It has Wi-Fi and power status LEDs on the front, and a USB port on the side that can be used to connect to a USB storage device, such as a thumb drive (not included), to store event-triggered video clips. Note: If you don’t see the lights blinking properly, use a paperclip to press the reset button on the side of the Sync Module above the USB-A port.
