LED Indications
Three LEDs indicate the status of the device and its components - Positioning (GNSS), Remote ID (RID) and Status (STAT).
- Positioning (GNSS) informs about the current state of the satellite positioning system.
- Remote ID (RID) informs about everything related to the Network & Direct Remote ID functionality.
- Status (STAT) informs about the overall device status.
Device States
Possible states are the following:
Blue gradually pulsing on all indicators
The number of non-pulsing LEDs shows the current battery charge. E.g. 50% charged, 1 solid and 1 pulsing blue LEDs, 100% charged = 3 solid blue LEDs. Battery charge can be briefly checked by short pressing the button once while turned off.
One or more indicators are pulsing yellow
Yellow means that the pulsing component is not ready for a flight or has a temporary outage. Wait for the component to get ready (green). In cases of poor signal, move to an area with better coverage. Find more information about this subject in Troubleshooting.
All indicators are green lit
In this state, the device is ready for the flight to be started. Do the short press of the button to start your flight.
Running green on all indicators
For the proper function of Network Remote ID, each flight needs to be successfully created and then ended on our cloud. It is indicated by running green LEDs (please keep in mind this may take some time). The communication may fail due to a poor cellular signal or internal error on the server-side. In this case, the device might end up in an error state and then it needs to be restarted.
Flashing white on one or more indicators
In this state, the device sends the Network Remote ID data to our cloud and broadcasts Direct Remote ID data to everyone around via Bluetooth. The particular Remote ID technology is defined in the Configuration and cannot be changed during the flight.
Flashing white on STAT and pulsing yellow on RID/GNSS
GNSS or RID (or both) can have a temporary outage (e.g. lost GNSS or weak LTE). This will be indicated by pulsing a yellow LED on a component that is affected. Please note that Remote ID data cannot be refreshed in this state.
STAT and GNSS indicators are flashing white, RID indicator is red lit
If cloud communication fails during flight, the flight continues without interruption. This condition is indicated by a solid red RID indicator.
RID indicator is blinking red
When the device has no active subscription / cannot connect to any account / detect an inserted SIM card, the red RID indicator blinks rapidly every 5 seconds.
STAT and GNSS indicators are green, the RID indicator is red lit
After a flight ends with cloud communication failure, the device returns to the 'Flight Ready' state. However, cloud connectivity remains unavailable, indicated by a solid red RID indicator.
Running cyan on all indicators
The device is performing shutdown tasks and will soon turn off. Please wait until it finishes. If the device's cellular signal is poor or the configuration has changed, powering off might take up to one minute.
Running rainbow on all indicators
The firmware on the device is being updated to the latest version / Reset to factory defaults is in progress. Please, do not turn off the device or disconnect it from the USB (if already connected). Wait for the update / reset to be finished.
All indicators are pink lit
Hold the button for 15 seconds to perform device power reset. All LED indicators will light up solid pink to indicate the power reset got executed.
Pink indicators turn off sequentially
Immediately after the Power Reset, if the button remains held, the device enters a factory reset countdown. The LEDs turn off one by one during the countdown. To complete the Settings Factory Reset, continue holding the button until all LEDs turn off and the RGB animation begins. Once finished, the LEDs light up white for 1 second, and the device restarts with factory settings.
All indicators are white lit
The device has entered recovery mode. There are two situations when it might happen:
- Device encountered a fatal error in the firmware and needs to be hard restarted (15 s button press).
- You have plugged the recovery dongle inside the EXT port. In recovery mode, you are able to update the device firmware via USB. To quit this mode, hold the button for 15 s.
One of the indicators is red lit
An unrecoverable error happened on the device side. It might be caused by various reasons, from GNSS/LTE timeout to the unreachable cloud for Network Remote ID functionality. Please turn the device off and on with a button long press (2 s). If the problem persists, go to Troubleshooting.
One or more indicators are blinking red
Some user-oriented actions may fail due to the unreadiness of the device or its components. For example, this can happen if you want to start a flight before the GNSS/RID is fully prepared or if you're going to turn on the device when discharged. Please try to repeat the action once the device is in the proper state.
