Power LED:

LED light on = power-on; LED light off = power-off

Low Battery LED:

LED light on = low battery voltage; LED light off = normal battery voltage

Vibrate-mode LED:

LED light on = vibrate-mode on; LED light off = vibrate-mode off

Slope LED on X/Y Axis:

LED light on = slope-mode in X or Y axis (need to actuate w/remote control) Flashing LED means self-calibration on X/Y direction mode on (see Self-Calibration section)
