Power + Internet Alert scenarios

In general,  a steady Red LED indicates an alarm condition, steady Green LED indicates a normal running state, and blinking Blue LED indicates communications with MySpool cloud servers.

Startup before WiFi configuration: Red, Green, Blue blinks, then steady Blue LED is lit indicating no cloud connection.
Startup after WiFi has been configured: Red, Green, Blue blinks, all OFF, two Blue blinks, then Green is lit indicating normal running condition.

Do not be concerned if you sometimes get a Power ON alert without getting a Power OFF alert first.  These may be caused by an electrical spike on the line or a sporadic voltage drop. Either one may cause our device to restart - this is what a single Power ON alert signifies. If you get one without getting a Power OFF alert first, you can ignore it.

P4 comes with two 2-pin JST connectors. The first one is marked APP on top and CONT1 on the bottom. And the second one is marked CONT2. There are two considerations to keep in mind when using these connectors:

1. CONT1 must be open when your device is being configured, otherwise the Blue and White setup window will not pop up when you connect to SAS-XXXXXX network.

2. CONT2 must be open when power is restored or your device is powered up when plugged in.

MySpool Power Failure Alert requires batteries only for a few seconds to send an OFF alert. Then it shuts down and does not use batteries again until the next Power OFF event. One set of batteries should be good for about 500 such events - or for as long as their shelf life permits.  We recommend replacing the batteries every few years to ensure no interruptions in the device's life cycle.

Alkaline batteries last 5-10 years but should be tested annually. Unplug your device, wait for the Power OFF alert, then plug it back in and confirm that you also received a Power ON alert.

1. Unplug your Power Alert device from A/C
2. Pop the lid using a flat screwdriver in one of the two slots
3. Remove one battery
4. Locate and push the CLEAR button. While keeping the CLEAR button depressed, plug your Power Alert in A/C
5. After 20 sec release the CLEAR button. Your device has been cleared of WiFi information
6. Unplug your device and leave it unplugged for 30 sec
7. Insert the third battery back in and plug the device into A/C
