It is normal during the first minute of initial power that the receiver status

LED shows no activity and remains off. During the second minute the status

LED will start to flash the amber or red fault strings. Typically, during

normal operation, a flashing green LED will occur within 90 seconds of

initial power. If there is no LED indication of any sort displayed after 90

seconds you should check the inline fuse or circuit breaker.

A blinking 

Red

 LED indicates an internal fault condition. If this condition

persists contact Raymarine Technical Services.
