Hi!

Yep, I guess staying with old "label" is the right solution for you
for now.

Therefore, a total abstraction of the set of LEDs as a single entity would be detrimental for us here.

I suspect it is "no signal" -> "all LEDs off". "weak signal" -> "one
LED on", "medium signal" -> "two LEDs on", "string signal" -> "three
LEDs on".
