Power-Up Verification

Power-Up Verification

Introduction

The front panel lights on the different 6500PLUS cards help you isolate a problem.

 

These sections describe the light display when the enclosure is powered up.

Normal Sequence The following list describes what you see on the front panel if the power-up sequence is performed correctly.

POWER light comes on (processor and I/O cards).

WATCHDOG light flashes briefly.

TEST light flashes briefly.

STATUS light comes on.

PORT/DATA OUT lights come on and go off in sequence.

If:

-You have an NSO card, one or more of the MEM (memory) lights come on.

-There is a disk in the drive, the drive light comes on as data is loaded into the node.

This entire process may take a few minutes if an NSO card is loading data.

When the node passes the internal tests, the STATUS light (processor and I/O cards) comes on. This indicates that the node is ready to process calls. You may also see some of the port lights remain on depending on their configuration.
