• Flash = LED going off and then on again.
• According to unit ID of the unit. This means
• Unit 1 (if not active unit) - system LED will flash 1 time
• Unit 2 (if not active unit) - system LED will flash 2 times
• Unit 3 - system LED will flash 3 times
• Unit 4 -system LED will flash 4 times;
• The duration of each flash (LED off time) will be as follows:
• LED off time (in each flash) ~ 0.5 seconds.
• "Interim" LED on (between 2 LED offs) ~ 0.5 seconds
