4 OPERATIONAL 

CONSIDERATIONS

The electronic sensor device LED may be falsely activated by external EMI emitted by power
drills, wire wrap guns, or other AC powered devices located within 12 inches of the inductive
pick-up coil. If such a condition occurs, the electronic sensor device automatically resets after
the change in current state and returns to a constant dc state.

5 TROUBLESHOOTING

The LED on the bay tracer electronic sensor device is designed to light whenever an individual
jack LED is activated on a DSX bay configured with the device. 

Table 2

 provides a description

of common error conditions that may occur due to improper installation.
