6-4CHAPTER 6: TROUBLESHOOTING

Troubleshooting ATM This section explains how to read the ATM OC-3 card LEDs and OC-3 Card LEDs determine appropriate corrective action

The LEDs on the base module and ATM OC-3 cards function independent of each other.

Table 6-3 identifies possible causes and corrective actions for each LED state.
