3.1.4  NTP Locked Indicator 

 

A Network Time Protocol (NTP) server is provided for the dissemination of time to other 

devices on the network.  When this indicator is green the system has accurately set it’s time, the 
internal NTP Server is operating, and the ATS-6501 is capable of accurately synchronizing any of 
the nodes on your network that are pointing to this device as the NTP Server.  If the indicator is 
off, the NTP Server is not meeting specifications. 
 

Indicator Status 

Off 

NTP server is not providing time that meets specification.

3.1.5. Outputs Enabled Indicator 

This indicator provides the operator a visual indication regarding the output modules 

installed in the rear card slots on the unit.  No user set up is required and the system will 
automatically configure the internal monitoring based on the card installed in each slot.  To 
determine which module(s) is causing the alarm use the 

status health:output_modules

 command. 

 

Indicator Status 

Off 

Outputs not yet enabled 

Green 

Outputs are enabled and reporting their status is good.

3.1.6. Fans 

Each fan is monitored by the ATS-6501.  Any issues with the fans will be reported as an 

issue under the status for the fans.  Fan #1 is on the left and fan #2 is on the right.  To check the 
status of the fans use the following commands on the command port. 

 

ATS 6501>>status fan 
 
   [1] true  

 

 

 

true indicates the fan is working 

   [2] true  

 

 

 

false indicates the fan is off
