Hardware Overview

Your OGX-FR frame is a 2RU modular frame, designed to accommodate openGear cards. A complete list of 
available openGear cards is available on our website.

Front Panel Overview

This section briefly summarizes the features of the OGX-FR front panel.

Figure 3.1  OGX-FR — Front Panel

1. Diagnostic Panel

The Diagnostic Panel is located on the frame front panel and enables you to quickly monitor the frame. 
Information is presented in two separate lines of text:

› The top line in the display cycles through the name assigned to the frame in DashBoard and the current IP 

address of the frame (or 0.0.0.0 if none available). The IP address is configured on the MFC-OG3-N Network 
Controller Card. Refer to the user guide for your card to learn more about setting the IP address and frame 
name in DashBoard.

› The second line reports errors or alarm conditions from any source. This includes fan failure alarms, power 

supply warnings, or errors reported by the cards installed in the frame. The Diagnostic Panel organizes the 
messages starting with the most recent at the top of the list. Refer to the user guide for your openGear card to 
learn more about the types of error conditions that your card reports.

2. Toggle Button

The 

Toggle

 button is located directly to the left of the Diagnostic Panel and enables you to mute the audio alarm, 

or quickly scroll through the error messages reported on the second line of the Diagnostic Panel.

› Pressing the 

Toggle

 button once mutes the audio alarm.

› Pressing the 

Toggle

 button multiple times scrolls through the messages.

If you are scrolling through the list and a new error condition is reported, the list is automatically updated and 
returns you to the beginning of the list.

3. Door Tabs

These tabs enable you to open the frame door and gain access to the interior of the frame. An alarm is raised 
when the frame door is opened longer than 5 minutes.

4. Frame Glow

This feature is a user-programmable frame glow that can be configured to glow a preset color, or customized 
colors to indicate different alarms. This is also useful when trying to locate the frame within a rack room. Refer 
to the 

MFC-OG3-N and MFC-8322-S User Guide

 for details on configuring this feature.
