Instruction manual

sure that the unit is able to acquire an adequate signal from

the satellites. This is indicated by the LED light on the front of

the Shadow Tracker™ unit. The LED will be RED when the unit

is powered on and there is NO signal being received from the

satellites. When there is an adequate signal the LED will turn

GREEN.

Note: Be aware that if the unit has been powered off for 8

hours or

more it may take up to 10 minutes from the time the

antenna is connected and the unit is powered on

for the unit to acquire an adequate signal from the

satellites and the LED to turn GREEN. If it takes longer than

15 minutes to acquire a signal then the antenna must be

moved to a more suitable location. If the LED is not GREEN

then the unit cannot determine the vehicles location or

speed and the system will not function properly.
