2.6.5 LED status
The SOLYS is equipped with two multi-function LED’s to inform the user about the operational status.
Figure 2.11. SOLYS LED status
The power / temperature LED shows if power is present (AC or DC) and the colour indicates the internal temperature of the SOLYS.
Green is above -20 °C and red is below -20 °C. If this LED blinks it indicates an error of the heater fan. A 150 W heater for SOLYS Gear
Drive and 100 W for SOLYS2 is built-in but only operates on AC power.
In cold conditions, when the power LED is red and the SOLYS is AC powered it can take a while before the internal heater has warmed
the interior above -20 °C
The Status LED gives information about the tracker operation. RED indicates starting up or hardware errors, Orange shows the GPS
information not present or lost. Green is the normal operating mode with GPS status. LED off and blinking means the SOLYS is in
power save mode. The tables below show this information including combinations and blinking of the LED’s.
