LED Modes and the ―Blinking Red LED‖
Below we will explain the different LED Modes. To change the LED Mode press the ―Main Menu‖ button repeatedly until ―Charge‖ is highlighted. Scroll to the right until ―Misc‖ is highlighted and press ―Enter‖. Now scroll to ―LED-Mode‖ and press ―Enter‖. Here you can use the up and down arrows to select the mode you prefer. After selecting the appropriate LED Mode press ―Enter‖ to save this data to the Classic. Pressing ―Status‖ will now bring you back to the home screen.
OFF = No LED activity no matter what
Rick Mode = LED Activity for Errors and Warnings only. (Over current, Arc Fault Etc)
Blinky = basically cycles all the LEDs in a Disco fashion (Useful for Parties)
LED 1 = LED activity for Warnings and Errors as well as info. A green LED on the display indicates the Classic is in Float. A yellow LED on the display indicates a warning (Over Temp, over current etc). A red LED on the Display indicates an Error (Arc Fault etc).
There is also 3 LEDS inside the Classic that can be viewed through the upper vents. The red LED indicates Auxiliary 1 is active. The yellow LED indicates Auxiliary 2 is active.
The blue LED is for Follow â€"Me a short 1/10 of a second blip means it got a good packet a long blip ½ second means it got a bad packet or no packet at all. Consistent long blips generally indicate a bad cable.
