Status LEDs Functional Descriptions
Three LED indicators, mounted on the board bracket, provide information on board and connection
status as per the tables below.
D1: Boot-up/PCIe Status LED — Provides general board status information
D3: Camera Link HS status LED — Indicates data status for J3 when connected to a camera or
when receiving forwarded data from another Xtium-CLHS system.
D6: Camera Link HS Forwarded Data status LED — Indicates connection status when the data
forwarding connector J2 is connected to another Xtium-CLHS.

D3: Camera Link HS Status LED (when a camera is connected)
The Xtium-CLHS PX8 implements the mandatory LED states defined by the Camera Link HS
Specification v1.0 RC5. The first column – Priority, defines the signaling order when multiple events
are reported simultaneously.
This LED status table reflects activity on input connector J3 when a camera is connected (i.e. the
Xtium is the Data Forwarding Master).
