How to interpret the heart- beat LED status of the B208 zone expander.


Flash Pattern:
  • Flash at 1x/sec rate: Normal operation.

  • Flash at 3x/sec rate: An SDI2 communication error or the device has nothing programmed to it.

  • Steady ON: A trouble condition exists.

  • Steady OFF: Module is not powered or some other trouble condition prohibits the module from controlling the heartbeat LED.

  • OFF for 3 sec, then flashes: Firmware version.  Example; if the Firmware version is 3.2.1, the LED pulses 3 times and pauses for 1 sec, pulses 2 times and pauses for 1 sec, then pulses 1 time.  After flashing the Firmware version, the heartbeat LED stays OFF for 3 sec before indicating the module state.
