3.1 Monitoring the SS8460
The SS8460 provides visual indications (LCD and LEDs) for operational status. An audible
alarm (piezoelectric buzzer) indicates a faulty condition such as the top cover is open or a
PCM has been removed.
3.1.1 LCD Module
The LCD module provides system status information (Figure 38). The display cycles through
the identification and status pages (Figure 39).
Identification information includes SFA OS subsystem name, enclosure’s index and position
within the SFA OS subsystem, enclosure firmware version number, WWN, and IP address of
the I/O modules’ Ethernet ports (DDN only uses the Ethernet ports for advanced diagnostics
and recommends that you do NOT connect these ports to a network).
On the status page, the reading of the I/O module temperature sensors are shown when the
status is good. If there are faults, the status page will display the element type and position
with the most critical fault followed by additional scrolling faults on the second line.
