Help with controlling old Pentair Intellibrite that turns itself off and on?

[FiveSheep]

I recently bought a house that came with a pool but no information about the equipment. It's all Pentair (EasyTouch control panel, cartridge filter, and pump), and there's a sticker on the panel that says the final inspection was done in October of 2013.

The pool has a light that I believe is a Pentair Intellibrite. I've attached a picture of a light that looks similar. The light is not attached to the control panel, but has a separate light switch. The light turns on, and by flipping the switch a couple of times it can cycle through colors or be made to stop on a color. I figured this much out through trial and error.

Recently the light has started flashing six times after I turn it on. Like, I'll flip it on, it'll turn off-on by itself six times in a row, and then it stays on. I have no idea what this means. I've found some old Intellibrite manuals that talk about flipping the switch to control a bunch of different modes, but the manuals make no mention of any off-on behavior like this that comes from the light. Does anyone know what's going on here?

Thanks!

Welcome to TFP.

I think the light is returning to the last color it was on by cycling itself when turned on.

It does return to the color it was turned off at. But, when I turn it on, it starts at that color, does the blinking off and on, and then stays steady at that color.

I thought that maybe the blinking was to tell me what mode it is currently in (based on the chart on the wiki you linked), but I feel like the blinking is a new behavior, and also, six blinks would indicate that it should be doing a light show mode, not a solid color mode.
