Receiver lights and what they mean
The receiver has lights on its front panel to indicate what it's doing. A single channel receiver has
two lights – 'Status' and 'Central heating'. A dual channel receiver has an additional light for 'Hot water'.
This is what the lights mean:

Notes
The Hive receiver protects the boiler from damage
that may occur if it's switched on and off very
quickly. Once the boiler has been switched on (or
off), it will not change state again for 1 minute as a
protective measure.
This light is only present on dual channel receivers.
See 'Central heating'.
The receiver is connected to the rest of the Hive
system and operating normally.
