  • The status LED can be configured to be unlit during normal operation. To configure, go to Setup > System Options > Ports & Devices > LED. See the online help for more information.
  • The status LED can be configured to flash while an event is active.
  • The status LED can be configured to flash for identifying the unit. Go to Setup > System Options > Maintenance.
