Lifestyle Acoustimass Module LED Status Indicator

Green LED	Orange LED	Description
Off	Off	No power
Off	Flashing	When power is first supplied before the system boots, the hardware will put the LEDs into this state
5 Hz Counterblink	5 Hz Counterblink	Immediately after startup - if the LEDs remain in this mode, there is a problem with the Power On Self Test (POST): either the FLASH did not checksum or the SDRAM memory test failed
Once every 5 seconds	Off	Board is powered, initialized, Audio Input Cable disconnected
2 Hz	Off	Board is powered, initialized, media center turned off
Rapid Blinking	Off	Board is powered, initialized, has been turned on by the media center and S/PDIF is present
1 Hz Counterblink	1 Hz Counterblink	Board is powered, initialized, has been turned on by the media center (or in ASCII TAP mode), S/PDIF not present
Flashing randomly	Off	The green LED will flash whenever a byte is received from the media center. This flashing will modulate the current state of the green LED, i.e. the normal 1 Hz rate may be “chopped” by incoming data
5 Hz Counterblink	5 Hz Counterblink	If the board passed the POST and generally seemed to be OK, this state indicates that a catastrophic software error has occurred
Off	Solid	Indicates major hardware or software problems

Note: If the bass module dip switches are not set properly, alternate blink patterns can occur
