1. Visual Review – Performing a quick visual check may reveal many problems, such

as connectors not properly seated or loose cables. Check the card, the frame, and any
associated peripheral equipment for signs of trouble.

2. Power Check – Check the power indicator LED on the distribution frame front panel

for the presence of power. If the power LED is not illuminated, verify that the power
cable is connected to a power source and that power is available at the power main.
Confirm that the power supplies are fully seated in their slots. If the power LED is
still not illuminated, replace the power supply with one that is verified to work.

3. Input Signal Status – Verify that source equipment is operating correctly and that a

valid signal is being supplied.

4. Output Signal Path – Verify that destination equipment is operating correctly and

receiving a valid signal.

5. Unit Exchange – Exchanging a suspect unit with a unit that is known to be working

correctly is an efficient method for localizing problems to individual units.
