LEDs on the FP-1000/1001
The green
POWER
LED is lit while the FP-1000/1001 is powered up. This
LED indicates that the power supply connected to the FP-1000/1001 is
acceptable, and that the FP-1000/1001 is supplying power to the I/O
modules.
The yellow
NETWORK
LED is lit during transmissions from the host
computer on the network. This LED indicates that the FP-1000/1001 is
receiving from the network, and that the communication wires to it are not
broken. The
NETWORK
LED gets brighter as activity on the network
increases.
The yellow
ACCESS
LED flashes when the FP-1000/1001 or any of the
I/O modules in its bank respond to the host computer. This LED indicates
that a module in the bank was addressed by a correctly formatted command,
and that the module is responding to that command (either with a success
or error response).
