CHAPTER 5: LED Indicators
5.0 LED Indicators
The LED indicators on the transceiver show the
following:
•
POWER/TX
—The indicator should be
constantly ON, once you connect the
transceiver to the host and the hub. When
this indicator blinks, data is being transmitted.
•
LINK/RCV
—When this indicator is
continuosly ON, data link is OK and the
transceiver is ready to receive data. When this
indicator blinks, data is being transmitted.
•
COLLISION
—This indicator should be OFF
most of the time. When it is ON, data
collision is occurring. Data collision is not an
abnormal situation. It may sometimes happen
when the host to which the transceiver is
connected attempts to transmit data on the
network while another host is also attempting
to do the same. When this happens, data
collides on the network. Both hosts will then
back off and attempt to retransmit at random
intervals. The transceiver retries until data
collisions cease.
