Roof/Weather Cam - Fine tuning daylight hours?

[Choco]

Hi, I have setup a rooftop cam that provides a stream and also POST's images every 4 minutes (for an eventual timelapse sequence).

Is there a way for the image POST feature to dynamically change its times and only take images during daylight all year round, without me manually changing the schedule times?

Current settings attached.

Create a Profile for time lapse that is called up by a Schedule which can be set relative to sunrise/sunset if you tell BI your Latitude & Longitude.
Please read BI Help pages 92-97 attached below entitled "Shield, Profiles and Schedules".

Thanks Tony, reading through that looks like I have it right already.

It just occurred to me since I don't use those features: you apparently have v4; if you upgrade to v5 you'll get additional features to more closely perform the task you want, if I'm not mistaken.

What are those features you are referring to in BI5?

My bad, v4 and v5 are the same in that regard, I was looking at BI options, schedule, not camera properties, schedule.
