Front panel LEDs
The satellite modem has five LEDs on the front panel, as shown in
on page 28. By their appearance—on, off, blinking, or flashing—the
LEDs indicate the modem’s operating status. All are blue when lit. The front panel LEDs are
all blue when lit.
Figure 24: Front panel LEDs on the HN9200 modem
Table 8: Front panel LED indications
on page 28 explains what the modem status is when the
LEDs are on, off, or blinking.

Blinking

is usually on, but intermittently turns off briefly.
