Line System | Agilent Technologies E4374A, E4370A, E4371A instruction

When lit, indicates an external fault such as: External digital fault signal received, Power fail shutdown signal received, High power bus voltage after power on, Low power bus voltage after power-on. Overtemperature

When lit, indicates an internal hardware fault such as: Selftest failure,

Calibration error, Hardware error.

Indicates the card is powered up and ready to be used

When lit, indicates an internal hardware fault such as: Selftest failure,

Calibration error, Hardware error.

SYSTEM

Power

Ready

Applies and removes ac power from the Agilent MCCD. Relays inside the unit that connect the power bus are disengaged when power is off, so the power bus is also disconnected from the unit by this switch.

When lit, indicates that the mainframe is powered on.

When lit, indicates that the unit is ready for operation.

When off, indicates that the external power bus voltage is either too high or too low.

Active

When lit, indicates that data communication is present on the LAN cable. When flashing, indicates that LAN communication is in progress.
