Meaning of tri-color LED states on USB-232 device

[DavidBoyd]

This question is more out of curiousity, rather than a problem.  I've noticed that the more recently-purchased USB-232/4 devices we've received now seem to have front panel status LEDs that show *3* states (4 if you count "LED off"!) - yellow, green, and now red.

I haven't found anything in the online docs to describe something as mundane as what the LEDs mean.  I always assumed that yellow and green were the mark/space indicators.  Sometimes now they light up red briefly, but I haven't found it to correlate to any fault conditions.

What's up with that?

Hi David,

I found the following screen shot in the NI-Serial help.

I hope that answers your question!

Thanks

Scott,

Thanks so much!  In truth, I'd keyword-searched the online support resources and come up empty, but never looked through all the help files on my own hard drive.
