Web UI or the SmartZone Connectivity Software Module. If a change is made without a
request through the Web UI or SmartZone Connectivity Module (manually connecting or
disconnecting patch cords at either end of the cord), a Secure violation occurs.
NOTE: When the PViQ™ Connectivity System first powers up, existing patch cord
connections will all appear as Secure violations until these connections are discovered
and verified. This is normal.
Inserting a patch cord, or removing a patch cord, causes the LED above the port
associated with the violation to light solid red.
Figure 20: Secure Violation (unauthorized patch cord inserted into a port)
Removing one end of a patch cord will also cause the far-end port LED to light solid red,
indicating that it is also affected by the action. Restoring the connections to their original
state extinguishes the LEDs. If the cords are installed in the wrong positions, the ports
will remain in Secure Violation.
Trace Mode
Trace Mode is used for the direct mapping and verification of end-to-end patch field
connection points.
Identifying Trace Mode
In Trace Mode, the System Status Indicator LED (SYS) and Trace Indicator LED (TRC)
light solid green. All other indicator LEDs are off. The below figure shows the IU in
Trace Mode.
