IMPORTANT
In general, the Alarm relay state will reflect the state of the Front Panel LEDs. For instance,
if the Unit Status LED is red, the Unit Alarm relay will be active, etc. The one exception is
the Transmit Traffic relay. This will only be activated if a Transmit Traffic Fault exists – it
does not reflect the state of the TX carrier.
