This section describes how specific components operate on the LS425 and LS445.
On-Board LED
The single on-board LED acts as a power-on light (similar to the green LED on other players) and will illuminate when power is applied to the player and remain in a solid state.
The LED flashes using red status (Err) LED codes described below. The LED will also flash during the firmware update process and cease flashing when the update is complete.
LED | Indication | |
|---|---|---|
Red status (Err) | Flashes a certain number of times to indicate which error is occurring. The flash codes are described below. | |
2 | Unspecified error | |
3 | Network recovery script is preparing to run on a device configured for network recovery. | |
4 | No upgrade file found | |
5 | Failed to load kernel module | |
6 | Board is not capable of running the current firmware version | |
7 | A piece of on-board hardware is not working correctly. | |
8 | Problem related to the storage device (either the USB drive or microSD card) | |
9 | Problem related to the registry/NAND | |
10 | The autorun script encountered a load/run error. | |
11 | WiFi-related error | |
12 | Unable to find a bootable image | |
On-Board Switch / SVC Button
The on-board switch is connected to the GPIO02, which is pulled low when the service (SVC) button is pressed. Conversely, a pull-up on the button normally sets the GPIO02 to be pulled high.
Reset Switch / GPIO Button
The Reset button is connected to the reset circuit. Pressing the reset button will send an initial signal to the system software and holding the reset button low for approximately four seconds will cause a hard reset.
MicroSD Slot
The LS425 and LS445 have one MicroSD slot, which supports transfer modes up to UHS-1 DDR50 (50MB/s). There is a 2TB limit on the storage capacity of microSD cards used with the player.
Wireless Module
The optional WiFi module also has Bluetooth functionality.
