### Lighting and Indicators

OpenEVSE uses the LCD backlight and/or RGB pixels to indicate status:

* **Off**: Initialising
* OpenEVSE active
* **Green**: No EV Connected
* **Yellow**: Connected, but not charging
* **Cyan/Teal**: Charging
* **Red**: Fault
* OpenEVSE Sleeping/Disabled
* **Cyan/Teal**: EV connected
* **Purple/Violet**: EV disconnected

In addition to this the RGB pixels can be used to indicate the WiFi status on the first pixel:

* **Slow Flashing Yellow**: WiFi AP enabled and waiting for connection
* **Fast Flashing Purple/Violet**: WiFi client connected to AP
* **Slow Flashing Yellow**: Connecting to WiFi network as a client
* **Green**: Connected to WiFi network

## WiFi Setup

At setup OpenEVSE will broadcast a WiFi access point (AP) `OpenEVSE_XXXX`. Connect your browser device to this AP (default password: `openevse`) and the captive portal will forward you to the log-in page.
