Motion detected when IR light cycles on or off

Have a CamPan, firmware updated to latest. CamPan AUTO-switches from day to night mode. When the switch occurs, especially from night to morning, when the sunlight comes in from the glass door in the cam’s vision radius, The mode switch automatically triggers an alert, most probably due to the change in sunlight level at some almost consistent time each day, I will check if reducing the motion detection will BYPASS this problem. However, the real solution is to correct the cam’s software logic as follows:

Tweak the cam’s software to not initiate a new alert if the switch from day/night mode occurred N milliseconds just before the alert was triggered.

It should be that simple!
