LED L3 (yellow)

L3 flashes with every communication between the module and
its radio unit in Idle mode, and with every communication with
Alarm.com in Connected Mode. In PowerSave mode, this LED
flashes in unison with LED 2

LED L4 (green)

L4 indicates the CDMA signal level as a number of flashes (0 to 5
bars). The number of bars may not correspond to the bars shown
on your cell phone. A level of 5 bars is obtained only in the
strongest signal conditions. Signal level is updated every ten
seconds if it fluctuates, or every 30 seconds if it is fairly stable.

If LED 4 is continuously flashing, the module provisioning process
is in progress. The signal level indication will resume after the
process completes.

If L4 is not flashing it indicates one of the following states:

• The module is in power save mode;

• The module just powered up;

• There is no CDMA coverage in the area. Alarm.com

recommends a steady signal level of 2 or higher for proper
operation of the module.

In connected mode, the LED toggles on and off.

LED L5 (yellow)

L5 indicates Z-Wave errors. The possible signals and what they
indicate can be viewed above.

Various Module States (modes)

There are three module states, or modes, as described below:

Idle Mode. AC power is OK and the module is not currently talking
to Alarm.com.

L1 - Flashes errors, if any.

L2 - Communication with panel

L3 - Communication with radio unit

L4 - Signal level (0 to 5 bars)

L5 – Flashes errors, if any

PowerSave Mode. The module just powered up, AC power is
down, or AC power was recently restored and the battery is
recharging. The module is fully functional and will go into
Connected Mode as soon as a signal needs to be sent. Press and
hold the 5 Key for 10 seconds to switch the module into Idle Mode
and update the signal level reading. The system will go into Idle
Mode every 2 hours to check for any incoming messages.

L1 - Inactive.

L2 - Communication with panel

L3 - Same flashing pattern as L2

L4 - Inactive

L5 - Inactive

Connected Mode. The module is currently talking to Alarm.com.
The module stays in connected mode for at least four minutes
after reporting an event to Alarm.com, unless the 5 Key is pressed
and held for 10 seconds, which will cause the module to go back
to Idle Mode.

L1 - Flashes errors, if any

L2 - Communication with panel
