Understanding the
Controller Status Indicators
The MicroLogix 1400 provides three groups of status indicators:
• the status LEDs on the top of the controller,
• the status indicators on the LCD
• the I/O status indicators on the LCD.
Together they provide a mechanism to determine the current status of the
controller if a programming device is not present or available.
