There are three LEDs on the front panel of the IP-IO module.
 
    | Function | Color | 
| Status (IP-IO module) | Green/Red | 
| Ethernet 1 | Green/Yellow | 
| Ethernet 2 | Green/Yellow | 
The IP-IO module Ethernet and Status indicators comprise two LEDs (green/yellow and green/red respectively) in one structure.
The LEDs indicate status of the IP-IO module and the ongoing communication.
The IP-IO module Status LED indicates the condition of the device.
| LED Patterns | Condition | 
| Green, constant | Normal operation, status OK IP-IO module firmware application running | 
| Green, flashing (~1 Hz) | Device restarting, wait IP-IO module firmware application running | 
| Red, constant | Detected error, attention required | 
| Red, flashing (~1 Hz) | Device operates, but a problem needs attention | 
| Red/green, flashing (~1 Hz) | IP-IO module I/O board receiving software upgrade, wait Do not interrupt power to the I/O module. For more information, see the following Important note. | 
| Amber, constant | IP-IO module firmware boot applet running | 
| Amber, flash | Device restarting, wait IP-IO module firmware boot applet started | 
| Amber/green, flashing (~1 Hz) | IP-IO module firmware is being upgraded. It is typically the firmware main application, but it can also be a boot applet. | 
Avoid power interruptions to the device during the brief period when the Status LED is flashing red and green. An interruption causes problems with the I/O processor upgrade and can result in corrupt firmware. You can view the evidence of a corrupt processor when the device reports itself as an “MP-C-15A.” A corrupt I/O processor can lead to the loss of the reset button and/or I/O functionality, as well as the inability to upgrade the I/O processor and/or the device.
The Ethernet (1 and 2) LEDs indicate the condition of the Ethernet communication.
| LED Patterns | Condition | 
| Green, flashing | 10 Mbit communication | 
| Yellow, flashing | 100 Mbit communication | 
| Green/yellow, constant | 10/100 Mbit link connected, no activity | 
| No light | No link, no activity |
