Is the external LED really needed ??

You can customize it to only illuminate when there are alerts and I find it very useful having it in my direct view so you know where the source is immediately.

Tom/BRD,

After experimenting with the brightness selections for the Control Set LED, and the External LED, I have both LEDs set at "2". When I previously set the External LED to "1" the LED went off after the startup sequence.

My Question: When the External LED is set to "1", and the External LED goes off after the startup sequence, will the External LED illuminate Red/Yellow if the system detects laser "interference" from an external source? (I have a Control Box with HW2.0, and have selected Dark Mode "Dim" and Status LED "Constant")

Thanks

Lowest Setting on the External LED is OFF and it will illuminate at full brightness during an alert.
