Lit & Flashing LED Keys

Many of the keys on the control surface of the VM200 are translu- cent and ﬁxed in position over an LED light that can provide status information.

In general, these keys ﬂash when they are available for selection, and light up continuously when they are selected. (Don’t be alarmed the ﬁrst time you press the Routing function key and a couple dozen lights start ﬂashing! This is normal.)

LED Condition	Meaning

dark	off, deselected
