Beacon mode
The HP StoreOnce Backup System supports a Beacon LED sequence, which helps a user identify
which unit is being configured, if several are connected to the network. AL HP D2D4000 Series
Backup System also have a Beacon LED on the individual disks so that you can identify a specific
disk within the HP D2D.
Use the Network page of the Web Management Interface to turn Beacon Mode on and off for the
HP StoreOnce Backup System. This turns the Beacon LED on the front and the rear of the HP D2D
solid blue. If you do not switch off Beacon Mode, it will continue for 5 minutes. See also Network
(Configuration) (page 33). You can also switch Beacon mode on and off by pressing the LED on
the front panel.
