MN/CDM600.IOM

The behavior of the front panel LEDs is described below in Table 6-1.

LED

 

 

Color

 

 

Condition

 

 

Unit

 

 

Red

 

 

A Unit Fault exists (Example: PSU fault)

 

 

 

 

Orange

 

 

No Unit Faults, but a Traffic Fault exists

 

 

Status

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Green

 

 

No Unit Faults, or Traffic Faults

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Transmit

 

 

Green

 

 

No Tx Traffic Faults

 

 

Traffic

 

 

Off

 

A Tx Traffic fault exists OR the Tx Carrier is in OFF state

 

 

Receive

 

 

Green

 

 

No Rx Traffic Faults (demod and Viterbi decoder are locked, everything is OK)

 

 

Traffic

 

 

Off

 

An Rx Traffic fault exists (the demod may still be OK)

 

 

On line

 

 

Green

 

 

The Unit is On Line, and carrying traffic

 

 

 

 

Off

 

 

The Unit is Off Line (standby) - forced by externally connected 1:1 or 1:N

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

redundancy system

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Orange

 

 

There is a Stored Event in the log, which can be viewed from the front panel, or

 

 

Stored Event

 

 

 

 

retrieved via the remote control interface

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Off

 

There are no Stored Events

 

 

 

 

 

Orange

 

 

The Unit is in Remote Mode - local monitoring is possible, but no local control

 

 

Remote

 

 

Off

 

The Unit is in Local Mode - remote monitoring is possible, but no remote control

 

 

 

 

Flashing

 

 

ODU control has been enabled, and there is a communications fault, or there is a

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ODU status fault

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Orange

 

 

Framing on, EDMAC on, and unit defined as Slave - local monitoring is possible,

 

 

EDMAC Mode

 

 

 

 

but no local control

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Off

 

Either no EDMAC, EDMAC Master, or Transparent mode is selected

 

 

Test Mode

 

 

Orange

 

 

A Test Mode is selected (Example: IF Loopback)

 

 

 

 

Off

 

There is no Test Mode currently selected

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In general, the Alarm relay state will reflect the state of the Front Panel LEDs. For instance, if the Unit Status LED is red, the Unit Alarm relay will be active, etc. The one exception is the Transmit Traffic relay. This will only be activated if a Transmit

IMPORTANT Traffic Fault exists – it does not reflect the state of the TX carrier.
