1.3 FRONT PANEL FEATURES
LED Indications
ALM (red)
Denotes an alert from the unit's internal self-check
feature. Internal unit monitoring of DC-DC converter
and unit temperature are performed.
BUSY (yellow)
Indicates current signaling status of the unit. LED on
denotes a busy (off-hook) state. Blinking LED indicates
either dial pulsing or ringing.
Bantam Jack
Allows test set access to the 2W VF signal and can be
configured for splitting or bridging.
Push-button (ACK)
The first use of the push-button is a LED and microprocessor test. If the 2W
FXS unit is operating normally, holding the front panel pushbutton down causes
all the LEDs to light. The main use for this test is to determine that the front
panel LEDs are functional and that the microprocessor firmware code is running
normally (microprocessor is not locked up).
Note
: The microprocessor test does not cause any disruption in traffic.
The second use of the push-button is to put the unit into a "sleep state". This
state is enabled when the 2W FXS unit is inserted in the shelf with the ACK
button pressed. In this condition, the micro ignores all settings until a local
VistaNET or JCI connection is established to the unit’s CI port. On establishing
this connection, the software will automatically clear the unit’s Channel setting
