# Status & Activity LED

<div align="left"><img src="/files/-M2tNV9FgWB11A87doqr" alt=""></div>

## During Boot-Up

During boot-up, the camera will perform a **self-check** to guarantee proper functionality. During this check, the status and activity LED will show the following:

| **Status LED**   | Activity LED                                                                                 |
| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Constant RED** | <p><strong>Flashing RED</strong> <br>indicates an activation of</p><p>the camera trigger</p> |

For more details on the self-check, please refer to section [Powering ON the Camera](/hardware-and-interfaces/camera/a6k-lite-camera/powering-on-the-camera.md).

## During Operation (after self-check)

Based on the outcome of the self-check, the LED status will be the following:

| Status LED                                                                                                                                                                                        | Activity LED                                                                        |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

| <p><strong>Flashing RED while constant GREEN</strong><br>indicates the camera received a trigger</p><p>signal from rover</p>                                                                      |                                                                                     |
| <p><strong>Flashing RED only</strong></p><p>indicates the self-check failed and camera</p><p>is not operational <br>(check section <a href="/pages/-M2pM6gIr7_PjiUHQShq">Troubleshooting</a>)</p> |                                                                                     |

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.phoenixlidar.com/hardware-and-interfaces/camera/a6k-lite-camera/status-and-activity-led.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
