how to Gravity: TCS3430 XYZ Tristimulus Filter ALS / Gain settings

Recently bought Gravity: TCS3430 XYZ Tristimulus Filter.
There is no LED and INT pin available like a breakout board.

When switching on the LED, I get a very high gain output. 

X : 36863 Y : 36863 Z : 25412 IR1 : 4530 IR2 : 1519 
X : 36863 Y : 36863 Z : 25249 IR1 : 4505 IR2 : 1510 
X : 36863 Y : 36863 Z : 25224 IR1 : 4501 IR2 : 1502 
X : 36863 Y : 36863 Z : 25250 IR1 : 4507 IR2 : 1505

Is there any option to control the LED gain via the program for this specific board?
I am using aurdino UNO

Thanks in advance.

you may have the option to control the LED gain and other sensor parameters via the software (Arduino code), depending on the library or driver you are using. Typically, color sensors like the TCS3430 allow adjusting the integration time and gain settings to control how much light is captured by the sensor.
