Blinking Lights

Quick guide to what your G2 GPS is trying to tell you.

COMM LED, orange
Off = modem is off
Slow blink = searching for signal
Fast blink = network found
Alternating solid and fast = registered, waiting on acknowledgment
Solid = fully connected and talking

GPS LED, green
Off = GPS is off
Slow blink = GPS is on, still working
Fast blink = syncing time
Solid = locked in, good GPS fix

VBUS LED, red
Off = no power
On = powered up

If your COMM and GPS lights are not solid, your system is still trying to figure life out.

If all three are doing what they should, your unit is ready to do its job. Which is a lot more useful than blinking at you for attention.
