LED and Push Button Usage

The iO881A features a dual color led which is used to signalize multiple states and activities. Most of the time the device will stay in a power
saving state in which the LED is switched off to save power. 

Pressing the Push Button while connecting the iO881A to a PC activates the HCI interface independent from any firmware settings.

Pressing the Push Button later on will show the internal firmware state as a blinking pattern on the dual color LED.  

The following table outlines the firmware states and corresponding LED signals:
