S SC150e HARDWARE REFERENCE
3.3 LED Status Indicators
3.3.1 Insert LED
The green Insert LED is ON when the node is inserted into the S SC150e
Network ring. A node is inserted when it is electrically placed on the network for the
purpose of transmitting and receiving messages. This LED is labeled “I” on the faceplate.
3.3.2 Carrier Detect LED
The green Carrier Detect LED is ON when there is a valid pair of transmit lights from the
previous S SC150e node into this node’s receiver pair. Assuming at least one
node is inserted in the ring, the ring integrity is NOT valid if the fiber-optic cables are
connected and the Carrier Detect LED is OFF. This condition indicated improper fiber-
optic cabling or problems with the down-line transmitter(s). This LED is labeled “C” on
the faceplate.
NOTE
: On a system power-up, a message from any node on the ring may be necessary
to establish the carrier.
3.4 Software
Contact Curtiss-Wright Controls for availability of S SC150e diagnostic
source code and software libraries.
3.5 Utility Software
3.5.1 SCRAMNet Diagnostics
The SCRAMNet Network Hardware Diagnostics are designed to test the functionality of
the hardware. This suite of tests automatically detects the type of card and adjusts the test
menus accordingly.
3.5.2 EEPROM Initialization (EPI)
The EEPROM Initialization program is a S SC150e utility used to simplify
configuration of the network node. The EPI program stores a start-up configuration in the
serial EEPROM that can initialize the node on power up. This initialization program can
be run when the card is installed to set the desired power-up state of the S
SC150e node. EPI is completely menu driven and contains a context-sensitive help
feature.
3.5.3 SCRAMNet Monitor
The SCRAMNet Monitor allows viewing and editing of memory and CSR locations on
the SCRAMNet node. This utility is useful during software development to verify that the
correct values are being written to SCRAMNet memory and CSRs.
