MTX-8485 STATUS INDICATORS
The MTX-8485 transmitter provides the following front panel LED status indicators to aid
in installation and troubleshooting:
DATA
These indicators turn green when any data activity is present. An active DATA TX LED
indicates data is present at the input terminals to the MTX-8485. An active DATA RX
LED indicates data is present at the output terminals of the MTX-8485. When configured
for RS-485, an active Hi-Z LED indicates the MTX-8485 has seized the data line to allow
data flow. The intensity of the indicators will vary with input data patterns, however, the
Hi-Z LED will typically appear dimmer than the data Tx and Rx LEDs. The data channels
associated with these front panel DATA LEDs are listed below.
