Status LED

The LED on the connector panel provides valuable information on the

status of your Sirius Weather system.

The LED blinks green while the system is operating normally. If the unit

detects a problem, the LED blinks amber to indicate a warning or red to

indicate an error. The pattern of the LED blink is a code representing the

nature of the problem. For multiple warnings/errors the codes are given in

sequence with a 1.5 second pause between the indications.
The following table shows the LED status codes and their meanings:
