If your transmitter has a display, you can view the status LED with the transmitter
housing cover in place.
If your transmitter does not have a display, you must remove the transmitter housing
cover to view the status LED.
CAUTION!
If the transmitter is in a hazardous area, do not remove the housing cover while power is
supplied to the unit. Removing the housing cover while power is supplied to the unit could
cause an explosion. To view transmitter status in a hazardous environment, use a
communications method that does not require removing the transmitter housing cover.
