Troubleshooting your CallPilot system

POST beep codes

If an error occurs before video initialization, the POST emits beep codes that indicate errors in hardware, software, or firmware.

A beep code is a series of separate tones, each equal in length.

ATTENTION

 

If your system emits POST beep codes, record the beep

 

 

code sequence and then call Nortel technical support before

 

attempting to correct the problem. Ensure you have the

 

required system information. Some POST beep codes are

 

fatal and can require that you replace the server.
