259. LED IndicatorsThe ETH-100 unit contains many different LED indicators, each of which conveysimportant information about the status of the unit, connected drives and Ethernetnetwork. These LEDs and their functions are summarized here.9.1 Module and Ethernet IndicatorsThe module and Ethernet indicators are located between the MMI port and theChannel A drive port. Figure 8 indicates the functions of these LEDs (perspective iswith MMI port to the left of the LEDs).MS (Module Status)Currently reservedNS (Network Status)Currently reservedLNK (Ethernet LiNK)Solid green when validnetwork link existsACT (Ethernet ACTivity)Flashes red when networkactivity is detectedFigure 8: Module and Ethernet Indicators9.2 Drive Connector IndicatorsEach drive communication channel RJ45 connector contains two integrated greenLEDs.
