Chapter 8 – Interpreting the Indicator
A single status indicator is provided on the SAT-IDP. The indicator goes through 4 states every 2 seconds
generating the patterns in the table below.

In IDP mode the terminal stores Bulletin Board information in internal non-volatile memory and only needs to
tune to the Bulletin Board if the internal information needs updating or if a Traffic channel cannot be found.
Therefore, from power on, the 'Acquiring Bulletin Board' and 'Demodulating Bulletin Board' stages will normally
not occur.
Note: The indicator can be disabled (off state) or enabled via script control. The indicator may therefore not
come on when power is applied. Contact your authorised dealer for details of any script that may have been
programmed into the SAT-IDP.
