Diagnostic Panel

The front panel health indicators only indicate the current hardware status. The Diagnostic Panel indicators identify components experiencing an error, event, or failure. All indicators are off unless one of the component fails.

Note When you remove the chassis cover to view the Diagnostic Panel, leave the IPS 4270-20 powered on. Powering off the IPS 4270-20 clears the Diagnostic Panel indicators.
