Front panel LEDs
The satellite modem has five LEDs on the front panel, as shown in Figure 22: Front panel LEDs on the HN9000 modem
on page 30. By their appearance—on, off, or blinking—the LEDs indicate the modem's operating status.
Table 6: Front panel LED indications on page 30 explains what the modem status is when the LEDs are on, off, or
blinking. On means the LED is continuously lit. Blinking means the LED is usually on, but intermittently turns off
briefly.
