PROG. SIGNAL
These LEDs do not function by default and require the user to write code in order to
control them. If programmed, they display the strength of the cellular signal.
Note:
The three PROG. SIGNAL LEDs can be controlled as follows:
GPIO2: Controls the LED with a single bar above it
GPIO3: Controls the LED with two bars above it
GPIO4: Controls the LED with three bars above it
For more information on using GPIO to control the LEDs, refer to the AT Command Guide.
