03 LED Behaviour

This page covers the different LEDs on the VBOX 3i RTK (v3-v4) units with firmware version 2.8 and the meaning of their behaviours.

PWR Solid green indicates that a suitable power source is connected, unit is fully booted and ready to use.
Solid red indicates that the VBOX is not ready to operate, either because it is still booting up, settings are being written to the unit or because there is an error condition.

Solid green indicates that the event marker input has been activated/triggered.

Flashing green indicates that expected incoming CAN data has been decoded properly and is being logged.

Flashing yellow indicates that there is incoming Serial traffic through this port.

BLUETOOTH V2 Bluetooth module – Flashing blue indicates Bluetooth is initialising communications with a Bluetooth device.
Solid blue indicates the VBOX unit has a Bluetooth connection with another Bluetooth device.

Flashes blue when data is being written to the card.

Solid green when the VBOX is capturing data to the CF card.

SATS Flashing red indicates no satellites in view.
A flashing orange sequence indicates the number of GLONASS satellites currently being tracked. Each flash indicates a satellite with a short pause between each sequence.
	Sequence showing 3 Satellites
A flashing green sequence indicates the number of GPS satellites currently being tracked. Each flash indicates a satellite with a short pause between each sequence.
	Sequence showing 4 Satellites

DIFF/DGPS Flashing orange indicates DGPS is set but not locked (either 2 cm RTK, 40 cm local DGPS or NTRIP).
Solid orange indicates a Float RTK status (either 2 cm RTK or NTRIP) or a Fixed DGPS lock (40 cm local DGPS or SBAS).
Solid green indicates a Fixed RTK lock (either 2 cm RTK or NTRIP).

DUAL Solid orange indicates that dual antenna mode is enabled.
Solid green indicates dual antenna lock is fixed.

IMU Solid orange indicates that the IMU integration is enabled but that no IMU is connected or that the detected IMU is invalid. When using an IMU04, you must make sure that it is: connected using an RLCAB119 to the 25-way D connector is set to Racelogic CAN mode is running the latest release firmware
Flashing orange shows IMU is connected and integration initialisation is running. This will not be completed until the VBOX unit has had a satellite lock while being stationary for 30 seconds.
Flashing green indicates that the integration Initialisation is complete but that it has not detected movement yet.
Solid green indicates that it has detected movement – the IMU integration is working.
