LED Diagnostics The OmniSTAR Demodulator Kit has an onboard LED light that can assist with troubleshooting in the event of a malfunction. Figure 1 OmniSTAR Demodulator Diagnostic LEDs Normal Operation During normal operation, the LED will be illuminated green with an orange LED blinking rapidly (1-2 times/second). If the LED is steady green with only one blink every 4-5 seconds, it means the unit is powered up but is not receiving data from the OmniSTAR satellite.
