Status Monitoring Summary
LED Reporting
LEDs on the front of media modules, the Frame Monitor or 8900NET mod-
ules, and the front covers of the 8900TF/TFN and GeckoFlex FF/FFN
frames indicate status of the frame and the installed power supplies, fans
in the front covers, and module status. (The 8900TX-V/A and GeckoFlex
8900FX frames have no LED indicators on the front cover.)
LED reporting from the modules in the frame to the 8900NET module is
configurable using the 8900NET LED Reporting web page. LEDs for the
8900NET module are described in the 8900NET (Net Card) Network Interface
Instruction Manual
The Status LEDs for this module are described in Operation Indicator LEDs
on page 41 .
Web Browser Interface
The 8900NET module required in the frame for the 8972PX module controls
a web browser GUI that indicates frame and module status on the fol-
lowing web pages:
• Frame Status web page – reports overall frame and module status in
colored graphical and text formats. Refer to
Figure 17 on page 45 for an
example.
• Module Status web page ( Figure 19 on page 51 ) – shows specific input
and reference signal configuration error status to the module along
with module status and information (part number, serial number, hard-
ware version, software/firmware/boot versions, and Asset number (as
assigned on the Slot Config web page).
• A Status LED icon on each web page reflects the module status on the
module Status web page where warnings and faults are displayed and
is a link to the module Status web page.
GPI Interface Status Reporting
On the 8972PX module, the GPI interface can also report the status of the
Primary, Secondary, and Alternate inputs. Refer to
GPI Relay Status Moni-
toring on page 39 for using this interface.
SNMP Reporting
The Gecko 8900 Series system uses the Simple Network Monitoring Pro-
tocol (SNMP) internet standard for reporting status information to remote
monitoring stations. When SNMP Agent software is installed on the
8900NET module, enabled status reports are sent to an SNMP Manager
such as the Grass Valley’s NetCentral application.
