VII. LED Signals

The Battery Monitor incorporates a bi-color Device status LED (see Figure 1 in Section I).

1. During startup and normal operation

After you power on the Device, the LED gives a single green flash that confirms successful initialization. 

A further series of 3 green flashes indicates the first reception of a CAN message from the NMEA 2000 

network.

During normal operation, the Device’s status LED blinks Green upon transmission of every third «Battery 

Status» message (PGN 127508). The default transmission interval for this message is set to 1.5 seconds;  

you can set your own value (refer to Section IX).

2. During MicroSD card operations

When you insert a MicroSD card into the slot, the LED gives a series of 3 signals which indicate  

the following:

•  GREEN, GREEN, GREEN 

–  the  YDBM.TXT  configuration  file  has  been  read,  and  changes 

 

have  been  applied  to  the  current  Device  settings.  The  YDBMSAVE.TXT  file  with  an  updated 

configuration is saved on the card. 

•  GREEN, RED, RED

  –  the  YDBM.TXT  configuration  file  has  been  read  from  the  card, 

 

but  the  current  configuration  of  the  Device  has  not  changed  (either  the  configuration  file 

does  not  differ  from  the  current  settings,  or  there  are  no  settings  in  the  configuration  file). 

 

The YDBMSAVE.TXT file with an actual configuration is saved on the card. 

•  RED, RED, RED 

– no configuration file found on the card, or the file system is unsupported.

You can safely remove the MicroSD card when the flash sequence is finished.
