GPS Status LED
The LED located directly above the File Access LED is used to indicate GPS
status. It will be red when any data is being received from the connected
GPS antenna, and will turn green when a lock is established and the
incoming data is valid.
USB
ProTraXX includes a female type-B USB connector on its front panel. This
port can be used to control ProTraXX, using its standard command set, as a
USB serial device. While many operating systems will detect and install the
driver automatically, some operating systems such as Windows 7 64-bit will
need the user to supply the appropriate driver. This driver is available from
our website, at http://www.alcorn.com.
