LED Meanings LED Patterns
Power LED: The yellow LED indicates that the
Amphion has power. If it is off, then the device is
not being powered.
Tunnel LEDs: The blue LEDs show that a VPN
Tunnel has been established to the ei3network. If
both blue Tunnel lights are off it usually indicates
that the Amphion does not have a connection.
System LED: The green LED represents the status
of the device. When the Amphion has completed
booting it will flash once per second.
Normal Boot:
The Amphion can take up to 2 minutes to start. Once booted, the green System LED will begin to
flash once per second. The blue LEDs will begin to flash when the Amphion is connected to the
internet and the VPN tunnel is established.
Configuration Pattern:
During USB configuration, the LEDs will flash in a clockwise manner. This process will continue
for 2-4 minutes during the configuration process. Afterwards, either the success pattern or the
error pattern will display on the LEDs.
Success Pattern:
This LED pattern is used to indicate that the configuration has completed successfully. All four
LEDs will flash simultaneously once per second. When this pattern shows, remove the USB stick.
The newly configured Amphion will automatically restart itself and then it will be ready to use.
Error Pattern:
This LED pattern shows that there was a problem during configuration. The LEDs will flash in an
"X" pattern to indicate an error. It usually means that there was an error reading the
configuration file from the USB stick. Common causes of this include a bad USB stick, a corrupt
configuration file, or a USB drive with more than two files with the string “ei3" in their filenames.
