If LED blinks ON/OFF three times during the power-up cycle and then turns OFF,

an Ethernet loop back connector should be connected to the IM Network Cable and

the LWX-1 should be power cycled. If the blinking during power-up does not recur,

then the IM Network Cable is good, and the end-user device should be checked.
When IM Network Cable is properly connected to the host device, the end-user can

request a full LWX-1 Diagnostics Report to perform any further required diagnosis.

The following section describes the information provided in this diagnostic report.

will also be important information for the user to verify that SIRIUS radio signal is

available as this is required for successful activation.
