Controller LED Indicator
The controller has one Light Emitting Diode (LED) indicator: the BST/FLN LED (“”Basic
Sanity Test/Floor Level Network LED”) (Figure 1-1 on page 1-2 and Figure 1-2 on page 1-3).
When this LED is flashing on and off once per second, the controller is functioning properly
and is communicating with the field panel. When the LED is constantly on, the controller is
operating in stand-alone mode (not communicating with the field panel).
The LED stops flashing (and stays constantly on) two minutes after losing communication
with FLN or two minutes after power up if no FLN is present.
