During normal operation LEDs D7, D8 and D3 should be on and solid green at all times. If any of these LEDs are off it means that there is a
power problem with the unit.
LED D5 will turn on (Amber) when PCIe reset is asserted and turn off when the reset is de-asserted.
If any of the Interface cables are not connected correctly, the LED D5 will stay ON (Amber). Once the cables are connected correctly and the
