5.7.1 Battery Diagnose Function
The Diagnose function sends a command to the lights to display the charge level of the batteries.

flashes. The light must be steady-on state for the flashes to be visible:
DIAGNOSE, HIGH: 75% to 100%
DIAGNOSE, MED: 50% to 75%

5.7.2 Radio Health Diagnose Function
The Radio Health Diagnose function sends a command to the lights to display a radio health indication.
The A704-5 light continually monitors the health of its radio module and automatically restarts the radio if
needed. A count is kept of these restart events; intermittent radio problems are thus automatically
recovered from and are very likely to go unnoticed in normal operation. For chronic radio health issues,
the A704-5 light will automatically flash five times every minute.
To enter Diagnose Mode on the controller:
Press DIAGNOSE (The DIAGNOSE LED starts flashing)
Press ENTER (The DIAGNOSE LED is on)
