Controls and indicators
The LEDs on the DAC faceplate indicate the status mode for each port. 
Figure 88 on 
 shows the NT7D16 DAC faceplate. 
Card status
The LED at the top of the faceplate is unlabeled. This LED is:
off: if one or more ports are enabled
on: if all ports are disabled
Electronic Industries Association signal monitors
The six LEDs located below the card status LED are labeled SD, RD, DTR, 
DSR, DCD, and RI. They show the dynamic state of the associated Electronic 
Industries Association (EIA) control leads for a specific port (as shown by the 
display). When in RS-422 mode, only SD and RD are utilized. When in 
RS-232-C mode, the LED goes on to indicate that the signal is asserted on, or 
off to indicate that the signal is asserted off. When the LED is off, there is no 
active voltage on the signal lead.
CONNECT
This lamp lights to indicate that a data call is established for the port 
displayed. A data call is connected when the data module-to-data module 
protocol messages are successfully exchanged between the two ends.
