Status LEDs

Three Status LEDs (see SecureSync front panel layout (SAASM version)), located on the unit's front panel, indicate SecureSync's current operating status:

  • POWER: Green, always on while power is supplied to the unit
  • SYNC: Tri-color LED indicates the time data accuracy
  • FAULT: Two-color, three-state LED, indicating if any alarms are present.

At power up, the unit automatically performs a brief LED test run during which all three LEDs are temporarily lit.
