We've found with some of the mics the meaning of the light is unclear - 
does red mean on, or does red mean mute (like some conference phones).

Does hte button mute the mic locally? The gentner manual or website talk 
about a setup where the mute button actually toggles the mute on the 
gentner itself, and the led is attached to the gentner mute status. That 
way the gentner EC hardware can continue to listen to the mic and adapt to 
the local audio environment, so that there's not a hitch in cancellation 
when the mic is reenabled.
