Description |
Subshelf Communication Failed |
Likely Cause |
The LAN3 connection, identified as DLAN on the back of a shelf, or the control communications link between the main shelf and each subshelf failed. To support more than one subshelf, the LAN3 port of the main shelf and of each subshelf must be connected to an Ethernet hub capable of supporting 100Mb operation. No special cable is required. |
Visible Indication |
Lighted CR, MJ, or MN LED on the SYSCTL faceplate (when the severity level is provisioned to Critical, Major, Minor, or Not Alarmed respectively). |
Action |
Proceed to Procedure 5-134: Clear "Subshelf Communication Failed” alarm. |
