Pilot LED Indicators

The Pilot LEDs are on the front panel of the Pilot. Use these diagnostic LEDs to determine if a component has failed in the Pilot.

The following figure shows the LEDs at the front of the Pilot:

White

  • OFF – Pilot is operating normally

  • FAST BLINK – To locate a particular system quickly and easily.

  • Pressing the Locate button toggles the LED fast blink on or off.

Service Action Required LED

Amber

  • OFF – Normal operation

  • STEADY ON – Fault present on the Pilot. This LED lights whenever a fault indicator lights for a Pilot replaceable component.

Note: When this indicator lights up, there is a system console message that includes a recommended service action.

Power or OK LED

Green

Indicates the operational state of the chassis. This indicator can be in the following states:
  • OFF – AC power is not present.
  • STEADY BLINK – Standby power is on, but the chassis power is off.
  • SLOW BLINK – Startup sequence has been initiated on the host. This pattern begins soon after you power on the Pilot. This status indicates either: (1) POST code checkpoint tests are running on the Pilot host system, or (2) the host is transitioning from the powered-on state to the standby state on shutdown.

  • STEADY ON – The Pilot is powered on, and all host POST code checkpoint tests are complete. The Pilot is in one of the following states:
    • 1) The Pilot host is booting the operating system (OS).

    • 2) The Pilot host is running the OS.

Service Processor LED

Green

  • OFF – Service processor (SP) is not running.

  • SLOW BLINK – SP is booting.

  • STEADY ON – SP is fully operational.

Top Fan, Processor, Memory Failure LED

 alternate image text 

Amber

Indicates that one or more of the internal fan modules, processors, or memory DIMMs have failed.
  • OFF – Indicates steady state; no service is required.

  • STEADY ON – Indicates service required; service the fan modules, processors, or memory DIMMs.

Rear Power Supply Failure LED

 alternate image text 

Amber

Indicates that one of the Pilot power supplies has failed.
  • OFF – Indicates steady state; no service is required.

  • STEADY ON – Indicates service required; service the power supply.

Over Temperature Warning LED

 alternate image text 

Amber

  • OFF – Normal operation; no service is required.

  • STEADY ON – The system is experiencing an over-temperature warning condition.

Note: This is a warning indication, not a fatal over temperature. Might result in the system overheating and shutting down unexpectedly.
