2.5 Overview of LED Indicators

The 2N LiftGate status is signaled by LED indicators on the device front side. Refer to the table below for the statuses.

Flashing Frequencies
Slow flashingFlashes 1:1, interval 1 s = 0.5 s light on (ON) + 0.5 s no light (OFF)
Fast flashingFlashes 1:1, interval 0.2 s = 0.1 s light on (ON) + 0.1 s no light (OFF)
Short flashingInterval 4 s = 0.2 s light on (ON) + 3.8 s no light (OFF)
LED Indicators

DEVICE STATUS

Indicates the general system status.

  • Blue – device status OK, device operational
  • Blue, slow flashing – device error that does not affect the full functionality of the device
  • Red – temporary error (to be solved automatically, e.g. provider service failure)
  • Red, slow flashing – permanent error (admin intervention is required, e.g. via the device web interface)
  • Red, fast flashing – HW error, on-site service intervention is required (e.g. DSL short-circuit, battery error/defect)

POWER

Indicates the general power supply status.

  • Blue – external supply is progress, battery is kept charged
  • Blue, short flashing – external supply in progress, low battery life 
  • Blue, slow flashing – external supply in progress, battery is being charged (90–100 %)
  • Blue, fast flashing – external supply in progress, battery is being charged (0–90 %)
  • Red – battery supply in progress, battery capacity over 50% 
  • Red, slow flashing – battery supply in progress, battery capacity below 50% 
  • Red, fast flashing – battery supply in progress, battery capacity critically low (less than 10 %) 
  • No light indication – battery disconnected

CELLULAR NETWORK

Indicates the mobile network connection status


   
  • Permanently on – SIM OK, Internet connection available. The LED color signals the network technology used: 
    • Yellow – 2G 
    • Green – 3G 
    • Blue – 4G 

Slow network LED flashing indicates that the SIM card and registration are OK, but  the Internet connection is unavailable.  

  •  Red, slow flashing – SIM OK, network search in progress 
  •  Red, fast flashing – SIM error (PIN unset or card rejected by network) 
  •  No light indication – SIM not inserted 

SIGNAL STRENGTH

Indicates the signal strength.

  • Blue – strong signal (> = −80 dBm) 
  • Green – medium signal (< = −80 dBm) 
  • Red – weak signal (< −100 dBm) 
  • No light indication – no signal (< −110 dBm) 

MOBILE DATA

Indicates the Internet availability via a module. 



  • Blue – connection is working 
    • Permanently on – active primary connection 
    • Slow flashing – active backup connection 
  • Red – connection is not working 
  • No light indication – connection is disabled (in configuration) 
See below for examples of connection statuses and signaling.

WAN

Indicates the Internet availability via WAN. 

    




  • Blue – connection is working
    • Permanently on – active primary connection 
    • Slow flashing – active backup connection 
    • Fast flashing – Internet connection unavailable 
  • Red – connection is not working
    • Fast flashing – no connection is available (MOBILE DATA or WAN)
  • No light indication – connection is disabled (in configuration) 
See below for examples of connection statuses and signaling.

CABIN SWITCH 1 & 2

Indicates the states of connected cabin switches 1, 2.

  • Blue – voltage OK, connected 
  • Blue, slow flashing – disconnected (no consumption) 
  • Red – voltage warning (overconsumption, current > 750 mA) 
  • Red, fast flashing – voltage error (consumed current > 1050 mA, overload or short-circuit) 

Examples of Connection Statuses and Signaling

The MOBILE DATA and WAN LEDs indicate the general network connection of the device.

  • Active Primary Connection – both LEDs are permanently blue.
  • Active Backup Connection (Primary Connection unavailable) – the primary connection LED is permanently red, the backup connection LED is flashing blue.
    Example:
    • MOBILE DATA LED is permanently red and WAN LED is flashing blue – the Internet connection is established using backup connection via WAN.
    • MOBILE DATA LED is flashing blue and WAN LED is permanently red – the Internet connection is established using backup connection via MOBILE DATA.

  • No Connection Available – both LEDs are red and fast flashing.
