push the Power up to 200/250m // but with a speed limitation at 10Mbps (instead of 100Mbps)
- DIP Switch in V = VLAN Mode on ports 1 -> 8 (Uplink excluded)
- DIP Switch E = Makes a vlan (sealing between 8 first and last) and allows to increase the range (max 250m) poe but suffers a loss of power
- DIP Switch D = checks on the switch if there is a response of the ports via a ping and checks if the ports are powered otherwise, it restarts the port
- DIP Switch P = Real-time power supply and power priority mode (prioritizes the first 8 ports)

The terms "2.4 GHz" and "5 GHz" refer to radio frequencies used by the WIFI network to transmit its signal.
2.4 GHz | 5 GHz |
Benefits | |
Due to its lower frequency, it has a longer range than 5 GHz and is the most suitable network for outdoor use, it has an average range of 46 meters indoors and 90 meters outdoors (theoretical distance not taking into account potential obstacles) | Is's less susceptible to interference: This is because most devices such as Bluetooth devices, cordless phones, microwave ovens, and computers use the frequency of 2.4 GHz. The 5GHz band that has been used for less time for WiFi is less congested, which means you'll likely have a more stable connection. |
The 2.4 GHz frequency passes more easily through material (walls, etc.). | It is up to 3 times faster than 2.4 GHz, as it uses shorter radio waves, allowing for higher speeds. Under ideal conditions, the 5 GHz frequency is capable of going up to 1300 Mbps. |
It is recommended that you select the 2.4 GHz band if you are using computers for basic purposes, such as accessing the Internet to search, and sending emails. |
|
Disadvantages | |
One disadvantage is that it is now the most widely used frequency, so it is subject to interference with other objects (baby monitors, microwaves, etc.) and networks using this frequency. | 5gHz is difficult to get through walls: as such, it is generally preferable to use a 5 GHz WiFi network if you use WiFi in a single room and your box is located in the same room. |
