Device Power On Status
A dash ( - ) indicates the device port has been disabled. If the port has been disabled, it is
probably due to a large number of errors occurring, indicating a bad coax or a bad coax circuit
in either the device or the LINCS node.
If a zero ( 0 ) appears as status, the device was powered on but it is now powered off. If the
device is powered on but a status of 0 is indicated, then the coax may be faulty or broken,
or the device may have been previously connected to another coax and a different cable
was connected without performing a POR to the display. If the latter is the case, POR the
display and it should reconnect.
A period ( . ) indicates that the device was not powered on since the last IML of LINCS. The
logic of the previous paragraph may be applied here.
A one ( 1 ) indicates the device is currently powered on.
Device Type
Often it is not known whether a display is a CUT or a DFT. This utility will give you the
proper indication of d for a CUT or display, i’ for DFT, or p for printer. Remember that a DFT
cannot access most LINCS local features such as Windowing, Multiple Protocols, and the
Calculator feature.
File Transfer
Remember that File Transfer mode and Windowing Profile mode are mutually exclusive.
This indicator checks to see if File Transfer is on for a particular device. The display itself
should have the symbol FX displayed in the status line if it is in File Transfer mode.
LU Indicators
This section of the panel indicates whether sessions have been configured for a particular
device. Legends at the bottom of the screen can be used to identify how each port is defined
and whether it is in session.
