Design Manual

2 e CobraNet status indicators provide information about the Mongoose’s CobraNet connection.

ere are two sets of indicators for each CobraNet network – Primary and Secondary. Of course,

the secondary network indicators function only if you have implemented a secondary (or backup)

CobraNet network.

� In Use/Conductor LED (yellow) – indicates that the CobraNet port is in use, in other words Co-

braNet packets are being sent or received by the Mongoose. If the Mongoose has auto-negotiated

to be the CobraNet Conductor, this LED ﬂashes (indicating it is both in use and is the Conduc-

tor). If you have connected both the primary and secondary CobraNet ports, only one of your

CobraNet networks will be active (or in use) at any given time, therefore, only one In Use/Con-

ductor indicator will be active.

� Link/Activity LED (green) – indicates the CobraNet network is connected, and ﬂashes if there

is activity on the network. If the Mongoose is connected to another CobraNet device or network

switch but the Link LED is oﬀ, this indicates a problem with the connection. If you have connect-

ed both the primary and secondary CobraNet ports, the Link LED for both ports should be on.

3 e Ethernet status indicators provide information about the Mongoose’s Ethernet connection.

� Comm LED (yellow) – ﬂashes when the Mongoose is sending or receiving network packets to or

from the Mongoose Tracker software.

� Link LED (green) – indicates if the Ethernet network is connected. If the Mongoose is connected

to an Ethernet network but the Link LED is oﬀ, this indicates a problem with the connection.

Note: If an installation does not include an Ethernet network, this indicator is relevant only when

you connect a computer directly to the Mongoose. If the connection is working properly, the

Link LED lights up.

4 e remaining indicators on the front panel are the Locate and Power LEDs:

� Locate LED – ﬂashes green when you place this device in Locate Mode (via the Mongoose

Tracker software). e purpose of this locate functionality is for veriﬁcation, when working in

the software, of the physical device you are conﬁguring or viewing. is is helpful when you are

working with multiple Mongoose devices. For more information about this functionality, see the

software help system.

� Power LED – indicates the Mongoose is powered on.
