Glows red to indicate an idle condition of Binary

 

“1” data on the respective terminal interface signals.

 

Green indicates Binary “0” data.

RTS

Glows green to indicate that the Request to Send

 

signal from the DTE is active.

CD

Glows red if no carrier signal is being received from

 

the remote modem. Green indicates that the remote

 

modem’s carrier is being received.

DTR

Glows green to indicate that the Data Terminal

 

Ready signal from the terminal is active.

ER

Glows red to indicate the likelihood of a Bit Error in

 

the received signal.

TM

Glows red to indicate that the Model 1185 has

 

been placed in Test Mode. The unit can be placed in

 

test mode by the local or remote user. For RDL, the

 

TM LED will only glow red on the local unit.

NS

Glows red to indicate that the local Model 1184/1185

 

has not yet connected with the remote 1184/1185.
