I dont see light option in mobile dmss app. I am seeing light option for my ptz cameras though

Trying to trigger the light manually from app
 
This camera is designed for performance not deterrence, so the light is either on or off based on your settings. It does not have a manual "button" to turn on and off.
 
This doesn't help you with DMSS, but if you're into this sort of thing the light can be switched on and off with an API call.

Edit: Ignore the clickability of the API commands. The forum did this automatically.

The IPC-Color4K-T180 might not have a manual light control option in the DMSS app like your PTZ cameras. Some fixed cameras with built-in lights only turn on automatically in low light or when specific settings like Smart Illumination are enabled. Check the camera settings in the NVR or web interface to see if there's an option to enable or adjust the light. If no manual control is available, the camera likely manages the light automatically based on its settings.
