IDLE RUN
In
IDLE
mode, the two LEDs alternate
flashing green and the visibility light will
be OFF.
In
RUN
mode, the two LEDs are solid
green and the amber visibility light
flashes periodically.
IDLE
mode saves power and suspends
data acquisition and transmission.
That way you can switch to
RUN
mode
without having to open the lid.
Use
IDLE
mode for short-term inactivity,
in preparation for deployment (e.g.
transport to deployment site).
RUN
mode is for full system
functionality including: data acquisition,
processing, data transmission and on
board logging to SD card.
Use
RUN
mode during deployment.
Note: Spotter DOES NOT collect data when in
IDLE
mode.
Important
• Spotter needs to be switched into
RUN
mode for deployment.
• If Spotter is in
IDLE
mode, you can switch to
RUN
mode by holding a
magnet onto the recessed area directly on top of the electronics box
until the lights turn off. Or, if the transparent lid is screwed on, hold the
magnet onto the recessed round area in the lid for 3 seconds.
• The flashing pattern of the 2 user LEDs and the visibility light will reveal
which mode Spotter is in. (See next page.)
• In
IDLE
mode, the
SYSTEM
and
GO
LEDs will shut off after 3 minutes to
save power.
When switched to
RUN
mode, the two user LEDs (
SYSTEM
and
GO
)
communicate system status and signal when the Spotter is ready to deploy.
SYSTEM LED
Communicates the status of system hardware.
GO LED
Communicates the operating state of device.
This includes GPS connectivity, solar and battery charge.
