What are the 4 lock lights on a keyboard?

These LEDs are on the Caps Lock, Compose, Scroll Lock, and Num Lock keys, as shown below.

Keyboard LEDs

Four LEDs on the Sun Type-5 keyboard are used to indicate the progress and results of POST diagnostics. These LEDs are on the Caps Lock, Compose, Scroll Lock, and Num Lock keys, as shown below.

Figure 12-5

To indicate the beginning of POST diagnostics, the four LEDs briefly light all at once. The monitor screen remains blank, and the Caps Lock LED blinks for the duration of the testing. If the system passes all POST diagnostic tests, all four LEDs light again and then go off. Once the system banner appears on the monitor screen, the keyboard LEDs assume their normal functions and should no longer be interpreted as diagnostic error indicators. If the system fails any test, one or more LEDs will light to form an error code that indicates the nature of the problem. The LED error code may be lit continuously, or for just a few seconds, so it is important to observe the LEDs closely while POST is running.

The following table provides error code definitions.

Table 12-5

The Caps Lock LED blinks on and off to indicate that the POST diagnostics are running. When it lights steadily, it indicates an error.
