If at any point the Status LED is solid red, this indicates the SDC is in an error state. Go to the Hardware Dashboard in Alta Access and restart the services listed under Remote Diagnostics. If this doesn't work, power cycle the SDC (remove power, wait 10 seconds, and apply power). If the error persists, contact Avigilon Alta support.
