UBox User Guide 51
Boot-Up The following table explains what the SYSTEM status lights mean during the boot-up
process.
UBox 4100: Has three (one green and two red) SYSTEM indicators
UBox 2100:, Has four (one green, two amber and one red).
The green has the same meaning on both units. The UBox 2100's two amber
indicators are equivalent to the UBox 4100’s red indicator. The additional red
indicator on the UBox 2100 indicates error.
SYSTEM Status Light 1
Look at the SYSTEM status light 1 (the green leftmost light under SYSTEM).

failed to boot up.

If the SYSTEM 1 (green) light
alternates on/off with either

when SYSTEM 1 turns off,
SYSTEM 2 or 3 turns on and
vice versa, the UBox has
encountered an error while
loading its firmware.
