FAULT ISOLATION and CORRECTION
If the Media Converter fails, isolate and correct the failure by determining the
answers to the following questions and then taking the indicated action:
1.
Is the P(o)w(e)r LED on the Media Converter illuminated?
NO
•
Is the power adapter the proper voltage and cycle frequency for the
AC outlet?
NOTE: Refer to the “Power Supply Requirements” on page 7.
•
Is the power adapter properly installed in the Media Converter and in
the grounded AC outlet?
•
Does the grounded AC outlet provide power?
•
Contact Technical Support at (800) 260-1312.
YES
•
Proceed to step 2.
2.
Is the RXF LED illuminated?
NO
•
Disconnect and reconnect the fiber cable to restart the initialization
process.
•
Contact Technical Support: (800) 260-1312.
YES
•
Proceed to step 3.
3.
Is the RXC LED illuminated?
NO
•
Disconnect and reconnect the copper cable to restart the
initialization process.
•
Restart the terminal device(s) to restart the initialization process.
•
Contact Technical Support: (800) 260-1312.
YES
•
Proceed to step 4.
4.
Does the data fail to move across the link, even though both
LEDs are illuminated?
YES
•
Check the RS-485/RS-422 cables for proper configuration and
connection.
