Activity LED (green)

Indicates activity as follows:

Blinking—Activity detected

 

 

Activity can occur when the IP camera communicates with the network

 

 

or when a user views video from the IP camera.

 

 

If you check the Enable LED Operations check box in the Basic Setup

 

 

window, the Activity LED does not light. For more information see the
