TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

8

We have carefully tested and found no problems in the supplied MT108-103; however, we would like to offer suggestions for the following:

8.1 LED IS NOT LIT

Cause 1: Card cage is not plugged in.

Solution: Make sure the enclosure is powered and has AC power turned on. If the LED is still not on, see Cause 2.

Cause 2: Card is not plugged in all the way.

Solution: Push the card in all the way. If the LED is still not on, see Cause 3.

Cause 3: Card cage slot has a problem.

Solution 1: Test the card in other slots of the card cage. If the slot is damaged, the card may work in other slots. If other slots work, and the LED lights, the problem is the card cage slot. The card cage may require service. Call ALTINEX at (714) 990-2300. If the other slots do not work and the LED is still not on, see Solution 2.

Solution 2: Take any other known good card with an LED and verify that the slot used is good by seeing if the other card’s LED lights in that slot. If it lights, then the original card may be the source of the problem. Call ALTINEX at (714) 990-2300.

8.2 NO SOUND

Cause 1: The source has a problem.

Solution: Check the source and make sure that it is working at an appropriate volume level and all source connections are correct. If the source is working and there is still no sound, see Cause 2.
