Front Panel Indicators
Front Panel LED
The LED on the front panel is normally red to indicate that power is present on the unit.
However, it also has a secondary role to indicate the status of the digital inputs
Fast flashing between red and amber – indicates a loss of digital input signal.
Slow flashing between red and amber - when not in master mode this indicates the absence
of a synchronising input.
