How to Activate a Wildeye. LED Sequences.

Transport Mode

When you receive a Wildeye for the first time it will be in transport mode. Transport mode is a power savings mode. The Wildeye will not log or transmit so it is also safe for transporting by air (when IATA labeling and packaging guidelines are followed).

There are 2 methods to determine if a Wildeye is in Transport mode.

1. Press the button on the Wildeye device. If the first LED sequence is a rapid blue flash then the device is in Transport mode. Quickly let go of the button to remain in Transport mode.

2. Through the Wildeye web portal or app. A Black colour status denotes Transport mode.

To Activate a Wildeye from Transport mode, press and hold the front button until the rapid blue flashing LED turns solid blue. The Wildeye will then attempt a connection. Read below to understand the LED flashing sequence for a connection attempt. You will need to ensure a successful connection (Green Light) to activate your Wildeye. If the connection is not successful (Red Light) then the Wildeye will remain in Transport mode.

Note: You can't bring a Wildeye out of transport mode remotely. Please ensure that your Wildeye is fully activated before leaving site.

LED Connection Sequence

Forcing an immediate connection (in relatively good signal) is usually as simple as pressing the button on the front of your Wildeye and then checking the status in the app when the LED turns solid GREEN. If you run into problems however, you can check below to interpret the LED sequences on your Wildeye.

If a Wildeye is not in Transport Mode, when you press the button (or bring a magnet close to the bottom left of the front sticker on models without a button) the following LED sequences can be observed:

Note: The LED sequence below is for the latest generation Wildeye devices (4G).

• As soon as the button is pressed, the LED should turn solid blue to indicate that it has turned on. If it does not turn solid blue then refer to the error codes in the next section.

• The light will stay solid blue until the Wildeye has managed to register on an IoT network. This can take a few seconds, or could take as long as 3 minutes in low signal environments.

• Once the Wildeye has finished attempting to register then the LED will either flash GREEN or BLUE to indicate a successful registration or RED to indicate a failed registration. See the error codes in the next section to understand the RED flashing error codes.

• If the registration is successful then the Wildeye will flash BLUE. Sometimes, in very good signal conditions, the Wildeye will connect to the cloud servers immediately after a successful registration. In this instance there will be no time to show the BLUE flashes and the LED will immediately show GREEN flashes to indicate both a successful registration and a successful connection to the cloud servers.

• You can determine the signal strength by looking at the number of GREEN or BLUE flashes as determined in the table below.

Note: The signal strength reported through the Wildeye app or Web Portal shows the last successful connection. It may be obsolete if you have moved your Wildeye to a poor signal and so the following LED sequence can be observed on the device.
