Chapter 2 Installing the 9C306 System Monitor The 9C306 System Monitor is installed in the slot marked SM at the right front side of the SmartSwitch 9000-6 Slot chassis, as shown in Figure 2-1. Install a System Monitor by following the steps below: ! CAUTION Before handling the System Monitor Module or any SmartSwitch 9000 Interface Modules, attach the ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) Wrist Strap. Then observe all static safety precautions to prevent damage from ESD when handling the modules. 1.
Installing the 9C306 System Monitor If the SmartSwitch 9000-6 Slot chassis has not been powered up, make sure that all modules have been properly installed; then power up the SmartSwitch 9000-6 Slot chassis by following the steps in the SmartSwitch 9000-6 Slot 9C106 Chassis Setup and Installation Guide.
Chapter 3 9C306 System Monitor Operation The 9C306 System Monitor, monitors several chassis environmental parameters, provides multiple out-of-band management interfaces, as well as veriÞcation of system cooling. The System Monitor also includes LANVIEW LED for at-a-glance diagnostics.
9C306 System Monitor Operation System Voltages The 9C306 System Monitor monitors speciÞc system power parameters to ensure that they are within acceptable limits. The power parameters monitored from the backplane are the 48-volt DC System Power Bus and the INB Termination Power Bus. The power parameter monitored within the System Monitor is the 12-volt internal line. The results of the monitoring are available to the network manager via remote management.
9C306 System Monitor Operation The STATUS LED indicates the current status of the System Monitor processor and peripherals. The possible states and descriptions of the STATUS LED are listed in Table 3-3. Table 3-3. STATUS LED LED Color State Description Green Functional Fully operational. Yellow/Green Booting Flashes green and yellow while booting. Yellow Testing Testing system. Yellow (Flashing) Crippled Not fully operational. Red Reset Normal power-up reset.
9C306 System Monitor Operation COM1 and COM2 Ports The 9C306 System Monitor front panel has two RJ45 communication ports for RS232 serial communication to and from the SmartSwitch 9000-6 Slot. Figure 3-2 illustrates a single RJ45 communication port. COM2 can be conÞgured to run the Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP), Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), Local Management via a terminal or modem connection, or monitor an American Power Conversion Smart UPS.

Appendix A EPIM Specifications Introduction The 9C306 System Monitor provides a port for Cabletron Systems EPIMs. EPIMs allow connection to the main network using different media types. Cabletron Systems offers a variety of EPIMs. SpeciÞcations for these EPIMs are detailed in the following sections. NOTE Verify that the EPIM is the proper revision number before installing. Refer to Chapter 3, The Ethernet Port Interface Module (EPIM) section for detailed information on version numbers.

EPIM-T Crossover Switch EPIM-F2 The EPIM-F2 supports Multimode Fiber Optic cabling. Each EPIM has an internal Cabletron Systems FOT-F Fiber Optic Transceiver. The EPIM-F1 is equipped with SMA Connectors and the EPIM-F2 is equipped with ST Connectors. Figure A-2 shows both EPIMs. SpeciÞcations for the EPIMs are listed in Table A-1.

EPIM Specifications EPIM-F3 The EPIM-F3 supports Single Mode Fiber Optic cabling. It has an internal Cabletron Systems FOT-F Fiber Optic Transceiver and is equipped with ST Connectors. Figure A-3 shows the EPIM-F3. SpeciÞcations for the EPIM-F3 are listed in Figure A-4 and Table A-3. RX TX LNK EPIM-F3 Figure A-3. EPIM-F3 Maximum Sensitivity (-36.0) Receive Sensitivity Typical Sensitivity (-31.0) Minimum Sensitivity (-30.0) Minimum Receive Input (-9.72) Typical Receive Input (-7.
EPIM-F3 NOTE Transmitter Power decreases as temperatures rise and increases as temperatures fall. Use the Output Power Coefficient to calculate increased or decreased power output for your operating environment. For example, the typical power output at 25° C is -16.4 dBm. For a 4° C temperature increase, multiply the typical coefficient (-0.15 dBm) by four and add the result to typical output power (4 x -0.15 dBm + -16.4 = -17.0). Table A-3.
EPIM Specifications EPIM-A and EPIM-X (AUI Port) The EPIM-A is a DB15 female connector used to attach segments to an external transceiver. The EPIM-X is equipped with dual internal transceivers. It has a DB15 male connector used to attach segments to an AUI cable. Figure A-5 shows both modules. PWR SQE EPIM-X EPIM-A Figure A-5. The EPIM-A and EPIM-X Table A-4 lists the DB15 pinouts.
