Hi,
Currently, there is no option to disable the IR LED when the camera is in Night mode. It's recommended to vote and leave your use case in the thread "Option to Disable IR Light in Night Mode" for evaluation.
Best Regards

Sorry, this camera offers great features, but this and many other complain this missing feature. It shouldn't be a problem with a firmware update. For my projects your cameras currently out.
