  • Page 13 Document Feedback AS7265x Multispectral Chipset Software Description Click the button to enable a display of continuously update metrics. If “Stop After” is not used, which is the sample limit, sampling will not stop. ● The “LED0” control sets AS72651 indicator LED current to on (1mA) or off as desired. It cannot be set once continuous sampling is set so should be setup prior.
