The RLX2 radio front panel includes a set of LEDs that indicate the radio’s
status:
LED
Description
POWER
 While booting up
 When fully operational
This bi-color LED comes up amber when power is first applied. After power is
applied, this LED will go out completely for about four seconds while internal
hardware is initialized. After initialization, the power LED comes on green,
indicating the radio is fully operational.
RF TRANSMIT
 While transmitting data over the wireless interface
RF RECEIVE
 While receiving data over the wireless interface
SERIAL
 When a serial cable is attached
The serial LED remains off until a serial cable is plugged into the RS-232 port.
ETHERNET
 When Ethernet data is being transferred over the wireless interface
Note that the state of the front-panel ETHERNET LED may not necessarily
correspond to the state of the DATA LED on the Ethernet connector. The DATA
LED indicates any traffic over the wired link, while the ETHERNET LED indicates
network data that will be sent (or has been received from) the wireless link.
For example if the radio is pinged over the wired link, the DATA LED will blink
but the ETHERNET LED will not (because the ping packet was not transmitted
over the air)
