Diagnostic LEDs
Following is a description of the LEDs and what it means when they're lit:
Power
Lit when the system has power
Disk
Lit when the computer is accessing the disk drive
COM
Lit when there is communication activity on one of the serial ports,
including communication between the computer module and the touch
screen (if on COM2) or a serial mouse.
Input
Lit when the unit has a touch screen (LED gets brighter when a
touch input is detected) or a key is pressed
During power-up, firmware on the processor board checks the hardware
configuration against the configuration stored in the CMOS memory.
