System LED
There is one IBP Module system LED with dual functions, controlled by MMB for error status
reporting and blade identification. Different flashing frequencies are used to indicate the
different functions. There are two functions, identification and error reporting, with identification
having a higher priority than error reporting.
NOTE: If there is an error and the identification function is activated, the LED still functions as
an identification LED. The LED can only be disabled by the MMB with a 255 seconds timeout. If
an error is happening, the LED for error reporting will always be flashing and cannot be turn off.
The following table describes the system LED indications.
