System Status Feedback
(LED and Sound)
Important Notice: The rhythm and pause timing of the systems central status LED is important – not the LED color itself.
If the COBI.Bike hub is not connected to your smartphone via Bluetooth the LED color will remain neutral (white). If it is connected and in reach to the hub the color of the central hub status LED is defined by the app interface color of your choice (blue, red, green etc).
In rare cases like recovery states or this might be overruled by system state color, eg. in recovery mode when updating the systems firmware.
The hub communicates the status of the system via the integrated status LED light and different sound feedbacks. Below the following table, you will find videos which visualize the respective statuses of the system.
