Using AT command ^IPS, the 9602-LP can also be set to power up by pressing the power button when DC
power is first applied to pin 1 or pine 9. If the device is sleeping in between reporting cycles, pressing the
power button will turn the 9602-LP on for 10 seconds. During this time tracking mode can be exited by sending

5.4 LED Settings
The 9602-LP has five status LEDs. These include power indicator, Iridium signal strength, GPS availability,
SBD transmission status and Emergency mode alert. They offer users a quick visual check to ensure proper
operations. These LEDs provide the following information during Normal tracking mode:
Power LED: lights up when power is applied to the 9602-LP and power-on button is pressed.
GPS LED: stays solid when there is a valid GPS position fix, blinks when there is 2D fix or using
dead reckoning, and stays off when unable to obtain a position fix. Users have to watch closely
for the LED since it can briefly stay on.
Iridium LED: stays solid when the Iridium signal strength is between 3–5 bars, blinks when the
Iridium signal strength is between 1–2 bars, and stays off when the Iridium signal strength is at
0 bars. Since the Iridium modem is on over a short period during a location report, this LED will
light up very briefly and users might not be able to see if not watched closely.
