Front Panel Controls and Indicators
Figure 2-1, below, shows the chassis front panel. The panel has the following controls and indicators:
•
The Power switch turns the computer on and off. This switch, at the top right of the computer, is
not shown in Figure 2-1.
•
The two-character display shows various codes depending on the state of the computer. It is also
used during the computer’s self-test feature. See Chapters 7 and 8 for more on this display.
•
The Power light is lit when the computer is turned on.
•
The Turbo light indicates system activity.
•
In some configurations, the Turbo button lets you put the system into a special diagnostic state
known as LEVEL7. This is necessary only if you are having certain hard-to-diagnose system
problems. Please see Chapter 7 for more information.
•
The Reset button lets you reset the computer from the control panel. When you press the Reset
button, the hardware resets and the computer reboots. To avoid losing any data, make sure there
are no applications running and the H.D.D. light is out before you press the Reset button.
•
The H.D.D. light is lit whenever there is activity on the SCSI bus: the computer is reading from
or writing to a disk or tape.
