keyboard, a mouse, etc.
Ethernet connectors: Connector number 2 must be used to
connect the instrument to your host computer using a crossover

Three LEDs are present on the interface front panel.
The LED named PG (Power Good) is green when the system
’s power is
functioning as expected. When off, the system is sleeping. When the color
of this LED turns to steady red or blinking continuously, it indicates a major
failure.
The GP LED is not dedicated to any particular hardware or firmware
function. Nevertheless, a red blinking GP LED indicates a major failure.
The LED named HD (Hard Drive) blinks each time an access is made to
the internal hard drive or more generally, when any access is made to the
SATA port.
