Aeotec Micro Smart Switch 2E devices won't stop blinking LED

I used HABmin to pair 2 Aeotec Micro Smart Switch 2E devices to my Aeotec Z-Stick G5 successfully - OpenHAB can control and receive status from the switches.

However, the red LED on the switch is still blinking, even though the manual says it should stop blinking once paired:

HABmin show a configuration parameter for the switch, “2: Make Micro Smart Switch 2nd Edition Blink”, which says it is a double byte value with the LSB and MSB defining different attributes (total time of blink and blink interval). Setting this value to 0 appears unsuccessful and doesn’t stop the blinking.

Anyone get these switches to stop blinking their LED? It is very annoying and visible even through the plastic switch box cover.

Thanks!

Hmm - I found another manual, and it may indicate it is blinking because I have not connected an external switch for it to detect yet:

“1. When the Micro Smart Switch (2nd Edition) is first powered up, it does not know which type of external switch used, toggle the external switch one time and wait 2 seconds. The Micro Smart Switch (2nd Edition) will automatically detect which type of external switch is connected to it’s terminals. (The LED will go from blinking to solid)”

Once I hooked up wall switches to the low voltage port, the LED stopped blinking!

However, one of the switches now leaves the LED on permanently - and changing “2: Make Micro Smart Switch 2nd Edition Blink” to 0 doesn’t turn it off.
