Chapter 13. Identifying problems with hardware that is
configured for BIOS
This chapter contains the procedures for identifying hardware problems that
can occur to Network Station hardware that you have configured from the
BIOS setup utility. To learn more about selecting a setup utility for Network
Station hardware, refer to “Part 3. Configuring the Network Station” on
page 37. Continue with “Starting point for all problems” to identify Network
Station hardware problems.
Starting point for all problems
Network Station hardware reports hardware problems and configuration
errors when detected. Use the following procedures to isolate and identify any
problems with Network Station hardware that you are experiencing.
Note: For the Network Station hardware to function properly when connected
to a network server, ensure that you have performed the following
tasks:
v
Install and configure the appropriate server software on the network
server (go to
http://www.ibm.com/nc
for the latest installation
information).
v
Configure the Network Station hardware for the network server
software (see “Part 3. Configuring the Network Station” on page 37).
Record any displayed message numbers and message descriptions that pertain
to the problem. Make sure that this information is readily available to help
solve the problem.
Refer to “Hardware layout” on page 4 for diagrams of the Network Station
hardware when asked to verify connections. It is also helpful to exchange
questionable hardware with hardware that you know functions properly.

Does the Network Station system LED quickly flash from amber to
green when you power on the Network Station?
Note: Ensure that you flip the power supply switch, located at the back
of the Network Station, to the on position (1). If the system LED
flashes amber once but does not indicate green afterward, press
the white power switch on the front of the Network Station to
begin the startup sequence.
