Raspberry Pi Forums

Hi,

I'm using a waveshare NOIR camera for my raspberry pi. At the moment I don't need the camera that's why I want to turn them off (it is already buillt in, so disconnect the cable from my pi is no option). turn off the camera is no problem, but both IR LEDS are always shining red and won't turn off until I power off my raspberry pi. Is there a solution to turn both NOIR LEDS off, probably with a /boot/config.txt property?

kind regards

If I recall correctly, the IR lights are connected directly to the 3.3V supply and there is not a good way to turn them off without removing them from the Noir, or at least one of the two connections per light.
