SeaHub
4.5. Status & Mode Indicators
Operational status of the SeaHub unit is provided by an array of LED’s mounted on the front panel on the
unit. In addition to the main power/status indicator
This panel is divided into two sections…
c
Power/Status
Indicator [Red]
When the unit is powered up and functioning normally, this indicator will be
continuously lit.
d
Communication
status indicators
The top row of indicators shows the current operational status of the port
indicated by the column heading (A, B, C or D).
The indicator will appear RED if the SeaHub is receiving data, and GREEN
if it is transmitting. The indicator will alternate between these two colours if
both actions are happening simultaneously.
NB: In ArcNet mode, with no device connected, the unit will appear to be
continuously transmitting while attempting to build the “token-ring” network.
NB: Whilst running Seanet software, any enabled COM ports without
devices connected, will occasionally indicate a transmission pulse.
e
Hardware
communications
mode indicators
The indicators in the mode area will illuminate to show the currently
selected configuration mode of the port indicated by the column heading (A,
B, C or D).
NOTE
If working in reduced lighting conditions, the overall brightness of the status indicators may
be controlled through the “Seanet Setup” configuration interface for the SeaHub. Refer to
section 4.3 for further details.
NOTE
When the SeaHub module is powered up, or is rebooted by software (when applying new
settings), all the front-panel status indicators will flash (unless the ‘Panel Led’s On’ check-
box is “unticked”).
