	DashBoard™	Status/Error Indicators and Displays

				Figure 3-14shows and describes the DashBoard™ status indicators and
				display. These indicator icons and displays show status and error conditions
				relating to the 9084 card itself and remote (network) communications.


		Indicator Icon or Display		Error Description

				Red indicator icon in Card Access/Navigation Tree pane shows card with Error
				condition (in this example, the Card Access/Navigation Tree pane shows a general
				error issued by the 9084 card in slot 7).
				Specific errors are displayed in the Card Info pane (in this example “No connection

				to device” indicating 9084 card is not connecting to frame/LAN).

If the 9084 card is not connecting to the frame or LAN, all controls are grayed-out (as shown in the example here).

Gray indicator icon in Card Access/Navigation Tree pane shows card(s) are not being seen by DashBoard™ due to lack of connection to frame LAN (in this example, both a 9084 card in slot 7 and the MFC-8310-N Network Controller Card for its frame in slot 0 are not being seen).

Yellow indicator icon in Card Access/Navigation Tree pane shows card with Alert condition (in this example, the Card Access/Navigation Tree pane shows a general alert issued by the MFC-8310-N Network Controller Card).

Clicking the card slot position in the Card Access/Navigation Tree (in this example Network Controller Card “Slot 0: MFC-8310-N”) opens the Card Info pane for the selected card. In this example, a “Fan Door Open” specific error is displayed.

Yellow indicator icon in 9084 Card Info pane shows error alert, along with cause for alert (in this example, the 9084 is receiving no video input, or a video input that is invalid for the card and/or its current settings).

Where available, error messages within a function submenu pane show highly specific information relating to detected errors (in this example, message shows an invalid or missing Framesync Enable reference selection).
