Processor Card

Figure 1-3 shows the front panel display for the

processor card. From the front panel,

you can reset the card, test the lights, and monitor data transmissions by observing
the lights.

Physically, the processor cards are identical. The ID Module of each processor card
(located in socket U40) is unique and provides the functions specific to each type of
processor card.
