each step is the approximate number of seconds from the beginning. The sequence is as follows:

iBox turn on momentarily.

indicating that the root task has
started. The Safety OK, Computer,
Safety A and Safety B LEDs turn on
as the safeties are checked.
3. :05 The message shown on the right appears on
the LCD.
4. :06 The Down LED turns on indicating that the
EEPROMS have been read.

application has loaded.
6. :10 The Relevel LED turns on indicating that the
application is running.
7. :20 All of the center column of LEDs turn off.
