BNC/4 Mb/s
The green BNC LED is on to indicate that you should connect to the BNC
connector. The BNC LED will flash when the instrument’s BNC connector is
terminated internally in 50 ohms.
The green 4 Mb/s LED is on when the instrument detects the ring speed as 4
Mbps or, if doing an NIC Autotest, when it detects the NIC speed as 4 Mbps.
HUB/MAU
The
HUB/MAU
LED is located near the
TO HUB/MAU
connectors. The
instrument turns on the green
HUB/MAU
LED to identify the correct port for
attaching a cable to run the selected test. The LED flashes green/blue on the
Fluke 686 and 683 instruments. The Fluke 680 labels this LED as
MAU
, the
Fluke 683 and 682 label this LED as
HUB
, and the Fluke 686 and 685 label
this LED as
HUB/MAU
.
For Fluke 686 and 683 instruments only, the
HUB/MAU
and
HUB
LEDs are
dual-color (green/blue) and have two functions: first, to identify the correct
port for attaching the cable to run the selected test and second, to identify the
Ethernet speed. When the LANMeter instrument’s Ethernet Speed is
configured for 100 Mbps, the LED is blue and when it is configured for 10
Mbps, the LED is green. When you configure the instrument’s Ethernet Speed
for Auto Detect, the LED flashes green/blue until a network connection is
made. The LED turns on solid blue when connected to a 100 Mbps network or
turns on solid green when connected to a 10 Mbps network.
NIC
The instrument turns on the green
NIC
(Network Interface Card) LED, located
near the
TO NIC
connectors, to identify the correct port for attaching a cable
to run the selected test. The LED flashes green/blue on the Fluke 686 and 683
instruments.
For Fluke 686 and 683 instruments only, the
NIC
LED is dual-color
(green/blue) and has two functions: first, to identify the correct port for
attaching the cable to run the selected test and second, to identify the Ethernet
speed. When the LANMeter instrument’s Ethernet Speed is configured for
100 Mbps, the LED is blue and when it is configured for 10 Mbps, the LED is
green. When you configure the instrument’s Ethernet Speed for Auto Detect,
