Indicators on the Optional Bezel
The optional locking system bezel incorporates blue and amber system status indicators.
The blue indicator lights up when the system is operating correctly. The amber indicator lights up when the system needs attention due to a problem with
power supplies, fans, system temperature, or hard drives. The back-panel indicator connector allows an indicator to be attached that will also function the
same as the bezel indicator. See Figure2-3.
Table2-1 lists the system's indicator patterns. Different patterns are displayed as events occur in the system.

Messages."
Figure2-1 shows the front-panel indicators and features of the system. Table2-2 describes the front-panel features.
