Figure 3.2: AMX5110 User Station
The rear panel of the AMX5110 user station and the AMX5120 user station provides two LEDs,
one green and one yellow, mounted on each UTP port connector. The green LEDs indicate the
connection status of each port. The yellow LEDs indicate the activity status of each port. The rear

AMIQ module
The AMIQ (PS/2, Sun and USB) module features two green LEDs: Power and Link/ACT. These
indicators show that the attached computer is powered, and a valid UTP connection has been made
to an AMX switch. The Link/ACT LED blinks if a fault has been detected.
NOTE: The older AMIQ modules only have a single green LED for the link status.
AMIQ-SRL module
The AMIQ-SRL module features two green LEDs: Power and Link/ACT. When illuminated, Power
indicates that the module has power, and Link/ACT indicates that a valid UTP connection has been
made to an AMX switch. The Link/ACT LED blinks if a fault is detected. The serial interface will
not generate a serial break to the attached device in the event that the AMIQ-SRL loses power.
OSCAR Interface Overview
The AMX user station uses the Avocent patented OSCAR interface, featuring intuitive menus to
configure your system and select devices. The OSCAR graphical user interface is easily accessed
and always available at the desktop.
