Service Information

This chapter provides a Troubleshooting Checklist and the Warranty and Repair Policy for your TSI-100.

Troubleshooting Checklist

Routine maintenance to this openGear product is not required. In the event of problems with your TSI-100, the 
following basic troubleshooting checklist may help identify the source of the problem. If the frame still does not 
appear to be working properly after checking all possible causes, please contact your openGear products distributor, 
or the Technical Support department at the numbers listed under the “

Contact Us

” section.

1.

Visual

 

Review

 — Performing a quick visual check may reveal many problems, such as connectors not 

properly seated or loose cables. Check the card, the frame, and any associated peripheral equipment for signs of 
trouble.

2.

Power Check

 — Check the power indicator LED on the distribution frame front panel for the presence of 

power. If the power LED is not illuminated, verify that the power cable is connected to a power source and that 
power is available at the power main. Confirm that the power supplies are fully seated in their slots. If the 
power LED is still not illuminated, replace the power supply with one that is verified to work.

3.

Re-seat the Card in the Frame 

— Eject the card and re-insert it into the frame.

4.

Check Control Settings

 — Refer to the Installation and User Controls sections of this manual to verify all 

user-adjustable component settings

5.

Input Signal Status

 — Verify that source equipment is operating correctly and that a valid signal is being 

supplied.

6.

Output Signal Path

 — Verify that destination equipment is operating correctly and receiving a valid signal.

7.

Unit Exchange

 — Exchanging a suspect unit with a unit that is known to be working correctly is an efficient 

method for localizing problems to individual units.
