Status Indicators
Power LED
Indicates
OFF
Power is OFF.
ON Green
Power is ON.
Signal LED
Indicates
TEACH Mode
(signal strength
indicator for
background)
OFF
Background target is not sufficient; use a different
target.
ON Red (flashing)
Frequency of flash indicates alignment. LED flashes
faster as alignment improves; solid ON indicates
best alignment.
RUN Mode
(alignment
indicator for
background
target taught)
OFF
Background target is not being sensed.
ON Red (flashing)
Frequency of flash is proportional to background
target taught; solid ON indicates best alignment.
Output LEDs
Indicate
ON Red
In TEACH mode.
ON Yellow
In RUN mode; target is sensed and outputs are conducting.
