NORMAL OPERATION

Under Normal operation with lightbar turned on the breakout box will have the Green and Red LED light on steady. When ever you change
an input to the lightbar the Red LED on the breakout box will flash then go back to steady.

When the lightbar is off (no inputs active) the Green LED on the breakout box will stay on for 15 seconds then go off putting the lightbar into
sleep (standby) mode. The Red LED will flash every 5 seconds to tell you there is power to the breakout box and it is waiting for an input to
turn on the lightbar.
