CNB dfl-20s work with external ir illuminator?

Recommended Posts

As you guys already know the dfl-20s does not come with an IR.

To get some visible picture at night I tried powering my spare dome camera with an IR by placing it side by side with the dfl-20s with no results.

Also tried pointing the IR at any given object.

 

I figured this is how an external IR illuminator works?

 

Did it not work because the dfl-20s didn't go into B/W mode? Or am I not understanding it correctly?

 

thanks in advanced.

As far as I know it has a fixed IR cut filter - AKA IR blocking filter.

I havent brought one home to really test yet, but if you remove the lens you may see a little square glass IR cut filter over the chip. You can remove that if you want, Ive done it with a color bullet I have here, but it might be tricky. Plus then the colors may be washed out.
