IFS MCR205-1T/1S User Manual

Troubleshooting

This chapter contains information to help you solve problems. If the Media
Converter is not functioning properly, make sure the MCR205-1T/1S was set up
according to instructions in this manual.

The Link LED is not lit

Solution:

1. Check the cable connection and remove duplex mode of the MCR205-1T/1S.

2. Check the port configuration of the link partner; and make sure both devices
on each end are set with the same configurations.

Performance is bad

Solution:

Check the full duplex status of the devices. If one of the devices are set to full
duplex, and the other to half duplex, transmission performance will be affected
negatively.

10/100Base-T port link LED is lit, but the traffic is irregular

Solution:

Check that the attached device is not set to dedicate to full duplex. Some devices
use a physical switch to set the duplex mode, while some use software based
settings. A physically set full duplex setting may prevent Auto negotiation feature
to recognize it.

Why the device doesn’t connect to the network

Solution:

1. Check the LNK/ACT LED on the MCR205-1T/1S.
2. Try another port on the connected device.
3. Make sure the cable is installed properly.
4. Make sure one of the supported type of cables was used. Turn off the power.
After waiting briefly, turn on the power again.
