Board Access LEDs

The board access LEDs—ACCESS and DRIVE—indicate when board

registers or shared memory.

The DRIVE LED light indicates that an access to the internal hard disk
drive is occurring.

Ethernet LEDs

The Ethernet LEDs (RX, TX, LINK, and DSEL) indicate the status of
the Ethernet interface on the VXIpc 800 Series.

RX LED

The RX LED lights when the Ethernet interface is receiving a packet.

TX LED
