™ LEDs for Serial Ports ......................................................................... 46

LED indicators provide a means of monitoring the operation of the system and
individual ports. There are extremely useful for troubleshooting. The gateway
provides LEDs to help monitor each port. In addition, system configuration errors,
application errors, and fault indications are all indicated by LEDs, providing alerts
to possible problems.


6.1

Common gateway LEDs

LED State

Power is not connected to the power terminals or source is insufficient
to properly power the gateway (800mA at 24vdc minimum required)

application ports. Check configuration and troubleshoot for
communication errors.

Err

Solid Red

This error flag is cleared at the start of each command attempt
(master/client) or on each receipt of data (slave/adapter/server); so, if
this condition exists, it indicates a large number of errors are occurring
in the application (due to bad configuration) or on one or more ports
(network communication failures).
