TA-410/810 Front Panel LED Definitions
LED NAME DESCRIPTION
General Operation LEDs (one set on each TalkAnytime model)
Power Indicates presence of power.
Boot
After power up, the Boot LED will be on briefly while the TalkAnytime is booting. It lights
whenever the TalkAnytime is booting or downloading a setup configuration data set.
Ethernet
FDX. LED indicates whether Ethernet connection is half-duplex or full-duplex
(FDX) and, in half-duplex mode, indicates occurrence of data collisions. LED is on
constantly for full-duplex mode; LED is off constantly for half-duplex mode. When
operating in half-duplex mode, the LED will flash during data collisions.
LNK. Link/Activity LED. This LED is lit if Ethernet connection has been made. It
is off when the link is down (i.e., when no Ethernet connection exists). While link is
up, this LED will flash off to indicate data activity.
Channel-Operation LEDs (one set for each channel)
XMT
Transmit. This indicator blinks when voice packets are being transmitted to the
local area network.
RCV
Receive. This indicator blinks when voice packets are being received from the
local area network.
XSG
Transmit Signal. This indicator lights when the FXS-configured channel is off-
hook, the FXO-configured channel is receiving a ring from the Telco, or the M lead
is active on the E&M configured channel. That is, it lights when the TalkAnytime is
receiving a ring from the PBX.
RSG
Receive Signal. This indicator lights when the FXS-configured channel is ringing,
the FXO-configured channel has taken the line off-hook, or the E lead is active on
the E&M-configured channel.
Command Computer Requirements
The computer on which the TalkAnytime unit’s configuration program is installed must meet these
requirements:
• must be IBM-compatible PC with MS Windows operating system;
• must have an available COM port for connection to the TalkAnytime.
However, this PC does not need to be connected to the TalkAnytime permanently. It only needs to be
connected when local configuration and monitoring are done. Nearly all configuration and monitoring
functions can be done remotely via the IP network.
