TXD- Trasmit data LED (green) blinks to indicate data transitions and remains OFF when no data is transmitted (idle).

RXD- Received data LED (green) blinks to indicate data transitions and remains OFF when no data is received (idle).

DTR- Control LED (yellow)- turns ON at power up to indicate to the DCE that the 2124 is active.

CTS- Indication LED (yellow) - turns ON when the 2124 is ready to receive data from the DCE.

DCD- Status LED (yellow) - Turns ON to indicate that a carrier detect signal is received from the DCE.

CLK- Clock Signal LED (yellow) - blinks to indicate that the transmit clock from the DCE is active. The CLK LED will remain OFF to indicate the absence of the transmit clock.

PWR- LED (green) turns ON as soon as power is applied to the 2124/ 2130.
