Diagnostics and Troubleshooting

7.3 MLC Diagnostics

Each multi-line controller (MLC)

contains four red diagnostic

LEDs on the lower right side of

the controller, as shown in

Figure 23. When fiber is properly

connected, the LED labeled DS23

(left side) will be off and the

other LEDs will be on.

7.4 Temperature Sensor

Diagnostics

If the display includes a

temperature sensor, the

temperature sensor board will

provide diagnostic information.

The temperature sensor board,

shown in Figure 24, is located

inside the temperature sensor

housing which hangs near the

display. A flashing DS2 LED

indicates that the unit is sending temperature information. It also

indicates that the unit has power.

Refer to Appendix B for temperature sensor mounting and

connections.

7.5 Troubleshooting Display Problems

Some common symptoms that may be encountered in a display

and simple steps to resolve them follow. Solutions are organized

by priority, so try them in order.

Troubleshooting may require removing or replacing modules.

Refer to Section 6.2 for instructions on this procedure. Make sure

power and signal cables are reconnected correctly and latches are

tightly closed when replacing modules.

Make sure the first module is receiving power.
