3-2.4 MHUI Cable-Normaliztion-Attenuators Settings/Cable-Normalization-Mode Selection
Buttons
The MHUI cable normalization attenuator setting is performed either manually or by remote con-
trol or by an automatic control algorithm. This is indicated by one of three LEDs illuminated.
At the front of the MHUI a push-button switch is used to enable the manual setting of the cable
loss normalization attenuators, which are adjusted together with the same push-button switch as
used for manual cell size adjustment.
At the front of the MHUI a push-button switch is used, which enables the automatic control algo-
rithm for cable normalization. If the cable normalization attenuator is being controlled by remote
and if there is any manual adjustment via the front-panel or a manual switch to the automatic
control algorithm, then the mode will be manual or automatic control until a new RS485 command
is received.
If the mode is manual and if the front-panel push-button switch for automatic control is pressed,
the new mode will be automatic control. If the mode is automatic control and if the front-panel
push button for manual adjustment is pressed, the new mode will be manual.
3-2.5 MHUI Alarm Indicators
Front-panel LED’s at the MHUI front-panel will show the alarms of MHU and MHUI. All of these
alarms can be interrogated via RS-485. There are three types of alarms indicated by contact clo-
sures; Minor, Major, and Critical
The alarm types are identified by their associated LED color. They are:
• Minor Alarm (Yellow)
• Major Alarm ( Flashing Red)
• Critical Alarm (Solid Red)
The following table identifies the alarm number and its related function.
