LED

Description

 

 

STATUS

Solid green: Power is being supplied to

 

the FIC-HNDE normally.

 

OFF: The card is not powered, the

 

power supply of the card has failed or

 

a serious hardware fault occurs.

ACTIVE

OFF after two-second flashing (yellow):

 

The card finishes initialization.

 

Blinking: The card operates normally

 

and data is being transmitted or

 

received.

 

OFF: The card is operating normally

 

but not sending or receiving data.

 

 

Troubleshooting You may learn how well the encryption card is operating by reading the LEDs on it. For the correct LED behaviors, refer to Table 143.

Table 144 Troubleshooting by reading the LED behaviors

Incorrect LED behaviors

Reason

Action to take

STATUS LED remains OFF at router startup.

The card or some hardware parts on the card are not supplied with power properly.

1)Check that the power supply of the router is correctly connected.

2)Check that the power is being supplied.

3)Contact your sales agent for help: the power supply of the card may have been damaged or anomalies have occurred to the CPLD.
