Activity LED
The Activity LED behaves differently depending on the Part Number of the Main Board. On appliances where the Part Number ends in 2, the Activity LED blinks green when there is Ethernet activity. On appliances where the Part Number ends in 3 or higher, the appliance has a

Event Triggering
The VB6000 event triggering feature lets you use an external switch to control the function of the VBrick. This section provides some examples of how to use this feature. In all the examples, a high event is triggered when the switch is closed and a low event is triggered when the switch is opened. The event trigger inputs on the VBrick recognize a high voltage anywhere above +8 volts DC with an upper limit of +12 volts. A low voltage is anything at or below 0 volts DC with a lower limit of
Note You cannot execute a script either with the IR Remote Control or using an event trigger if IWS is currently running in Edit mode. If you run a script directly from IWS, it automatically exits Edit mode and terminates the active editing session.
Example 1
Connect an external power supply (+8V to +12V) and a switch directly to the ground pin and an event pin of the COM1 port on the VBrick.
