Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for controlling the operation of visual indicators, such as light emitting diodes (LEDs). A novel circuit may be employed to energize one indicator while de-energizing a second indicator, and vice versa. The novel circuit uses at least one switching component to perform a switching operation on the indicators.
