Indicators

The Gold Solo Trombone is equipped with several light-emitting diode (LED) indicators.

4.3.3.1.

Drive Status Indicator

This red/green dual LED is used for immediate indication of the following states:

Initiation state: In this state the LED indicates whether the drive is in the boot state

(blinking red) or in the operational state (steady red).

Working state: In this state the LED indicates whether the drive is in an amplifier failure

state (red) or is ready to enable the motor (green).

4.3.3.2.

EtherCAT Link Indicators

The Gold Solo Trombone can serve as an EtherCAT slave device. For this purpose it has two RJ-
45 connectors, which are designated as EtherCAT In and EtherCAT Out. Each of these RJ-45
connectors has two status LEDs, which are shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2: Ethernet Connector LEDs

The green LED is the link/activity indicator. It shows the state of the applicable physical link and
the activity on that link.

The amber LED is the speed indicator. It shows the speed of the connection on the Ethernet
line.

The possible states of these LEDs are summarized in Table 12.

EtherCAT Status Indicator

The EtherCAT status indicator is a red/green dual LED. It combines run indication (when it is
green) and error indication (when it is red) of the EtherCAT device.
