Test Setup and Results
2.3.2 Quick Start Page
The LED brightness is adjustable and the channel status is easily read on the Quick Start page. There are
two kinds of LEDs on the EVM, monochrome LEDs and RGB LEDs. The LED groups can be controlled
individually or globally. For monochrome LEDs, if the Apply this brightness to all monochrome LEDs
option is selected, all monochrome LEDs are dimmed at the same brightness, if not, the LEDs are
controlled individually. For RGB LEDs, if the Apply this color to all color LEDs option is selected, all the
four RGB LEDs color are changed simultaneously with the same color, if not, each RGB LED is changed
individually.
At the right side of the GUI, the LED status is read out every 2 seconds. A Green color of the status
stands for no error, Red color status stands for fault status. By clicking the button next to APS OK, the
detailed LOD and LSD information will show up.
At the bottom right of the page, the configuration can be saved locally. On subsequent uses of the GUI,
the existing configuration data can be loaded directly. For detailed features configuration, can click the GO
