Small Bright Red LED D5
Blinks at power-up and also communicates important information, usually by blinking a 2-number
code. Many of the codes can repeat forever. The (2, x) codes are from the bootloader, which always
runs at power-on and provides the opportunity to replace the main firmware (DIP Switch 8 on), even
if there is no firmware present and/or the CPLD is not in a good state:
(2, 4) = please insert CF card containing CFFA.BIN
(2, 5) = the CF card is not formatted as MBR + FAT16/FAT32
(2, 6) = could not find CFFA.bin
(2, 7) = firmware upgrade complete
(2, 8) = the CFFA.bin file is too large (>120K)
