Figure 8 shows a photograph of the top membrane of a FIRE2 in active use, with the blue
set of status indicators active, meaning that transmissions are occurring on five channels and
errors on one.
As a further cue to network activity, the intensity of these LEDs is proportional to the amount of
traffic on the corresponding network. Slower traffic on a network will cause the network’s LED
to flash more dimly, while heavy traffic will cause the LED to be brighter. Note that the blink
rate remains the same regardless of traffic level.
Figure 8: neoVI FIRE 2 Membrane LED Display and Keypad Showing Active LEDs.
In this image, the blue set of LED
meanings is active, as indicated by the green LED being lit within the blue computer icon in the top left corner (this LED
alternates between green and red when the device is online). The other LEDs thus mean that the neoVI FIRE 2 is active and
transmitting on the HSCAN1, HSCAN2, MSCAN, HSCAN3 and HSCAN4 channels (in use these all flash a few times per
second.) Note that the LED for HSCAN4 is actually yellowish; it is flashing both a bright green and a dim red to indicate errors
while transmitting on the HSCAN4 channel.
“Blue Set” LED Status Indicators
Table 2 lists the blue labels on the FIRE 2 membrane interface, and describes the meaning of
the LED associated with each when the blue set is selected (top left keypad button flashing).
The LEDs are listed from top to bottom, left to right, as seen looking at the membrane in its
usual orientation.
