• Unit 6: LED 2 and 4 are lit.
• Unit 7: LED 3 and 4 are lit.
• Unit 8: LED 1, 3, and 4 are lit.
Unit LEDs in the 350 Family
The device has 4 LEDs marked as 1, 2, 3, 4 that are used to display the unit ID of
each unit (e.g. on Unit ID 1, LED 1 is ON and the other LEDs are OFF).
This section includes the following topics:
• Types of Stack Topology
• Topology Discovery
Types of Stack Topology
The units in a stack can be connected in one of the following types of topologies:
• Chain Topology—Each unit is connected to the neighboring unit, but there is
no cable connection between the first and last unit. See
Architecture (Chain Topology)"
• Ring Topology—Each unit is connected to the neighboring unit. The last unit
is connected to the first unit. The following shows a ring topology of an
eight-unit stack:
