LED Mirror on setup F/W set window (FW 2.2.2)

Postby I2NOY » Fri Feb 09, 2024 4:30 pm

Hi,
I noted that I have LED #2 lighted in red with 7000DLE mkII firmware 2.2.2.
With firmware 2.1.8 every LED is grey.
What "LED Mirror" does it mean?
Sameone can explain briefly or send a link where can I find an explanation?
73,

Maurizio I2NOY

Hi Maurizio,

There was some discussion of this back in April of 2022 with some speculation that it was for debugging purposes. See link below.

The LED Mirror is meant to be used for debugging purposes and represents
data that the firmware wants to show the user via the client app. I had enabled
LED1 and LED2 to show which Ethernet Phy chip was installed on the Orion
board. It can be either a KSZ9021 or KSZ9031.

If LED1 is lit then its a KSZ9021 else if LED2 is lit its a KSZ9031.

There is support for both in the firmware.
