Processor Fault Remind Circuit

The following illustrations shows the components and locations of the server module fault remind circuit. Use the fault remind circuit to identify a failed processor.

image:An illustration showing the locations and designations of the processor Fault LEDs, the Charge Status LED, and the Fault Remind button.

The following topics describe the components of the Fault Remind circuitry.

Fault Remind Button and Charge Status LED
image:An illustration showing the location of the Fault Remind button.

Note - Do not press the white Clear CMOS Button (SW1801).


The blue Fault Remind button (SW3001) is located on the motherboard next to the Charge Status LED (CR3002). The Charge Status LED indicates the usability of the processor test circuit. When the Fault Remind button is pressed, the Charge Status LED, lights green to indicate that there is sufficient voltage present in the fault remind circuit to activate the fault LEDs. Processor Fault LEDs identify a processor in a fault state.


Note - Press the fault remind circuitry within 15 minutes of removing the server from the chassis. If the green Charge Status LED fails to light when you press the Fault Remind button, it is likely that the fault remind circuit has lost its charge.

The Processor Fault LEDs are located on the server module motherboard next to each processor. The amber LEDs light up when the Fault Remind button is pressed and a processor fault condition exists.
