COMPONENT STATUS LIGHTS

Each network component has a single status light. The light is a bicolor, Green/Red, LED. The purpose of the status light is to allow the operator to quickly identify that the system is working properly or, if not,

which component is causing the problem. By using the status lights the operator can quickly pinpoint the system problem to a particular component. See the following table for a complete listing and description of all status light conditions.

NOTE: The green light ON and steady indicates a normal functioning system.
