Visual Review

Performing a quick visual check may reveal many problems, such

as connectors not properly seated or loose cables. Check the module, the frame, and
any associated peripheral equipment for signs of trouble.

2.

Power Check

Check the power indicator LED on the distribution frame front

panel for the presence of power. If the power LED is not illuminated, verify that the
power cable is connected to a power source and that power is available at the power
main. Confirm that the power supplies are fully seated in their slots. If the power
LED is still not illuminated, replace the power supply with one that is verified to
work.

valid signal is being supplied.

receiving a valid signal.

Module Exchange

be working correctly is an efficient method for localizing problems to individual
modules.
