Operational status monitoring
The status of the module can be monitored in two ways.
1.
GYDA system controller module.
2.
LED’s at the front of the sub-rack.
The LED’s are mounted on the module itself, whereas the GYDA-SC controller is a
separate flashlink module which presents the status of the flashlink modules in the
frame(s) as a web site.
The functions of the two monitoring systems are described below.
4.1
GYDA – Monitoring and control
From within GYDA it is possible to have alarms on loss of signal, loss of reclocker lock,
voltages, laser failure etc. As of firmware version 2.0.0 of D-422-MG it is also possible to
have alarms on each of the 16 GPI inputs, as well as the 16 GPI outputs. Only the GPI
inputs have alarms attached to them by default. Also, the same firmware version enables
control of the GPI outputs, so each output can follow remote input, drive active low or set
high impedance. All these functions are available from both web and SNMP. This means
that spare GPI inputs and outputs on D-422-MG can be used to extend GYDA with more
inputs and outputs.
4.2
Front Panel - Status Monitoring
The status of the module can be easily monitored visually by the LED’s at the front of the
module. The LED’s are visible through the front panel as shown in the figure below.

(Text not printed on the front panel).The D-422-MG has 3 LED’s. The colours of each of
the LED’s have different meanings as shown in the table below.
