    Not sure if this is normal or not (strange I never noticed it before) but the Black Box USB icon is flickering red during a cut. Everything is working quite well, just wondering if this is normal or should I be concerned.
    Thanks.

    There are two LEDs behind the logo: Red one for RX, and a Green one for TX (Recieve and Transmit respectively)
    During a cut you send a lot of data to the controller, so the Receive LED (RED) is blinking more than the Transmit LED (just sending some feedback and acknowledgements, lot less data)

    All normal
