Locate Function
For larger systems which may have multiple cards of the same type in a single rack, or
multiple racks in a larger system we have added a useful utility which will help to
physically locate a suspect module in a rack quickly.
When Locate is selected the status indicator on the GUI and the alarm LED will flash
yellow in the following continuous sequence.
3 short flashes…. Pause…. 3 short flashes …
The LED continues to flash in this way until the function is turned off in the GUI.
Use of the locate function will not interfere with the normal operation of the module.

selected in the folder tree. This area has several tabs that will take you into different
