MRX-8489C STATUS INDICATORS
The MRX-8489C receiver provides the following front panel LED status indicators to aid in
installation and troubleshooting:
DATA
These indicators turn green when any data activity is present. An active DATA TX LED indicates
data is present at the input terminals to the MRX-8489C. An active DATA RX LED indicates
data is present at the output terminals of the MRX-8489C. When configured for contact closure,
the Tx and Rx LEDs will be off to indicate contact open and on to indicate contact closed. When
configured for RS-485, an active Hi-Z LED indicates the MRX-8489C has seized the data line to
allow data flow. The intensity of the indicators will vary with input data patterns, however, the Hi-
Z LED will typically appear dimmer than the data Tx and Rx LEDs. The data channels
associated with these front panel DATA LEDs are listed below.
