The C211 antenna board included in the initial versions of the XPLR-AOA-1 and XPLR-AOA-2
hardware kits featured a LED array that indicated the direction towards the C209 tag. Due to
constraints in component availability, later versions of these kits are built without this LED array.
This component is not essential for using the kits as they were originally intended.
