From uCtrl.net

Information
The Rack status panel shows signals from almost every module in the Rack box. Located on my desk it gives a good overview of the system. The panel also has switches and buttons that makes it possible to reset alarms, control lights, fan, mute etc. The panel has a total of 60 drilled holes for buttons and LEDs and 71 connection point, from three D-Sub contactors. The module DEIM is housed inside the status panel.
