Heartbeat LED
The heartbeat LED provides information about product operation. If a product error occurs, the formatter
displays a message on the control-panel display. However, error situations can occur causing the formatter-
to-control panel communication to be interrupted.
NOTE: HP recommends fully troubleshooting the formatter and control panel before replacing either
assembly. Use the heartbeat LED to troubleshoot formatter and control panel errors to avoid unnecessarily
replacing these assemblies.
Formatter-to-control panel communication interruptions
●
The firmware does not fully initialize and configure the control panel interface.
●
The control panel is not functioning (either a failed assembly or power problem).
●
Interface cabling between the formatter and control panel is damaged or disconnected.
TIP: If the heartbeat LED is illuminated—by an error condition or normal operation—the formatter is fully
seated and the power is on. The pins for the LED circuit in the formatter connector are recessed so that this
LED will not illuminate unless the formatter is fully seated.
The heartbeat LED operates according to the product state. When the product is initializing, see Heartbeat
LED, product initialization. When the product is in Ready mode, see Heartbeat LED, product operational.
Heartbeat LED, product initialization
The following table describes the heartbeat LED operation while the product is executing the firmware boot
process.
NOTE: When the initialization process completes, the heartbeat LED should be illuminated solid green.
If after initialization, the heartbeat LED is not solid green, see Heartbeat LED, product operational.
