Status LEDs (MW08)
LED states
The LEDs show the state of different AP services.
- LED 1 shows the AP power state
- LED 2 shows the state of LAN 1
- LED 3 shows the state of LAN 2
- LED 4 shows the state of the 2.4 GHz radio
- LED 5 shows the state of the 5 GHz radio
- LED 6 shows the state of the BLE radio

Special states
| State | Description |
|---|---|
| All LEDs blinking - Alternating LED 3/5 blinking blue, then LED 3/5 blinking blue and LED 2/4 solid blue | The AP has power and is attempting to reach the Meter Cloud |
| LEDs 2-5 blinking blue in unison | Flash LEDs feature is in use |
| All LEDs off | The AP is either powered off completely or has the LEDs disabled |
To learn more about the Flash LED feature, see Locate an access point.
APs plugged in with all LEDs off may have their LEDs disabled in Dashboard. To check the Enable LEDs configuration:
- Navigate to Hardware > Access Points, click on the specific AP
- Click the Edit button for the AP
- In the Edit access point page, check Enable LEDs as desired:
