Status Monitoring
LEDs
LEDs on modules in the frame and on the front of the GeckoFlex frames
indicate status of the frame and the installed power supplies, fans in the
front covers, and modules.
When a red FAULT LED is lit on a frame front cover, the fault will also be
reported on the 8900NET or Frame Monitor module. The LEDs on the front
of these modules can then be read to determine the following fault condi-
tions:
•
Power Supply 1 and 2 health
•
Fan rotation status
•
Frame over-temperature condition
•
Frame Bus fault (8900NET only)
•
Module health bus
In general, LED colors used on the frame and modules indicate:
•
Green = normal operation, (Pass) or signal present, module locked.
•
Red – On continuously = fault condition, flashing = configuration error.
•
Yellow – On continuously = active condition (configuration mode or
communication), flashing in sequence = module locator function.
Status LEDs for this module are described in
. LEDs for the 8900NET module are described in the 8900NET
Network Interface Instruction Manual.
Frame Alarm
A Frame Alarm connection is available on pins 8 and 9 of the RS-232 con-
nector on the rear of GeckoFlex frame (Frame Monitor or 8900NET
Network Interface module required). This will report any of the status
items enabled with the 8900NET or Frame Monitor module configuration
DIP switch. Connection and use of the Frame Alarm is covered in detail in
the 8900NET Network Interface Instruction Manual.
