The RED led is the power LED, and should be illuminated when in use.
The status LED should be only illuminated for a short time during startup
The 4 green LEDS, showing 1, 2, 3 and 4, are indicators displaying which of the 4 card slots are in use.
At present, we have only implemented one card slot, so when the unit is in use, you should have card slot 1 illuminated, but all other card slots off.
I dont think that your issue is related to any of these lights.
Ill give you some suggestions from here on what might be wrong:
ACL is an IPV4 device, so ensure that you either have a fixed ip address in the range of - 169.254.XX.XX, so that you can connect to the ACL on its IP address range. If you have a auto IP address, ensure that you plug into the ACL directly, not through a hub. - A fixed IP address is the best method to ensure that you always get a connection.
Ensure that when you plug the ACL into the PC that the lights on the Ethernet port become active. If they dont, then you may have or need a crossover cable. If they come on, then the wiring is fine.
If this doesnt fix the problem, ensure that you turn off (or uninstall) any Anti Virus or firewall, as depending on their settings, they can block the Ethernet comms between the ACL and the PC. Sometimes an update to an anti-virus or firewall can turn off what was previously working.
See how that goes, and let us know if you are still having problems.
