Hi,

I have just upgraded my comfort to this new version. After the upgrade the Home light on the keypad did not come on. Prior to the upgrade it was coming on.

I did arm. the Armed led did come on. I disarmed. The Armed led went off, but the Home (Off) led did not come on.

Your help will be appreciated.

Many thanks,
Clinton.

Which keypad do you have, KP05., KP06 etc?
Is this repeatable?
If you arm again and disarm, the security off light still does not come on?

I get the same on my KP03/4s

Actually ignore my last comment as a system reset on both of my systems ans the led is back again.

It is a KP04 keypad. I have tried arming and disarming and multiple reboots and reuploading the configuration, but none of these has worked. The home / off led has not come back on since the firmware upgrade.

Thanks.

ULT 6.020 should not have this problem
Could you power off and on the Keypad? All the LEDs should blink momentarily
We suspect that the OFF LED may be faulty

Hi,

I powered the keypad off and on. All the lights did blink momentarily. Hence the Off LED is not faulty.
I tried resetting the system again, but the Off LED is stil not coming on.

Please assist.
Clinton.
