The XP8 has LEDs on its outer edge that change colors based on the AC outlet’s status and power load. This feature helps users quickly determine each outlet’s availability, ON/OFF status, and overload status by glancing at the XP8 device.
- LED OFF: This means the outlet is NOT configured and open. It is a free outlet.
- BLUE: The outlet is configured but currently in OFF mode.
- GREEN: The outlet is configured and currently in ON mode.
- YELLOW: It is currently ON, but its power draw is near the top range. It is still safe, but it is close to the high limit.
- RED: The XP8 outlet is currently overloaded because a device is drawing more than the 8A limit. We recommend disconnecting the offending device immediately to prevent permanent damage.
