Testing with Status LED
The LED provides a convenient means to test the AM43 in place. This is because the AM43 will always produce an output
whenever any of the five input channels (4 + talker) is stimulated. If valid data is detected, the LED will flash red, yellow, or
green as appropriate and data will be sent to the proper output.
If an input has invalid data, the error LED will light and an error sentence will be transmitted identifying the problem. If a
computer is connected to the AM43, the error message can be observed with a terminal program such as “Hyperterminal.”
These tests are simple, requiring no special equipment.
