Why does my CDP-2 Blink when my DS Controller has a Steady Green Light?

Reason(s) your CDP-2 is Blinking

The CDP-2 will blink when it is getting minimal power through the DS controller to power it.

To avoid powering the CDP-2 from a separate line coming from the panel, it uses minimal power from the DS controller itself. Therefore, the automatic light on the CDP-2 will blink even when the automatic status on the DS controller shows it is powered but not activated (steady green light).

When the device activates and the DS controller has a green flashing light, then the yellow “DEICE ON” light will start blinking on the CDP-2.

Please refer to the installation manual for more information.
