not flashing

As soon as possible, force a module power cycle as follows:

 

 

1)Wearing an antistatic strap, simultaneously press both red buttons on the front-

 

panel handles of the 6511RC to unlock the handles and prepare the module for

 

removal.

 

2)Simultaneously press both black handles outward and away from the center of

 

the module to unseat the 6511RC from the mid-plane connectors.

 

3) Wait 10 seconds.

 

4)Holding the module by the two black handles, very carefully push the module

 

gently and firmly into the chassis until it is reseated against the midplane.

 

5)Press the black handle so that they click and lock closed.

 

Once the Matrix Switch has resumed operation re-inspect the SYSTEM LED. If the

 

SYSTEM LED does not begin flashing after completing the power-up cycle, contact

 

Patton Technical Support to determine if the Matrix Switch should be replaced.

 

 

General fault analysis

The following procedures outline steps you should follow when troubleshooting a Model 6511RC malfunction.

1.If possible, talk to the person who reported the problem and obtain a detailed description of the symp- toms. Create a written trouble report listing all the symptoms observed, including a complete description of the status for each LED indicator.

2.LED Status Indications and Recommended actions, table 6 provides information on interpreting LED status indicators along with recommended actions in response to each LED status indication. To correct the problem with your Matrix Switch, compare each LED status in your trouble report with the information in the table, and follow the recommend action for each LED.

On solid Power is being applied. No action recommended.

Flashing The 6511RC has detected a power failure on a power bus. There may be a problem with the CPCI power supply system such as a failed power supply module in the chassis. The Model 6511RC will function normally with one power supply.

Inspect the power supplies in the CPCI chassis to identify and replace the failed power supply module. If the POWER LED continues flashing when all chassis power supplies are functional, contact Patton Technical Sup- port to determine if the Matrix Switch should be replaced.

Off No input power is being applied. Verify that at least one chassis power supply module is installed in the chassis and functioning normally.
