Turn OFF IR Light does not save

Post by davptz »

I have an Amcrest IP5M-B1186E bullet camera. When I go to its IP Address I can go into setting and under camera configuration it allows me to turn the IR Light OFF. (which works exactly as desired). I press the SAVE button and it pops up a green "save successful' message. But when I logout the IR Light turns back on. Going back into setup it has returned the setting to AUTO instead of OFF.

Is there any way to get the setting to stick?

Working on the wrong Profile. Need to check your Profile Management and see if it is setup for full time day, or some other mode. If it isn't setup to work on day/night profile then making the change to night will not do anything for you at night because it is working on a different profile? So to make it whole, go to the setup page for day and turn off the IR in that profile as well.. You can see in my Management page for one of my AI cameras it was and is still setup for full time day...
