Fan monitoring and replacement
Each optical backplane module has a fan which is monitored. If the fan fails, the LED in
front of the Sublime will indicate an error, see chapter 4.2.
It is also possible to use System Configurator to list all alarms. In “System Overview”, right-
click on the Sublime unit and select “Properties”, then choose the “Alarms” tab. If a fan error
alarm is active, the alarm description will include the number of all optical backplane
modules with a faulty fan. The number is counting from the bottom giving the lowest module
number 1, the next number 2 and so on.
The fan module is mounted to the optical backplane module with a single screw. When
replacing a faulty fan module, loosen the screw by hand or by using a flat screwdriver. New
fan modules can be ordered separately.
