LCD Panel Features

The system's LCD panel provides system information and status messages to

signify when the system is operating correctly or when the system needs

attention. See "LCD Status Messages" on page 23 for information on specific

status codes.

amber to indicate an error condition. When the system is in standby mode,

the LCD backlight is off and can be turned on by pressing the Select button
