      Just purchased a XG7100 1U.
      What is the status light for? I never see it light up.

      I will be supporting it remotely and was hoping that you would be able to tell Status of appliance visually.

            I don't know exactly, if this works on SG-7100 as it is an SG-3100 related post and SG-3100 = ARM

            Steve can help @stephenw10

            The webcam is a good question anyway ... 😀

            Cats bury it so they can't see it!

                It's not the same as the 3100, no full rgb led controller here unfortunately. 😉

                It's more like the 5100, requires a driver. I thought we had one at one time, I'll have to dig into it.

                  webcam.... no.

                  If I can't connect to the 7100 I would be speaking with someone at location asking them to tell me what lights they see on the device.

                  It appears this new 7100 has a longer boot time than my 3100, so I'm concerned if I restart it remotely how to tell what state it is in.
