Indicates running status 

2.8 V output, max. 4 mA 

 

When the module is running, the LED indicator is driven by the LIGHT pin to indicate different module 
status with its various blink behaviors. For how to set the LED indicator, see 

Neo_M660A GPRS Module AT 

Command Set

LIGHT can output 4 mA current and 2.8 V high level, therefore the LED can be directly connected to this 
pin with a resistor in series. For better luminance, drive the LED with a transistor instead.
