B. LED Lights and Audible Alarm Safeties

1. "E" Control Board

At startup, a 5-second delay occurs while the control board conducts an internal timer check. A beep occurs when power is turned off. The red "POWER OK" LED indicates proper control voltage and remains on unless a control voltage problem occurs. The green LEDs 1 through 4 energize and sequence from initial startup as listed in the table below. Note that the order of the LEDs from the outer edge of the control board is 1, 4, 3, 2.
