Active Status Light (ASL)
(Spinner® Chrono

™ Power models only)
About
The Active Status Light (ASL
2
) is a service and maintenance status light located on the
back of the Spinner® Chrono™ console. The ASL provides a visual indication of the
machine operational status. The current implementation supports four states: 1) solid blue -
indicates normal operation, 2) pulsing blue - indicates preventative maintenance is required;
3) solid yellow - indicates an error has occurred but the machine is useable; and 4) pulsing
yellow - indicates a loss of major function was detected.

ASL Overview
l
An externally visible indicator of the current machine operational status. There are
four supported states: 1) solid blue - indicates normal operation, 2) pulsing blue - indic-
ates preventative maintenance is required; 3) solid yellow - indicates an error has
occurred but the machine is useable; and 4) pulsing yellow - indicates a loss of major
function was detected.
l
Because only one status color and state can be shown at a time, the condition states
are prioritized as follows from lowest to highest: Blue Solid (lowest), Blue Pulsing, Yel-
low Solid, Yellow Pulsing (highest). Higher priority states are always shown before a
lower priority state, until cleared.
l
Only direct error code and maintenance counter data is used to determine the current
machine ASL state. No special algorithms (e.g., user behavior) are utilized to determ-
ine the status.
l
The console lower control board (UPCA
3
) determines the ASL state using inputs from
the error log and maintenance counter. During active operation (workout in progress)
or during the pause state, the console transmits the ASL state to the lower control
board (LPCA
4
).
l
Error code operation: A logged system error code will cause the ASL to begin pulsing
yellow. If the error self-corrects, the ASL will change from pulsing to solid yellow.
Depending on the error code type, after the end of a workout, the solid yellow light will

face.
