Service Interfaces

Service Console Interface

The SIO07 provides a USB-C service interface on the side, which is available when opening the left sidewall:

SIO07 Service Interface

It provides a serial console interface (115200 8N1) for service and configuration purposes.

Reset Button

The SIO07 provides a front-accessible reset button:

SIO07 Reset Button

Warning

In firmware version 1.0.1 and earlier, the reset button has no function.

A short activation (>1s, but <5s) of RESET_BUTTON restarts the device without changing current configuration.

A long activation (>10s) of RESET_BUTTON forces factory configuration of the device and restarts it. The STATUS LED will flash RED/YELLOW when factory state has been applied.

A “factory reset” sets the following parameters to default values:

  • Configuration data (Such as static IP address)

Firmware and hardware inventory data are kept intact.

Status LED

The SIO07 provides one multicolor status LED on the front:

The STATUS LED indicates the current status of the device:

  • OFF: Device is powered off or has not yet finished booting
  • RED: Device startup failed
  • GREEN: Device startup successful

Ethernet Status LED

The SIO07 provides one Ethernet LED on the front:

Bitbus LEDs

The SIO07 provides 4 LEDs for the Bitbus function. Currently, only two of them are used:

  • Leftmost LED: Indicates Bitbus I/O Board has been started successfully (green)
  • Second LED from left: Indicates Bitbus inactive (yellow) or active (blue) state
