The Paragon-X GUI shows a number of green/red indicators, which I believe are referred to as 'soft LEDs'. What do these actually mean in the Connected Slave and Connected Master panels?
Answer:
The meaning of the LEDs in these panels varies according to whether the test is running in multicast or unicast mode:
Multicast:
| Grey | P-X master was receiving Del_Req messages from the Slave but the P-X master is now inactive |
| Green | P-X master is receiving Del_Req messages from the Slave |
| Red | P-X master was receiving Del_Req messages from the Slave but is no longer receiving them |
Unicast Auto:
| Grey | P-X master had granted the Slave unicast messaging but the P-X master is now inactive |
| Green | P-X master has granted the Slave unicast messaging |
| Red | P-X master had granted the Slave unicast messaging but this has expired or the slave cancelled it |
Unicast Forced:
| Grey | Slave not enabled in configuration, or P-X master is inactive |
| Green | P-X master is sending Announce/Sync messages to the slave |
| Red | (Not used) |
