Frontplane Ribbon Connector Trouble (Release 1 Only)
The frontplane ribbon connector is a flat cable connecting the Call Processor and Memory CPs at their front edges.
To reattach or replace this cable, follow these steps:
1.Remove power from the system.
2.Pull the exposed tab on the cable from one of the CPs. This exposes a second tab at the other end of the cable.
3.Pull the second tab to remove the cable entirely.
4.Replace the cable in the reverse manner. (The cable is keyed for correct placement.)
Power Supply Trouble
If a major malfunction occurs, the system may activate the 109 Emergency Transfer Unit. With this condition, the system may be nonfunctional, even though the green LEDs on CPs in the other cabinets remain lighted. Failure of the power supply in a cabinet containing only port CPs (Cabinet 2 or 3) will shut down all devices connected to that cabinet but will not shut down the entire system.
Check the green LED on PS (visible through the fan slots on the front door). If extinguished, PS is shut down. Remove ac power from the cabinet for about 3 minutes. Turn on ac power. Green LED lighted, PS overheated (fan defective), or current overload. Check all boards in cabinet for problems.
