Today’s higher quality security cameras have traded that traditional red blinking light for multifunctional LED lights that indicate the camera’s status. The LED colors on your Frontpoint indoor security camera make it easy to know what status the camera is in.
Red, green, blue, solid, or blinking—what does it all mean? The status LED on your security camera conveys a lot of information if you understand what it’s telling you.
Use this handy guide to know your camera’s status and what you need to do to get that coveted, solid-green light. We’ve modeled this guide after the different light indicators on our Frontpoint Indoor Camera, but it applies to many security cameras on the market.
Solid green light on security camera
A solid green light on a security camera means there is both a local network and an internet connection.
Flashing green light on security camera
A flashing green light on a security camera means there is a local network connection only—no internet connection.
Solid red light on security camera
A solid red light on a security camera means there is NOT a local internet or an internet connection.
Flashing red light on security camera
A flashing red light on a security camera means the camera is booting.
Flashing blue light on security camera
A flashing blue light on a security camera means you are ready for the WiFi protected setup. To enter the WiFi protected setup mode, push the WiFi protected setup button and release it when the light begins flashing blue (about three seconds).
Flashing white light on security camera
A flashing white light on a security camera means you are ready for the standard WiFi mode setup. To enter the standard WiFi mode setup, push the WiFi protected setup button and release it when the light begins flashing white (about six seconds).
Flashing red and green light on security camera
A flashing red and green light on a security camera means you about to perform a factory reset. To enter the factory reset mode, push the WiFi protected setup button and release it when the light begins flashing green and red (about 15 seconds).
WARNING: A factory reset will restore the factory default settings to the camera. If it’s already installed, the camera may need to be removed from the Frontpoint account and re-added after a factory reset.
If you have issues connecting the camera to the account, power cycle the camera (unplug the power jack from the camera and then plug it back in to restore power). If issues persist, you can conduct a factory reset.
