Tri-color Output LEDs 

 

 
Refer to Figure 2. 

Each tri-color output LED indicates when its respective Limitless™ input is paired to the WDRR 

and when it changes state. Each tri-color output LED also indicates a lost RF link between the respective 
Limitless™ input and WDRR or if the battery voltage level is low or dead. See tables below.
