Your Plaato Airlock has three LEDs installed on it.

These LEDs are programmed to always indicate the current state your device is in. This helps you understand the mode your device is in, and to know if something has gone wrong with it.

Important: Our support team relies on knowing what LEDs are displayed on your Plaato Airlock when troubleshooting issues. Please always communicate this in writing or through a video when you reach out to the team for support.

Setup mode

All three LEDs breathe simultaneously, indicating that the PLAATO Airlock is ready to be connected to WiFi through the setup in the app.

Connecting to the cloud

All three LEDs flash simultaneously, indicating that the PLAATO Airlock is transmitting data to the cloud. This is happening during the setup of the device, and when the PLAATO Airlock is transmitting fermentation data to the cloud.

Note: If all three LEDs are continuously on, and you are unable to reset your device, your Airlock might have become faulty. Create a video showing your Airlock in this state and send it to our Support Team through the messenger app at the bottom of this page.
