Functions of the Network Controller Card
The MFC-8322-N network controller card performs the following functions:
• Monitors frame power usage and sets the fan speed accordingly (higher power consumption
requires higher fan speed for adequate cooling). The fans always run at maximum speed for 5
seconds after the fan door is closed, then adjust to the appropriate level based on power
consumption.
• Monitors the frame door and power supply(s) to ensure that fans in all units are operating
correctly.
• Monitors the fan door and notifies the user if it is left open too long.
• Monitors the status of other cards in the frame via the internal bus.
• Generates alarms if any of the monitored functions develop errors.
• Provides an Ethernet connection to allow remote monitoring and control of the frame.
