Status LED#

The LED on the front panel provides information about the operational state of the commutator:

LED State	Commutator State
blinking red	Charging: Super-capacitors are charging. The commutator is effectively disabled, and can’t be used until charging completes which can take up to 30 seconds.
solid red	Disabled: All controls, except the Stop/Go button or `{enable: true}` remote command, are ignored and the motor is locked. When the disabled status is entered, the motor is halted instantly. All commands (remote or manual) received during the disabled state are cleared such that they do not engage when the commutator is enabled.
solid green	Enabled: Remote and manual controls are unlocked.
no color	LED Disabled: The commutator could be in any of the above states.

The LED can be toggled off if it presents unwanted visual stimulus by pressing the LED button. The LED can then be toggled on by pressing the button again. Alternatively, the LED can be toggled off/on remotely using the {led:false} or {led:true} command.

Status LED — Your commutator controller front panel might not be identical to the one pictured, but the status LED functions equivalently.#

Note

Toggling the LED on commutators that use Micro-USB requires holding the LED button for > 0.5 seconds.
