The SHOUT ns features two (2) special LED patterns that indicate the following:
Emergency Mode Active
: All six (6) LEDs blink simultaneously in a 0.5 second on and
0.5 second off pattern for as long as the emergency mode is active and the device is
awake. When the device is asleep, the 6 LED pattern stops but the power LED blink rate
changes from once every 5 seconds for normal mode to once every 2.5 seconds for
emergency mode.
Upon Charger Connection
: When power is on*, the Battery, GPS, Iridium, and Status
LEDs blink in clockwise sequence for 3 seconds when power is applied.
After a special function has ended, the LEDs revert to their standard operating state.
* Note
: There are no LED indicators while the SHOUT ns is powered off and while plugged in
and charging. To verify charge status, the SHOUT ns must be turned on.
