2.6 Status LED
The Status LED is located on the front of the BreadCrumb ES1 enclosure.
The Status LED is used to indicate warning codes, error codes and the link state.
In BC|Commander, in the BreadCrumb configuration, the setting General: Status LED: LED Mode is used to
set the mode of operation for the Status LED to On, Off, Alerts Only or OFF (switchable).
When LED Mode is On, the Status LED will alternate between indicating the link state and any warnings or
errors.
When LED Mode is Off or Off (switchable), the Status LED will not indicate any warnings, errors or the
link state.
When LED Mode is Alerts Only, when there are warnings or errors to report, the Status LED will alternate
between indicating the warning or error code and indicating the link state. If there are no warnings or er-
rors, the LED will indicate nothing.

In firmware and BC|Commander version 11.21 or higher, if the BreadCrumb configuration setting General:
Status LED: LED Status Mode is set to Cost to Gateway, the connectivity-related behavior for the Status
LED will be as follows:
Solid Blue: No path to gateway, or there is no gateway configured
Solid Green: Low InstaMesh cost to gateway
Blinking Green: High InstaMesh cost to gateway
Prior to firmware and BC|Commander version 11.21, for the BreadCrumb configuration setting InstaMesh:
Advanced: selecting the Enable Live Trace to Gateway check box enabled this behavior for the Status
LED.
