Blinking Backlight
When working in the menus, should the backlight begin blinking, it means
that there is an alarm message. You can exit to the top level (Banner
Message Display) and read the message or clear the blinking backlight at the
Clear Latched Alarms option (at the Systems Menu). Another way to clear
the display is through the Command Facility Main Menu by selecting the
Clear Alarm Displays option.
