2.4
DeviceNet Indicator LED
The I-7242D includes three single-color LED displays to indicate the
status of module, network and I/O device. They are MS LED (it is red), NS LED
(it is green), and IO LED (it is red). The Indicators assist maintenance
personnel in quickly identifying a problem unit. The LED test is to be performed
at power–up. When the DeviceNet communication events occur, these
indicators will be triggered to glitter with different conditions.
2.4.1
MS LED
This LED provides device status and indicates whether or not the device
is operating properly. Table 2-6 shows the conditions of MS status. Therefore,
when the device is operated normally, the MS-LED must be turned off.

2.4.2
NS LED
This LED indicates the status of the communication link for the device.
Table 2-7 shows the conditions of NS status. Therefore, when the device is
correctly communicating in the network, the NS-LED is normally turned on.
