2. The green LED on Skynode will blink while AuterionOS is booting and turn solid once the system is up and running.\
   The blue LED turns on as soon as the MAVLink stream is available.\
   The red LED blinks if the Data Link module is not connected.\
   LED meanings are [summarized here](/hardware-integration/skynode/skynode-led-meanings.md).
