The Fi Collar displays different light patterns in different situations, outside of toggling the Fi Light on/off.
The most common cases are when the Fi Collar is on the Fi Base, or in Lost Dog Mode.
Common light patterns:
- Solid Blue
- Fully charged
- Pulsing Blue
- Charging
- Pulsing Red
- 'Lost Dog' Mode - will automatically turn on, & pulse red. This will make your dog easier to spot at night or in low visibility conditions. For more information on Lost Dog Mode, see: Lost Dog Mode
- Pulsing Green
- Activated
- Restarting
- Firmware Update
- Please note: the collar must be connected to mobile (blue circle with your initial) to transfer a firmware update to the collar. Firmware updates typically take less than 1 minute, but if there is an interruption the collar may continue to attempt for a few minutes.
- If you encounter an extended period of pulsing/blinking please reset the Fi collar: How Do I Turn Off or Reset My Fi Module?
