LED FLASHING MODES

EL-USB-4 features a red and a green LED.

The LEDs on an EL-USB-4 will flash in one of the following ways, assuming alarm latching is turned off (exact
timings to be confirmed).

By default latching is disabled. The red LED will then no longer continue to flash after the logged curent has
returned to normal. Instead, the green LED will then flash.

Latching can be turned on via the control software, so the red LED will continue to flash, even after the logged
current has returned to normal. The red LED will effectively have latched into its alarm condition. This feature
ensures that the user is notified that an alarm level has been exceeded, without the need to download the data
from the logger.
