Chapter 3 Installing the IGX
Initial Startup of the IGX
Step 15 Observe that, after you turn on the IGX node, the cards run diagnostic self-test:
• The standby NPM red FAIL light flashes until self-testing and configuration updates are completed.
The other NPM immediately becomes active but also performs self-testing and configuration
updating. The process can take several minutes.
• The remaining cards show “FAIL” for a few seconds then become active or standby.
• The AC and DC Okay LEDs immediately come on.
• Alarms might be indicated. Alarms might be present on trunks that have not been physically
connected. The alarms disappears when those trunks are downed.
Step 16 If an alarm exists for a T1 or an E1 line that is physically connected to the IGX node, try reconnecting
the line to make sure that there is a good physical connection. If the alarm condition continues, a valid
T1 or E1 problem might exist.
NPM Startup Diagnostic Test
The IGX software contains a group of diagnostic tests that run on the system’s hardware at powerup.
The startup diagnostic either passes or fails the NPMs. The test result is displayed on the control terminal
screen as pass or fail. The pass screen looks like this:
**************************************************************************************
Release 7 Boot power up diagnostics starting.
68000 Internal Registers test passed.
68000 clock test passed.
Static RAM test passed.
TDM memory test passed.
Fast RAM test passed.
BRAM test passed.
Dynamic RAM test from Hex Address 400000 to Hex Address 9FFFFF
Release 7 Power up diagnostics complete.
**************************************************************************************
The fail screen looks like this:
**************************************************************************************
Release 7 Boot power up diagnostics starting.
68000 Internal Registers test passed.
68000 clock test passed.
Static RAM test passed.
TDM memory test passed.
Fast RAM test passed.
BRAM test failed.
Remove and reinsert this NPM to see if it fails again.
**************************************************************************************
If an NPM fails the power-up diagnostic, the boot process does not finish. If this failure occurs:
Step 1 Remove the failed NPM from its slot.
Step 2 Install the NPM in the same slot again.
