Status Monitoring
LED Reporting
LEDs on the front of media modules, the Frame Monitor or 8900NET mod-
ules, and the front covers of the 8900TF/TFN and GeckoFlex FF/FFN
frames indicate status of the frame and the installed power supplies, fans
in the front covers, and module status. (The 8900TX-V/A and GeckoFlex
8900FX frames have no LED indicators on the front cover.)
• LED reporting from the modules in the frame to the 8900NET module
is configurable using the 8900NET LED Reporting web page.
• The Status LEDs for this module are described in Operation Indicator
LEDs on page 24 . LEDs for the 8900NET module are described in the
8900NET (Net Card) Network Interface Instruction Manual .
Web Browser Interface
The 8900NET module controls a web browser GUI that indicates frame and
module status on the following web pages:
• Frame Status web page – reports overall frame and module status in
colored graphical and text formats. Refer to
Figure 16 on page 37 for an
example.
• Module Status web page ( Figure 22 on page 44 ) – shows specific input
and reference signal configuration error status to the module along
with module status and information (part number, serial number, hard-
ware version, software/firmware/boot versions, and Asset number (as
assigned on the Slot Config web page).
• A Status LED icon on each web page reflects the module status on the
module Status web page where warnings and faults are displayed and
is a link to the module Status web page.
SNMP Reporting
The Gecko 8900 Series system uses the Simple Network Monitoring Pro-
tocol (SNMP) internet standard for reporting status information to remote
monitoring stations. When SNMP Agent software is installed on the
8900NET module, enabled status reports are sent to an SNMP Manager
such as the Grass Valley’s NetCentral application.
Status reporting for the frame is enabled or disabled with the configuration
DIP switches on the 8900NET module. Most module status reporting items
can be enabled or disabled on individual configuration web pages.
