LED Indicators
The LEDs on the front panel of the AWK-3121 allow you to identity the status and wireless
settings quickly.
The LED for
FAULT
indicates the system failure and
user-configured events. If the AWK-3121
cannot retrieve the IP address from a DHCP server, the
FAULT
LED will blink at an interval of
one second.
The LEDs for
SIGNAL
are a signal strength indicator and they merely function in
Client
mode.
The following table is a summary for the wireless settings and LED displays. You can check the
status of the AWK-3121 by reading these LEDs. More information about “Basic Wireless

all light up
simultaneously and blink at one-second interval, it means the system failed to boot. This may be
due to improper operation or uncontrollable issues, such as an unexpected shutdown during
firmware update. To recover the firmware, refer to “Firmware Recovery” in Chapter 6.
