Button and LED Operations
SPS585 GNSS smart antenna only.
To turn on the SPS585 GNSS smart antenna, hold the On/Off button down for 2 seconds until the Positioning icon flashes and then release the button.
To turn off the SPS585 GNSS smart antenna, hold the On/Off button down until the Positioning icon turns off and then release the button.
To reset the SPS585 GNSS smart antenna to factory default settings, hold the On/Off button down until only the battery icon is illuminated. Continue to hold the button down until the Positioning icon flashes (about 15 seconds) and then release immediately.
The general rules to interpret the LED flash patterns are as follows:
- Solid. Indicates you are getting what you want and it is okay to do a positioning task.
- Slow flash. Indicates an intermediary condition, the mode is ready, or you have to wait until something improves.
- Fast flash. Indicates an error condition and you need to take action to fix it.
