What is the range of the IR mode?

Thanks for the good question. In the center of the image, it is about 40 - 45 ft in total pitch black darkness. Please note that the camera's built in IR light source is circular and the image is rectangular, so the corners of the image are darker than the center. If there is street lighting that will help. Or if you need more than this IR range, you can purchase an inexpensive IR illuminator to add more IR light. Those are available from under $20 to over $100 from many sources. For best range, you'd need the type known as "850 nm".

I'm not sure why mine is better than 45 feet but I am looking at my front gate and driveway at 4AM in total darkness and I can clearly see my truck front end at 100 feet from the camera??? Yes, I get up early ;)

SecureCam (SHARX) is being VERY conservative when they tell you the IR range in total darkness is 45 ft. It's more like 45 meters. I have a few of them and they light up object easily over 100 feet away. In fact the IR is so strong I disabled one of them. I use a small $5 IR LED panel which lets me illuminate off axis from the camera. This actually gives me a better image as the shadows help you distinguish more features.

This camera does very well in low light, but it is not IR. Infra Red cameras can see people in pitch black, so perhaps find a "Foscam" one if you really need it.

If I understand the question correctly, when receiving an ir command there is a small led that indicates receiving signal Hope this helps

There is not. I have mine behind my TV, and it works fine. I think that it may be using RF, rather than IR, but would have to double-check.

The Nikon site says the range is approximately 16 ft. That seems about right from what I have seen since I purchased this remote.

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

If by IR you mean InfraRed, yes. It's a remote so there aren't any wires involved.

As long as your communication and ir cables are long enough equipment can be placed where ever you want. I installed a whole house cable system with all cable boxes located in the basement. Max distance for remote control to ir receiver works best within 15 to 25 feet in not too bright of a room. Remember external light is the ir enemy good luck

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

There is no IR receiver that I know of or see. Remote capability is via Z-wave communication.

Try a "FLIRC" ir reciever/translator http://www.flirc.tv/ $15 with your own usb extension cable.

The infrared lights on this camera are not really visible unless you're very close to the camera. The downside to that is that they also don't really illuminate a large area. Unless someone is immediately in front of the camera, within 3-8 feet, you really can't see the lights and you also won't see much detail in the video signal.

Sure did. All of the clicking drive me nuts. I thing I have mine set at 5% tolerance and it fixed it. Going to have to find your own mix that works for your environment. It will pick up even the slightest light from like oven clocks to neighbors lights outside. It sees it all. My buddy had to leave his ir off and just use an external ir light. Good luck.

Hello,The CMVision also provides infrared light in the 850 nm range. While I was using the device, it easily illuminated to 50 feet and beyond. Unfortunately, I had to return it since the LED's stopped working. The device definitely has the 50 feet range though.Good luck

IR requires line of sight and has a shorter distance limit. You can turn your head and lose the IR signal. RF is better for this purpose.

I did it, but the video quality went way down. It works okay for me, but I haven't tried it with the IR LED's on. Worst case scenenario, run a light extension cord. Hope that helped. :)

The camera is great in short distance, up to 20-30 ft. The camera does not have any IR light built in, so you will need at least two or more good IR lights. the quality of camera is good and I use it in every night investigation I do. Best within 20ft but nothng over 30ft
