5.1 Visual diagnostics
LED indications (if present) can be very useful in case of problems with the instrument.
The green LED is normally used for instrument status indication, like normal operation or special function mode. The
red LED will burn continuously in case of a hardware failure. During normal operation, the red LED is switched on
during frame reception or sending on the Modbus interface.
