ETAP Study - A very basic question

I'm very new to ETAP and trying to read a Short circuit analysis of an SLD made in ETAP. I could not identify which loads are turned ON/OFF from this report. There are two colors at the terminals of the load ( Red & Black).

How to find which loads are turned ON/OFF? Is there any way to find if the breaker is ON/OFF?

Many thanks

There is a red and green button (check circuit continuity button) on one of the toolbar at the top. If you activate it, any part of the system that does not get power (circuit breaker open) turns grey. Please note that if that load or bus is fed via another breaker (say tie breaker which is closed), then this will not work.
Other option is to go to "Display Options" (little blue computer icon on the side toolbar and check the box "OPEN" next to the circuit breaker. By doing this, if the circuit breaker is OPEN, it will display OPEN next to it.
