Status LEDs

LED Colour Description
Red-Green-Blue Directly after startup, the LED blinks during atmospheric pressure calibration for 25 seconds. After calibration, the pressure datum is set to 1000 mbar. At sites where the atmospheric pressure is logged separately using a reference calibration device, the datum can be changed to reflect the local atmospheric pressure based on the reference data.
Red BDS is happily logging data to the microSD.
Green Well-done! Your BDS has achieved perfect calibration, think of this as 'sensor enlightenment'. Note: This is only for high precision lab calibration, not for field deployments.
Blue This is only used when sensors are in an experimental 'swarm mode'.
