LED
Description
Power
On when the MAX power is on.
Fault
On in one of two cases: A hardware self-test in progress or a hardware failure.
At system start-up, when the MAX performs its Power On Self Test (POST), the
LED is on. If any type of hardware failure occurs, the LED flashes. If the failure is
isolated to an expansion card, the MAX might continue to function without the
card.
Data
On when calls are active.
Alarm
On indicates a WAN alarm or a trunk out of service (for example, during line
loopback diagnostics.) WAN alarms include Loss of Sync, Red Alarm, Yellow
Alarm, and All Ones (or AIS).
