Why is the Connection/Cellular LED off on my cypress solutions CTM-500?
- H
  Haley WilsonAug 5, 2025
  If the Connection/Cellular LED is off on your Cypress Solutions Gateway, it could be due to several reasons: * The device is in an area with no cellular signal. * The radio module, device, or SIM hasn't been activated on the network. * The device configuration has disabled cellular connectivity or the configuration is incorrect. * The cellular antennas aren't physically connected to the CTM-500. To resolve this, ensure that a cellular signal is available, the device/SIM is activated, cellular connectivity is enabled in the configuration, and the cellular antennas are properly connected.

  If the PWR LED is flashing on your Cypress Solutions Gateway, it could mean the device is in standby mode. This can happen if the device configuration has put it into standby mode due to a low ignition state. To solve this, ensure the standby signal is connected to a supply greater than 7 VDC. Also, ensure the supply voltage is greater than 7 VDC.
