• A momentary green light followed by a slow, blinking green light during Entry or Exit delay — you'll also hear dings to match the blinking light
• A constant green light when the system is in AWAY mode
• A momentary purple light followed by a slow, blinking purple light as the system is switching to NIGHT mode — you'll also hear dings to match the blinking light
• A pulsing yellow light when a firmware update is available
• A fluttering amber or red light when the system notices something abnormal and is trying to grab your attention
  • You can dismiss this alert by tapping on the Action button, which is located at the center of the touch-sensitive surface on top of Camera Base Station
  • When tapped, Camera Base Station may announce the issue at hand, or ask you to check our app on your phone for details
• A blue light followed by a spinning sky blue light when you're using voice control
