Rack power and cooling LED indicators (Models 98x) (not 983)

This section contains rack power and cooling FRUs that have LED indicators. Each listed assembly is shown with a description of its LEDs. Although LED indicators might indicate a failure, do not use them as a starting point for a repair.

Notes:
  1. Error on local or partner DSU. Repair by using serviceable event.
  2. See MAP2341 Codes on the DC-UPS DSU status display for status code description. Repair by using serviceable event.
  3. This LED is for manufacturing only; it is not used for field service.

Notes:
  1. Each power output port is protected by a non-replaceable fuse. If only one output power LED is off, there is a problem with the power distribution unit.

LED on the local remote switch card

1 Line cord 1 Green 1 2 3
2 Line cord 2 Green 1 2 3
3 Identify or System Attention Amber Normal Attention4
(Rack-1 only)
Identify4
Notes:
  1. Off under any of the following conditions:
    • Customer power is not present
    • Standby power is present and the Remote Force Power Off is not active
    • The corresponding RPC or DC-UPS is fenced
    • The LED is broken
  2. On solid when DC-UPS DDM power is on.
  3. Flashes slow (1 flash per 2 seconds) when a DC-UPS is in Standby, a DC-UPS is not fenced, or the Remote Force Power Off switch is active. Flashes rapidly (2 flashes per second) during the DC-UPS power ON, power OFF, and Force Power OFF sequences.
  4. This LED is used for the following purposes:
    • For Rack-1 only:

      If the LED is lit solid, it indicates Attention status, which means that one or more open serviceable events that need repair exist.

      When all serviceable events are closed or canceled, the LED changes to off.

      When both attention and identify status exist on Rack 1, the identify indication is shown and the LED flashes.

    • For all racks:

      If the LED is flashing, it indicates Identify status, which means the service representative is replacing a part that was selected from a serviceable FRU list or from the Parts Exchange menu option.

      Note: Most, but not all, FRUs have identify indicators. The "light path" identify LEDs are a hierarchy of LEDs that can identify the rack, enclosure, FRU, and even the FRU connector for which a cable is connected.
