Bought the IR806AS. Day time grass,tree leaves looks like snow. Color I may get stop sign being red. States built in IR control.. Suppose to be off during day? not working? Is this why I have NO color??? What can I do?

the question/s are probably best served by directing to the manufacture, however I suspect the issue at hand is that these are indeed IR(infrared light) cameras specifically designed to see in the IR spectrum of light. some of these IR cams have visible light filters in place to make visible light corrections, this particular model of IR cam does quite well at night with little or no ambient light situations-but because of the lack of daylight filter correction you will get that magenta skewed coloration this is not a defect!! it is simply the way the camera sees ambient daylight!!! I have 6 of these cameras for security purposes therefore the lack of correct coloration during the daylight hours is not issue for me as this camera is very good at night and has built in microphone which is an added plus. I have done considerable amounts of research on CCTV cams for me this cam represents the best bang for the buck when you consider what you get in the package-most importantly for me the IR cam system works and works well-if you are interested in IR cams with daylight color corrections you will have to no doubt have to spend considerably more and you may not get the 100ft dedicated cable microphone or power supply with said purchase

I'm looking at mine right now, the IR window is not covered. Pic here http://i.imgur.com/OxmYpaO.jpg

The 4 units I own have good quality day or night. The areas I have covered are also assisted by some additional area lighting (one 60w light in the back yard, and a 250w sodium street light near my driveway) which may contribute to the quality of the night vision. If possible, I'd recommend adding some additional lighting to assist the nighttime vision. If that doesn't work, then you may have a defective camera. These cameras will display only black and white at night (no color).

We haven't had the red issue but we have had the screen turn colors and the black vertical lines happen. The unit has cheap capacitors in them. If you can solder it is a $5 fix. If you canT and you buy the new board about $120 fix. Very easy fix though. Look it up on Youtube and you can see what I am talking about. Youtube instructions stepped me through it....super easy

That's a loaded question, the camera in order to view any image at night uses infrared lighting and so the image is not in color. But during the day yes it is color images you will see.

I had the same problem with the red light a couple times. I ignored it and used the filter anyway :)

The LED lights turn a dim red at night when the camera is on. They are difficult to see and not very bright. I have not reviewed the instructions to see if there is a day only option. I have mine setup to turn on when the vehicle starts and turn off when the vehicle turns off. The LED on most infra red cameras do the same thing, I install them for a living..

Given the lack of any information other than you use an Xbox One and the IR eye didn't work, it could be anything. Did you check that you need a mono plug instead of a stereo plug? Can you see the IR eyes flashing? Do you have it plugged in?

image is color when there is enough light in the room - black and white when in infrared/night mode. image is good ..... but I've had problems with the monitor .... twice .... and have given up on the system. I went to a pure internet based system by dlink and have yet to have any issues

Is there a different colored wire associated with the parking brake on that model? I had to buy an Alpine wire harness, as I bought my INE-940W used and it came with a harness that was missing the blue/yellow and black/yellow wires. Your model is newer, so I would assume that the wire color is either different or they made it so you couldn't cheat the system. Double check your instructions to see what wires are associated with the parking brake, if any at all. Hope that helps, but without seeing the instructions, or wires coming from the plug, I don't know what else to do. Google really helped me figure it all out. Crutchfield might have some options for you too. Good luck!! Is there a different colored wire associated with the parking brake on that model?

My indicator does the same , but stops once I start moving forward. ( not sure why ) . My indicator does not give me a true reading to the battery charge . The lights run from green to red , red being that you require a charge . On mine I get the level down by three to four lights ( never reaches the red and I need to charge her up. ( and the batterys are brand new ) !

You know what? That's the one thing I don't understand about the unit. I'll be driving along and all of a sudden the screen will change from normal to traffic, and it's mostly in gray and blue. I have been meaning to call Garmin about this, but just haven't gotten to do it. It's really weird. Sorry I couldn't help more.

Thanks to you guys, I know why my modem's flashing orange! So an ENORMOUS thanks for making it an easy answer to find! I figured flashing orange would be something horrible and catastrophic... Who thought to use orange? Couldn't they have just used the green or something??Now... to figure out why it always used to flash blue before today... sigh...(edit: for future reference, my ethernet between my modem and Airport router seems to have spontaneously died- just swapped in a new cable and it's blue again!)

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...

One wire is marking lights the other is stop and the last one is ground take the light to your battery and touch one or the other to the battery posts and you will see one wire is dimmer then the other that is your marking light the other is brighter that is your stop light keep in mind they are not very visible in the day but at night they are super bright. Mine work great. You just have to figure out what wire does what. I hope this helps yall.

My unit was stuck on red and I disconnected the LED wires and powered the controller up with no lights attached. I then turned it off and reconnected the wires and got it out of the red mode. My unit is now stuck on the color changing cycle. I can't figure out if it's the remote or the controller causing the issue. I have given up and ordered a different LED RGB controller.

If you read the insert that came with your unit, it says the RED light will only have 15 visible lights (snowflake pattern) visible. The other 18 are infrared, which cannot be seen.
