Status Indicator
The red LED, labeled “STATUS”, should be lit whenever the unit is synchronized with the Master GTI (the LED should flicker approximately twice a second). The unit should automatically synchronize, but in the event that it doesn’t, momentarily press the button labeled “RESET”.
Repeater Indicators
Of the two red LEDs for the “REPEATER” interface, one is lit when the “RADIO (is) CONNECTED” and the other is lit when “DTMF (is) DETECTED” from the radio.
Telephone Indicators
Of the three red LEDs for the “TELEPHONE” interface, one is lit when the “MODEM (is) IN USE”, one is lit when “DTMF (is) DETECTED” from the telephone line, and one is lit when the telephone “LINE (is)
CONNECTED”.
Power Indicator
Whenever power is applied, the green LED, labeled “POWER”, should be lit (there is no off/on switch).

Alarms
The Site Controller computer can receive two types of alarm messages from the Master GTI. One, called the LIC alarm (after an earlier interconnect system), indicates a connection problem between the Site Controller computer and the Master GTI, or a problem in the Master GTI itself.
The other type of alarm message, called the RIC alarm (after a second part of the same earlier interconnect system), indicates a connection problem between the Site Controller computer and a specific GTI unit, or a problem in the specific GTI unit itself. A RIC alarm can be received for each specific GTI unit.
IAM
Skip this section if your ELI system is not equipped with an IAM. The locations of the DIP switches, indicators, and reset button on the front panel of the IAM are shown in Figure 44.
