FAULT ISOLATION and CORRECTION
If the media converter fails, isolate and correct the fault by determining the
answers to the following questions and then taking the indicated action:
1.
Is the P(ower) LED on the media converter illuminated?
NO
•
Is the power adapter the proper voltage and frequency for AC
outlet? NOTE: Refer to “Power Supply Requirements” on page 7.
•
Is the power adapter properly installed in the media converter and
in the outlet?
•
Contact Technical Support: (800) 260-1312/(800) LAN-WANS.
YES
•
Proceed to step 2.
2.
Is the green 10BASE-T
Link
LED illuminated?
NO
•
Check twisted pair cables for proper connection.
•
Contact Technical Support: (800) 260-1312/(800) LAN-WANS.
YES
•
Proceed to step 3.
3.
Is the green 10BASE-FL
Link
LED illuminated?
NO
•
Check fiber cables for proper connection.
•
Verify that TX and RX cables on media converter are connected to
RX and TX ports, respectively, on other device.
•
Contact Technical Support: (800) 260-1312/(800) LAN-WANS.
YES
•
Proceed to step 4.
4.
Is the amber 10BASE-T RX LED illuminated?
NO
•
Restart the workstation to restart the initialization process.
•
Contact Technical Support: (800) 260-1312/(800) LAN-WANS.
YES
•
Proceed to step 5.
5.
Is the amber 10BASE-FL RX LED illuminated?
NO
•
Restart the workstation to restart the initialization process.
•
Contact Technical Support: (800) 260-1312/(800) LAN-WANS.
