Notes (please take a look on them):

  • Auto Firmware update – On Power on or after the initial Wifi setup, the device performs automatically firmware update. If there is new FW, the LED will turn bright Red (Red) for ~30 seconds. Do not power if off during this time (you won’t brick it if you do, but there is a chance you may need to flash the fw via command line after that)
  • LED Indication – It lights dim Violet(Violet) after start and turns off after 3 minutes. Other functions: discuss here
  • RF Connectivity – by default it is OFF, you need to enable it from the config utility (if your device supports it). Also discuss it here
