Front Panel User Interface

The BMC provides control panel interface functionality including indicators

(fault, status, and ID LEDs) and buttons (power/ID).

Power Button

The power button turns the device on and off.

The power button has a deferred mechanism. When the DC is off the power button

ignores one (1) second or less activation to protect against accidental DC power on.

LEDs

The green LED provides an easy way to indicate that BMC is now enabled.

System Status LED

There is a dual-color LED to show the system status. The BMC turns the

LED off after all event logs are cleared.
