Default Meaning of Choke Light?

When the dash choke light comes on in my 81, what is that telling me? I'm running a Holley carb with electric choke and occasionally, the choke light will come on briefly after starting. Just curious if that's telling me choke is on or choke not working? Thanks for the help!!

It means the choke is on. It's covered in your Owner's Manual.

Your carb has an electric choke on it.
