can be wired to specific pins on a DE9 connector. Each LED indicates what specific router module
has failed. An “alarm” or ON condition occurs when the connection between an alarm pin and
Alarm_COM (common) opens. The alarm turns OFF when the connection between Alarm_COM
and the alarm pin closes again.
To create an indicator box, connect to the ‘ALARM’ connection using a DE9 female connector,
wiring as shown in Figure 3-18. Each pin monitors a specific function and activates a specific
alarm.

The following lists each DE9 pin and the associated alarm. The pin number listed corresponds to

Verification
When installation is complete, perform the following checks to make sure the router is operating
properly:
• On each PS6000 power supply module, check that all 5 green power LEDs on the front of each
module are lit. If any or all LEDs are off:
• Check that the power supply module is fully seated in its slot.
• Check the AC fuse on the power supply.
• Check for +48 volts at each of the 5 front test points.
