Blinking green
There are two ways that the terminal blinks green:
Once a second: The terminal blinks green once a second when it is in sleep mode and
not in a terminal charger.
Four times a second: The terminal blinks green four times a second when it has been
properly placed into a terminal charger.
The terminal can be removed from its charger when the LED indicator starts blinking green.
The LED indicator should blink green when the terminal sleeps (see Putting a Terminal to
Sleep). It should also blink green when a task is being selected (see Loading a Task onto a
Terminal). The terminal will also blink green during some parts of the firmware loading
process.
Warning: Do not remove the battery when the terminal is sleeping, or you may lose all of
the data that has been collected.
What to do if the terminal isn't blinking green while in a terminal
charger or when selecting a task
