Status Light (LED) Flashes
The red Status Light on the side of the VR2C case flashes based on the task being performed or the status of
the receiver. The flashes can be interpreted using the table below. The Status Light is an LED (Light
Emitting Diode) and has been referred to as such in past documentation.

When the VR2C is first powered, it will flash four times to
indicate that it has successfully completed the start-up process.
After the four flashes, the Status Light will begin flashing based
on its status. The most common flash pattern is two quick flashes
every 5 seconds to indicate the receiver is recording. If the
receiver’s Status Light flashes anything other than what is
explained in this section, then contact VEMCO’s Customer
Support team for assistance.
