If you program a Mote with Blink, the Red LED will flash once every second. This is expected behavior from this app. If you want to go back to SurgeView demo, you need to re-program the base station with surge_reliable application. This has been explained in Getting Started Guide. Alternatively, your better option to visualize network and sensor data is MoteView that can be downloaded for free from Crossbow's website below.

If the D2 light is the red one, then it probably means that your batteries are low.  When the batteries on my Mica2 motes run low, the red light flashes and they act unreliably (read: unable to program them, and the radios work only sporadically).
