LEDs can be set to provide information from a CoreMini program running in the FIRE 2.

When pressed, activates the “blue set” of LED meanings: each
RGB LED shows the status of the network whose name appears in a blue label

meanings: each RGB LED shows information about a network or FIRE 2 function based
on the white icon or label
below
it.
