Re: (ASCEND) CON light
That I realize. :) I have only seen the light come on when something was
wrong (aside from at bootup).
Let me give you an example:
(normal bootup)
CON light flashes 16 times
(1-2 second pause)
CON light flashes 16 times
(unit reboots)
The fact that it flashed a set number of times seems to indicate to me
that it is some sort of code, kind of like if your PC refuses to boot and
(sometimes) beeps 'x' number of times to tell you what happened if it
fails POST.
If the light doesn't mean anything in terms of the number of times it
flashes I wouldn't mind knowing that; however if it is some sort of code I
am pretty curious to know what the codes mean.
