Status lights (LEDs)
Your XOHM USB gives you at-a-glance status information via its
LED indicator bar. Here’s a list of indicators and meanings:
cGreen status lightSolid Green indicates the XOHM USB is
powered and service is available. Flashing Green indicates data
activity (send/receive, alerts, diagnostics).
cAmber status lightFlashing Amber indicates a transitional
state (firmware updates, acquiring network).
cRed status light indicates a problem state (no network service
available, other errors).
Firewall Information: Activation and provisioning requires 2-way
communication between XOHM Connection Manager and the
XOHM provisioning server. Depending on your computer’s setup,
you may need to adjust your firewall and security settings to
allow this communication. Otherwise, activation and provisioning
may fail.
cDuring activation, your firewall application may ask for
your permission to allow communication involving XOHM
Configuration Manager and Connection Manager. To
ensure successful activation and provisioning, it is strongly
recommended that you configure your settings to “always
allow” connectivity from and to XOHM Configuration
Manager and Connection Manager. Consult your firewall
documentation or see “Addendum - Working With Firewalls”
in the XOHM Connection Manager User Guide on the CD.
cIf you are unable to activate successfully and you do not see
any pop-ups, please see the XOHM Connection Manager
User Guide for information about manually configuring your
firewall settings.
cFor improved reception, always rotate the XOHM USB’s
antenna vertically during use. Caution! Be sure not to pull
the antenna away from the body, as this may cause it to
break off of its hinge.
