4.2. Checking Cables and Connections
1. Be sure to power off the device(s) to which the connector is connected before removing it.
2. Visually study the end of both connectors on the cable. Ensure that pins are not broken, bent
or pushed in.
3. If a connector is damaged, replace connector and power on the device(s).
4. Ensure that the connector is securely fastened to the device(s). A loose connection can
cause termination problems.
5. Ensure the cable length does not exceed HP’s recommended length (see section 4.1.1 or 4.1.3)
6. If problem still exist, power off the device(s) and replace the cable.
4.3. Power LED Not Lit
This indicates that there is no power to the SCSI-FC Router.
1. Ensure an AC plug is connected to a working wall outlet and the other end is connected to
the SCSI-FC Router unit.
2. Ensure the power switch is in the on position (1 represents on and 0 represents off).
•
See Figure 3-2. Rear of SCSI-FC Router for power switch location.
3. If LED is still not lit then turn off unit and replace the power cable.
4. If LED is still not lit then recycle the SCSI-FC Router’s power.
5. If LED is still not lit then replace the SCSI-FC Router unit.
•
Go to section 4.4 Replace a SCSI-FC Router.
6. After replacing the unit and the problems persist, contact your SCSI-FC Router vendor.
4.4. Replace a SCSI-FC Router
1. Power off the SCSI-FC Router being replaced and the SCSI-FC Router that will replace it.
2. Set switch one and two (SW1 and SW2) on the new SCSI-FC Router to match the switch settings
on the (old) SCSI-FC Router that is being replaced.
3. Swap each of the old connections from the replacement (old) SCSI-FC Router to the new SCSI-
FC Router. Ensure that all cables and connector are securely fastened.
4. Power on the new SCSI-FC Router.
5. After the LEDs have finished blinking, the power LED (green) and status LED (green) should be solid
on and the fault LED (yellow) should be off.
•
To locate the LED's location, see Figure 3-1. LED Location for Front Panel.
6. Replacement of the SCSI-FC Router is complete.
7. After replacing the unit and the problems persist, contact your SCSI-FC Router vendor.
