Introduction
The IPMX-B40F-ADW1/2 and IPMX-E40F-ADW1/2 IP cameras feature Audio and Visual active deterrence using their built-in speakers and Blue+ Red LEDs.

The camera will return to IR mode when the target leaves the scene.

This is not helpful.. I’ve messed with this for over an hour and a half and still can’t get any fancy lights set up. I will call tomorrow for support, then I will document every single click and clack that occurs, then I will send you that report and you can compare it to the condensed version you have here.
Hello David,
I made some changes to our article. Please let me know if this helps!
Thank you,
Delilah
