Interpret Status Indicators
On PanelView terminals (except PanelView 300 Micro), use the
COMM and Fault Status indicators to isolate operating problems. The
illustration below shows the location of these indicators on some
terminals.
See Chapter 1 for status indicator locations on other terminals.
On PanelView 300 Micro terminals, view the Comm and Fault
indicators in the terminal configuration mode (Communication Setup
selected).
