On an RF500M, is it normal for the lights to go on when it is first powered up and then for the lights to go off?

Yes. When the RF500M is powered up (or whenever the internal processor is reset), each of the LED indicators on the modem will illuminate, cycle through a series of colors, and turn off. This is an indication that the RF500M is running the Power On Self-Test (POST). If the LEDs remain illuminated, this is an indication that the POST has failed.
