In general, the Alarm relay state will reflect the state of the Front Panel LEDs. For
instance, if the Unit Status LED is red, the Unit Alarm relay will be active, etc. The
one exception is the Transmit Traffic relay. This will only be activated if a Transmit
Traffic Fault exists – it does not reflect the state of the Tx carrier.
IMPORTANT
The behavior of the eight front panel LEDs adjacent to the keypad
indicate the operational status of the CDM-700, and are described below
in Table 6-1.
