The status indicator LED on the device may be off. Turn the
device on, and the status indicator LED should illuminate.
1.2 external power is off or miswired
Verify the device power source is connected correctly and
powered on.
1.3 wrong power supply or voltage

1.4 node battery is dead
If the node will not power on, the node battery may need to be
replaced.
1.5 node or gateway is damaged
If all power settings and connections have been verified, and
the node is still unresponsive, contact LORD Sensing Technical
