4. LED Status codes
Smart Battery Sense has two LEDs: a Bluetooth status LED (blue), and an Error LED (red).
On power-up, the Bluetooth LED will be slow-blinking - indicating that the device is ready to accept a Bluetooth connection.
If both LEDs remain illuminated, something is wrong with the Smart Battery Sense unit (Hardware error).
When the LEDs are alternating quickly for more than 30 seconds, the Smart Battery Sense is in firmware update mode and will need to complete the update before it can be used. Firmware updates are performed (where necessary) after connecting to VictronConnect.
