Front Panel LEDs
.
Note: The Air LED and the WIRE LED are bi-color LEDs: red and green. The displayed color depends on the
proportion of received data to transmitted data. The LEDs are mostly green when more data is
received than transmitted, and mostly red when more data is transmitted than received. When
approximately equal amounts of data are received and transmitted at the same time, the LEDs is
orange, which is the color that results from combining equal amounts of red and green.
