LED system status indicator:
An LED system
status indicator on the controller indicates the
following:
following:
- Green flashing (system on and okay)
- Yellow flashing (performance downgraded;
- Yellow flashing (performance downgraded;
service recommended)
- Red flashing in a particular sequence (fault
detected, call for service)
The number of red flashes identifies a digit in a
two-digit alert code (for example, four flashes is
the number four). The start of an alert code is
indicated by a long LED interval. Then the first
digit of the code occurs, followed by a short
delay, followed by the second digit.
Alert codes are listed on page 13.
