LEDs

This section describes the diagnostic LEDs found on the RS-232 interface.

Computer Operating Properly (COP) LEDs

The RS-232 interface provides

three diagnostic LEDs, located at D5, D4, and D1 on its PCB. Refer to Figure 2.3,
‘RS-232 Interface PCB” on page 18
, for their locations. At present, these LEDs
turn on to signal COP events for the interface's microprocessors. Issue a RST
(reset) command to turn off the diagnostic LEDs.

The green COP LED at circuit designation D5 indicates that the RS-232 interface
microprocessor successfully recovered from a timeout error due to a
communications bus error. The event is transparent to the RS-232 communications
line continues to function normally.

The red COP LED at D4 indicates that a transparent restart caused by noise in the
master processor circuitry has occurred.

The red COP LED at D1 indicates that a transparent restart caused by noise in the
slave processor circuitry has occurred.

WARNING

Exercise caution when using and servicing power supplies. High energy levels can

be stored at the output voltage terminals on all power supplies in normal operation.
In addition, potentially lethal voltages exist in the power circuit and the output

connector of power supplies which are rated at 40V and over. Filter capacitors store

potentially dangerous energy for some time after power is removed.
