3)
Return the card(s) to their proper chassis slot and secure.
4)
Connect the Null modem cable to the chassis’ COM1 port and the PC’s (that has the
3500 Series software installed) serial port.
If any one of the following steps in this sequence cannot be verified and/or
performed correctly, you must complete a troubleshooting sequence to correct
the problem before proceeding to the next step.
5)
Re-verify the card LEDs’ status and Active/Standby switch position as follows:
•
Single 3500 Series card installed:
a)
The Active/Standby switch is in the
Active
position.
b)
The
Run
(green) LED is illuminated.
c)
The
Active
(amber) LED is illuminated
•
Dual 3500 Series cards installed:
a)
Verify one card’s Active/Standby switch is in the
Active
position and the
other card’s switch is in the
Standby
position. (Note that with any other
switch configuration, the active card will be system-selected by which card
is in chassis’ A slot.)
b)
On the Active card, the
Run
(green) LED is illuminated and the
Active
(amber) LED is illuminated.
c)
On the Standby card, the
Run
(green) LED is illuminated and the
Active
(amber) LED is extinguished.
6)
Refer to the 3500 Series System Controller and System Software manual and perform
the following:
a)
Verify the 3500 Series controller is communicating (COM1) properly with the PC.
b)
Verify the system configuration matrix is loaded on the 3500 Series controller
card (firmware). If not, reload the system configuration in the controller
firmware.
c)
Verify the system confidence for the configuration matrix. That is, all system
components in the system configuration matrix have communication capabilities
(e.g., handshaking) with the 3500 Series System Controller.
d)
Perform a routine diagonal, active test sequence as outlined in the 3500 Series
System Controller and System Software manual’s diagnostic tool.
7)
System Control verification is complete.
