FRancis,

I don\'t give you agrees but why should I compensate incorrect answers? Dans la foulée, you get some right but very often your English is incorrect. I am sorry. It is the truth. No hard feelings.

"Apparatus OK" indicator (light)


Explanation:
I'd use quotes to indicate the sort of text you might find on the tag beneath the light.

"Unit OK", "Device OK", etc.
