GPS status led has 3 different modes: 

 

Fast blinking mode, means, that FlarmLed does not receive anything over serial bus 

(probably needs to set correct baud rate) 

 

Slow blinking means, that GPS status is BAD 

 

Solid light  means, that GPS status is OK. 

4.1.2

 

Horizontal direction LEDs

Vertical direction LEDs 

 
5 LEDs are describing vertical angle of threat divided by 14° 

4.1.4
