ChargePoint Home Flex lights: what each colour and pattern means

The Home Flex has a round LED status ring. Its four colours are easy to remember: green is ready, blue is plugged in, white is about Wi-Fi and activation, red is a fault. What matters is whether the colour is steady or moving: blinking green means a charging schedule is set, and pulsing blue means it is actively charging.

The light is the round LED ring on the front of the station. ChargePoint says its brightness can be adjusted.
