9502-DCDA Card Edge Status/Error Indicators and Display
Figure 3-6 shows and describes the 9502-DCDA card edge status indicators
and display. These indicators and the display show status and error conditions
relating to the card itself and remote (network) communications (where
applicable). Because these indicators are part of the card itself and require no
external interface, the indicators are particularly useful in the event of
communications problems with external devices such as network remote
control devices.

LEDs
Four blue LEDs for each SDI input (A and B) indicate the input signal raster format being received and locked
onto by the 9502-DCDA (LOCK, 3G, HD, SD). Continuous cycling of the LEDs indicates the 9502-DCDA has
not locked onto a particular format (as in the case of no signal input).
-HD model only: a blinking 3G LED indicates that a -HD card model is receiving 3G which cannot be
processed by the card
