Fault finding on broken hardware

This checks can be preformed if the basic operation of the AMC card is still OK. <br\>

  • Prosessor and ram is OK
  • Ethernet or serial port works
  • Linux is able to boot - Login is available.

Even if the status LED's indicate red, Linux can still be available for diagnosis.

First step is to disable the hardware watchdog. If the AlphaCom software is not able to start then the hardware watchdog will continuously reset the card thus AlphaWeb is unavailable.

  • If the cards IP address is unknown cold boot the card
  • Try AlphaWeb login, if success do an AlphaSys upgrade in case some files is corrupted.
  • If still not working do the hardware check listed bellow.

If no AlphaWeb/telnet available enable the Linux console dip switch and use the serial port for further tests.


The following tests are done from console login. Super user password required.

MBI test

The MBI version can be read by the following memedit function.

memedit -1 0x56000300 16
56000300:   02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  "................"

The MBI version number is byte 1 and be "02".

SBI test

If the MBI works communication to the other SBI's through the backplane should work. <\br> Read SBI on first board position.

memedit -1 0x57008100 16
57008100:   01 ac 00 00 00 00 08 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

The value "ac" should be seen in byte 2. Read SBI on amcd card in board position 25 (E7/E20/E26).

memedit -1 0x570c8100 16
570C8100:   03 ac 03 01 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

"03 ac" should be seen.

DSP check

The following command list DSP diagnostics.

cat /proc/dspdrv

Example output on a running system:

Tone setup diagostic

The following command list the output from tone setup.

cat /tmp/z_amc_tone_setup.log

Example output on a OK system, notice a lot of "OK". If failure communication with the DSP's is in trouble.

d02 OK
d20 OK
d21 OK
d30 OK
#Set up 12 DTMF tones
DTMF0 OK
DTMF1 OK
DTMF2 OK
DTMF3 OK
DTMF4 OK
DTMF5 OK
DTMF6 OK
DTMF7 OK
DTMF8 OK
DTMF9 OK
DTMF* OK
DTMF# OK
#Set up loopback for 12 fader resources
