6-1 LED Indicator Description
1 (1) Serial Port LED (P1)

The Ready LED (green) illuminates continuously while the unit is initializing. It flashes once per second
when the system is operating correctly. If the LED is not flashing, it indicates that something is wrong
(e.g., another device on the network at the same IP address).
