9932-EMDE Card Edge Status/Error Indicators and Display

Figure 3-7 shows and describes the 9932-EMDE card edge status indicators 
and display. These indicators and the display show status and error conditions 
relating to the card itself and remote (network) communications (where 
applicable). Because these indicators are part of the card itself and require no 
external interface, the indicators are particularly useful in the event of 
communications problems with external devices such as network remote 
control devices.
