The LEDs on the RN-134) are connected to GPIO 4, 5 and 6. To disable the LEDs, enable the alternative
functions of the LEDs (set sys iofunc 0x7).
NOTE: The Yellow, Red and Green LEDs can be turned off. The Blue LED on the RN-134 is the
power LED and cannot be turned OFF.
The Blue LED on the RN-174 is connected to GPIO7 which is output by default. This LED is not
driven by the RN-174 board as the default powerup state of GPIO7 is LOW.
The get sys command will show the setting of the GPIO mask.
