Table 6.2 NS1+NS2: Network Status (one per port)
Check: Link Status
The status of the Ethernet link cannot be directly identified
with the LEDs.
Use 12-10 Link Status, to verify presents of the link.
Use 12-11 Link Duration, to verify that the link is steady
present.
The parameter shows the duration of the present link, and
preset to 00:00:00:00 if the link is broken.
Check: Cabling
In rare cases of cabling mis-configuration, the option might
show the presents of a link, but no communication is
running. Exchange the cable in doubt.
Check: IP Address
Verify that the option has a valid IP address (refer to
3.1.1 IP Settings) in 12-01 IP Address. If the option has
identified a duplicate IP Address NS LEDs lights steady red.
If the option is set up for BOOTP or DHCP, verify that a
BOOTP or DHCP server is connected in 12-04 DHCP Server.
If no server is connected, the parameter shows:
000.000.000.000.
6.2 Alarm Word and Warning Word
Alarm word and warning word are shown in the display in
Hex format. If there is more than one warning or alarm, a
sum of all warnings or alarms is shown. Warning word and
alarm word are displayed in 16-90 Alarm Word to 16-95.
For more information on the individual alarms and
warnings, refer to the product relevant Design Guides.
