The Status LED on the MXU9020 rear panel shows alarm conditions as shown in the table:

4.1 Alarms

Step 1: Verifty the power supply

Check the status LED on the right hand side of the rear panel of the unit at both ends of the
link. If either is OFF, power is not present on that unit. Check the mains connection to the
unit. If the mains supply is satisfactory, we recommended that the unit be taken out of 
service and returned to a repair centre. Unqualified users should not open the MXU9020. 

Step 2: Verify the power supply the LAN links

Connect up to 4 LAN cables to the LAN ports. If the LED on the bottom left hand corner of
the RJ-45 socket goes green, or flashes green, then there is a LAN connection. If the LED 
remains dark, there is no LAN connection, and investigatory action should be taken on the
LAN and/or its cables.

Step 3: Establish and verify the WAN links

If there is LAN activity, then check for WAN activity by observing the green Tx and Rx LEDs on
the rear panel. If packets are being transmitted or received the LEDs will be ON. If they are
dark, there is no traffic being forwarded over the WAN link, or there is a problem with the
WAN link. This could be bits errors on the data lines, or no clocks present.

MXU9020 with BNC connectors - Step 3A

If the status LED is red, first check that the 

PORT SELECT

bit-switch on the base panel is set to

BNC. If it is set correctly, try swapping the E1 LINE BNC connections at that unit.

If the status LED remains red, try looping the BNC connections on the unit with a short piece
of cable. If the status LED goes steady green, the the external BNC cabling is faulty. Check for
cable continuity and network connections, etc... 

MXU9020 with RJ-45 connectors - Step 3B

If the status LED is red, first check that the 

PORT SELECT

bit-switch on the base panel is set to

BNC. If it is set correctly, check the connections on the RJ-45 cable. Check for cable continuity
and network connections.

The MXU9020 provides a TE presentation for direct connection to the network equipment. If
LOS is experienced, a cross-over cable may be required.
