Model: Tapo C200  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:
Hello everyone I am a total newbie to this type of stuff so please forgive the lack of basic knowledge
 
I am hoping to purchase a Tapo C200 as it might have the 2 elements that i am looking for in a indoor smart camera.
 
As far as I am aware it is possible to set the camera to Day mode so that the Night Vision will not switch on at all
 
is that correct ???   as I want to place the camera so that it is pointing through a window and do not want the IR reflecting on the glass.
 
Also is it also possible to use the Ispy software/program to view the camera footage and record onto a PC hard drive.
 
Hope some one can spare a few mins  and help.
 
Thank You
 
Kevin

Hello,

 

Yes, we can choose to use Day Mode or Night Mode and we can set it to Day Mode at night, but to be honest, we cannot guarantee the image is clear enough if the IR is disabled. If you do need the camera point to a window, ensure the image quality is in HQ which can be modified on the Tapo app.

 

Yes, you can use third-party applications like iSpy to add and manage the camera, here is the guide:

May this help you.
