Selected answer:takes away / stops supplying the reset signal
Explanation:
Well, sort of --- it really means that while the reset signal / command is being supplied by / sent from the host, this unit's LEDs will stay unlit (i.e. any indication from them will be blanked, to avoid spurious false / invalid indications during the resetting period)

agree  Ken Cox: yep -- 'remove' is the opposite of 'apply' in the electronics sense, but it does not mean 'fails to apply' - just 'no longer applies'.
