Activity ‐ Lights will flash as data is transferred to and from the Raven XE on the remote network.

Power ‐ Indicates the power adapter is connected and there is power getting to the Raven XE.

The Reset button (on the left side of the Raven XE) has two functions. If it is quickly depressed and released, the modem will simply power cycle the internal hardware. If, however, the reset is depressed and held for several seconds (count approximately 30 seconds, and wait for the power light to go off after the light pattern stops), the ALEOS configuration settings will return to the factory defaults.

Caution: If you reset the modem configuration using the reset button, you may to reconfigure your APN.
