3.2 Power Supply
Power over pin 9 (must be able to supply a minimum of 160mA at 3.3V to 5V )
External – use the same power adapter as GPS (includes 2 European and one Australian power
connectors)
3.3 Indicator LEDs
Bluetooth LED (one LED only in different states):
• LED flashing one time every two seconds CSA is powered but not discoverable or
