IPC-t5442t-ze stuck in B&W

[Bob Schulz]

Yesterday I was messing with some settings on a Cam (IPC-t5442t-ze) I have set up in a temporary location.
After changing settings on multiple cams I noticed this cam is stuck in B&W. Can anyone tell me what went wrong? I have restarted it.

Confirm you haven't forced it to B/W in the day/night setting.

Force it to color and see if it changes.

Another quick question.
When I checked the day/night profile it was on night time. So when I switched it to day it corrected the color. Except I notice the settings are greyed out and wont let me set color or b/w. What do I have configured that would prevent that?

Go to profile management and make it full time day or night, whichever one you want.

Since I am using the Sunrise/sunset utility I should leave it on day/night?

If you are using the utility then you do not use the day/night under profile management - you use full time day and the utility will change it to night and day profile.
