  • Page 15: Status Indicators And Displays

    STATUS INDICATORS AND DISPLAYS The 7707MTA-HD has 10 LED Status indicators and a 4 digit alphanumeric display on the front card edge to show operational status of the card at a glance. The card edge pushbutton is used to select various displays on the alphanumeric display.
  • Page 16 (with error detection enabled, see section 4.2.21) the LED will flash red. If no valid optical signal is detected on the fiber input of the 7707MTA-HD the LED will remain off. Note that while the optical input to the companion 7707MRA-HD is invalid (eg. not connected) then the optical output of the companion 7707MRA-HD will also be invalid.
