Pwr/TX - DC Power & TX LEDs
If all the LEDs are off, no DC power is reaching the radio modem or the internal fuse is open.
Successful power-up is indicated by the Pwr/Tx LED showing a continuous GREEN state.
Tx Indicator (Tx) : When the transmitter is active the Pwr/Tx LED is in a RED state.
The QR450 will take approximately 60 seconds to boot up - during this time, the DC power
LED will flash green/off periodically along with various LED activity. Wait until the DC power
LED is not longer periodically flashing and is in a solid green state before attempting to
communicate with the radio.

RxD & TxD Data Active
Sync/No RX - Synchronisation and No Received Signal LEDs
A flashing or solid green Sync/No RX LED indicates that the modem is receiving
decodable transmissions from another source.
A regular/solid flashing red Sync/No RX LED indicates that the modem is receiving
un-decodable transmissions from another source. This symptom can be caused by
insufficient RX signal, too much interference or an incorrect configuration parameter
set within the pair of modems.
TxD/RxD (COM 1 and COM 2) - Serial TxD/RxD LEDs
The RxD/TxD LEDs indicate data flow into/out of the serial user port. Data being
sent to the port for transmission is indicated by a red flash, and data being received
over the air and then forwarded to the serial port is shown as a green flash. As
the serial port is full duplex, there may be instances where the TxD and RxD LEDs
illuminate simultaneously, this will be indicated by an amber illumination of the port
LED.
Indicated State ETH port

ETH 1 & ETH 2 - Ethernet Link and Activity LEDs
The Ethernet port LEDs are found on the physical RJ45 sockets, located on the
front panel. Green LED activity typically represents a current physical connection to
another Ethernet device has been established. Amber LED activity indicates Ethernet
data is being transferred between the local Ethernet port and another Ethernet
device.
