MK4 LED display indicator lights...

Hello -

I have a MK4 and I have a question.  Underneath the LED display there are indicator lights that come on depending on what is happening.  I am using a Raspberry PI4 with Octoprint.  The other day, I had an "error" condition happen and all THREE red lights under the LED display flashed.  All good there.

However, when the printer is doing its thing there is only ONE light on.  Same when it is getting ready.  From my understanding the lights are green when "ready" and blue when "printing".  I know there are 3 lights because the ERROR showed three red lights.  Yet, for any other condition I only se one.  

Is this expected behaviour?  Is there a config I need to add to make ALL THREE LED's activate?  

Sorry for the newbie question - I am just getting started and so far I am thrilled.  REASON I am asking:  I see there are builds in Printables for an addon that will make the display even more obvious and they all show a very bright display.  

Any help would be appreciated!

RE: MK4 LED display indicator lights...

All three control LEDs should light up.

The colors are as follows:

Printer ready = off

Printer is printing = blue

Printing finished = green

Color change during printing = yellow

Errors = red

Maybe there are some other color options, I only listed the ones I came across. If all three LEDs are not lit, I would contact Prusa support with a question.
