-  * Green led = all 4 fuses are okay +
-  * Red led = blown fuse+
  
 +There is an optional feature of an LED for each fuse to indicate if fuse is blown. 
 +
 +If you wish to use the fuse indication LEDs on the Lynx Distributor, it also requires a connection to a Lynx Shunt. The Lynx Shunt contains the necessary wide input (8 to 70VDC) power supply to output the required 5V (4,5V-5,5V) power requirement of the Lynx Distributor circuit board.
 +
 +RJ11 fly leads are used to connect the Lynx Shunt to the Distributor. This RJ11 cable is supplied with the Distributor in the box. There are two ports on the Lynx Shunt, and it is possible to use either.
 +
 +When all is OK, only the central led is green; when a fuse has blown (or is missing) the central and blow fuse circuit LEDs turn red. If you are not using all connection points in your DC distribution, it may be necessary to fit dummy fuses to extinguish the red LEDs.
 +
 +A future upgrade is planned to also send info back to the GX device over the VE-can, but is not yet implemented.
