Æ Current Fault Status
The currently selected transceiver is the unit that will be polled for status
information in the
Current Fault Status XCVR#
selection box:
XCVR1
is the default selection and
XCVR2
is not selectable if CiLink is set to operate under
standalone (non-redundant) system parameters (see
Configuration
Æ
System Type
for detailed
information).
• XCVR Internal Voltages
– The transceiver unit monitors
the six internal DC voltages: 24, 20, 12, 10, +5 and –5 for
the currently selected transceiver. The monitor circuitry
will display a fault if any of these voltages are ±10% out
of range.
• Lock Detects
– The transceiver monitors the four phase
lock loops (PLLs) for each transceiver. A fault is
displayed for any and each PLL that is not locked.
• Currents (mA)
and
Temps
– The Fan and LNA are
monitored for excessive and low currents. A fault is
displayed if these currents are out of their prescribed
window.
If the temperature rises out of specification for the transceiver, a fault will appear in the
HeatSink
field.
As the heat sink temperature continues to rise, the transceiver will automatically disable
the FET amplifiers and display a
ShutDn
(shutdown) fault.
• Processor
– The
Chksum
(checksum), IIC Bus, and
Battery
are monitored for proper
operation and will display a faulted condition when the processor system is not
functioning properly.

the information parameters.
Otherwise, tap

from the
Current Fault Status
screen.
IMPORTANT
The information provided on the Current Fault Status screen furnishes
information on a status only basis. All information furnished on this screen is
refreshed each time the Current Fault Status screen is selected, if the currently
selected transceiver is changed, or if the
[Get Data]
icon is selected.
Each shaded status window on this screen displays the parameter’s active status as
operating either within operational limits [OK] or in faulted conditions [FT].
