Power-Up Self-Test

After you connect the 3160/3164 DSU/CSU to a power outlet, the power-up self-test is performed to ensure that the unit is in good working order. The DSU/CSU performs this test on itself upon power-up or after a device reset unless it has been disabled by the Self-Test configuration option (see Appendix C, Configuration Options).

The 3161 DSU/CSU performs the same power-up self-test except that progress is not reported on the SDCP during the test. However, you can use the Self-Test Health command to display the status of the test (see Self-Test Health section in Chapter 3, Operation).

The self-test includes a basic CPU test, a limited RAM test, a code checksum test, and basic verification tests of its internal components. The front panel LCD displays the progress and pass/fail status of these power-up tests.

The power-up self-test consists of the following steps:

1.Once the DSU/CSU is plugged in, the In Progress screen appears and the Fail LED blinks ON and Off continuously.

Self-Test:

In Progress

2.All the LEDs then start to flash simultaneously in the pattern twice ON, then Off. Then, the LCD begins to flash characters and numbers in the same pattern, alternating with the flashing LEDs.

3.If the self-test is successful, the Passed screen appears for one second, the Fail LED is turned Off and the OK LED lights.

Self-Test:

Passed

F1 F2 F3

If the self-test fails, the Failed screen appears for five seconds. The Fail LED lights. The DSU/CSU continues to try to operate. If you are in doubt about the results of the self-test, use the Self-Test Health command to display the status of this test (see Self-Test Health section in Chapter 3, Operation).

Self-Test:
