Buddy3D camera in B/W

I've just installed Buddy3D camera to my Core One successfully.  Well, as long as the magnets hold which I have little confidence in!

But ... image is b/w only.  I know there's something written about an update to colour in new f/w sometime, BUT the first image after powering on the Core One comes through in colour, and subsequent ones in b/w.   So mabe the f/w is partly fixed ??  FWIW my camera f/w is 3.1.0.    Any suggestions ?

OK, as often happens, I have answered this myself ...

The camera was in auto mode and defaulting to IR.  I (eventually found) how to switch it to "day" and colour is restored.  Good.

Not so good: Prusa's instructions for installing the camera to the Core One are in the knowledgebase.  And towards the end is a basic section about setting up the camera wifi etc.  That all worked for me.  But now I find that there's a much more comprehensive knowledgebase article, about setting up the camera.  If I'd known about that the previous problem would not have occurred.  

Prusa: you really should delete the very basic instructions on the Core One camera page and point the users at the other knowledgebase article.
