Tasker Android App - Activate Nightvision Task



Create a Tasker scene to switch the IR LEDs

In the following we will create a Tasker Scene - a user interface that can combine a large number of buttons to control your camera - and provide buttons for switching the night vision of your camera. By the same principle, you can address almost all camera functions - both for our HD cameras, as well as the VGA models.

Add an existing task (activate IR LEDs)

Start Tasker and switch to the Scenes tab. Press the plus at the bottom to create a new scene and assign a task.
