5.4.2 The DCU's Operating Modes

Operation of the DCU is simpler than it might appear from the variety of indicators and labels on the
DCU's face (see Figure 5.4.2a). Only some of them are involved at any given time, depending on the
DCU's current operating mode.
The DCU has two operating modes:
Status Mode
Diagnostic Mode
Two LEDs on the upper left of the DCU's face correspond to the two modes. One or the other will always
be lit to indicate the DCU's current mode.
In both Status and Diagnostic modes, double-digit numeric codes are displayed in the readout window
on the upper left. The meaning of any particular code depends on the DCU's current mode. The two
modes of operation and the associated codes are explained in the next two sections.
NOTE: If there is any discrepancy between the information here and labels on the DCU, ignore the DCU
labels and follow this information.
