When i walk into the room it stops flashing until i walk out again. I **** able to operate the system as normal, no errors showing on the panel. Anyone know why and solution to fix this please?

The continuous flashing of the blue LED on a Risco motion detector wired to a LightSYS2 system indicates that the detector is communicating with the panel. This flashing can occur even when there is no motion, as it represents communication activity, not motion detection.
