3.4.1 LEDs
Three LEDs are located on the upper-left side of the unit, above the screen. The green LED
is the battery charge indicator; the yellow LED indicates an application; the blue LED indi-
cates whether the radio is on or off. When you press [ENTER], the LED flashes green to
indicate that the unit has been powered up. The LED table following outlines the behaviour
of the LED while the unit is docked in a charger.
Keep in mind that the application running on the Ikôn can dictate how the LED operates.
Review the documentation provided with your application to determine LED behaviour.
If the unit is attached to an external power supply, the Ikôn LED reflects the battery
charge status.
