Indicator Lights
When the Network LED of the Raven X glows continuously, a successful
connection has been made. There is a specific pattern to the LED lights to
indicate its operation mode when your Raven X is connected to power and an
antenna.
Figure 4-4: Indicator lights
•Network - When lit solid, indicates a successful connection to the cellular
network with an IP address given and a channel acquired.
• Signal - Light shows the strength of the signal and may be nearly solid
(strong signal) or flashing (weaker signal). A slow flash indicates a very weak
signal.
•Activity - Lights will flash as data is transferred to and from the Raven X on
the remote network.
• Service - When on, indicates when the connection is HSUPA/HSDPA or
UMTS. When unlit, indicates EDGE or GPRS.
•Power - Indicates the power adapter is connected and there is power getting
to the Raven X.
The Reset button (on the left side of the Raven X) has two functions. If it is
quickly depressed and released, the modem will simply power cycle the internal
hardware. If, however, the reset is depressed and held for several seconds (count
approximately 30 seconds, and wait for the power light to go off after the light
pattern stops), the ALEOS configuration settings will return to the factory defaults.
