Table 2-3: Watchdog and Thermal Status LEDs
LED COLOR FUNCTION AFTER BOOT-UP
WD LED green Watchdog status:
off = Watchdog inactive (default)
on = Watchdog active, waiting to be triggered
TH LED red Processor overtemperature:
on = processor temperature is above the safe operating area
blinking = processor has reached a junction temperature of approximately
125°C (Thermtrip)
green The processor is in a safe operating area.
Note ...
If the TH LED flashes red on and off at regular intervals, it indicates that the pro-
cessor junction temperature has reached a level beyond which permanent sili-
con damage may occur. Once activated, the Thermtrip event remains latched
until a cold restart of the CP3002 is undertaken (all power off and then on
again).
