Fault finding on broken hardware

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

  • Prosessor and ram are 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 and Login 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 the AMC application still not will start do the hardware checks listed bellow.

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


The following tests are done from console login, either from serial-link or telnet. 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 read from byte 1 and should be "02".

If only "FF FF...." or "00 00 00..." the data link to the MBI is broken.

SBI test

If the MBI works communication to the other SBI's through the backplane should work.
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.
If no card present in position 1 the reading will be "ff ff ff ..."

Read the local 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.
If output is "ff ff..." or "00 00 ..." the backplane communication is broken or the SBI-FPGA is not loaded correctly.


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, the communication with the DSP's are 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
loop0c OK
loop0d OK
loop0e OK
loop0f OK
loop10 OK
 .... and it continues for a while.....

Driver status

DSP driver and DSP chips

The following command list DSP diagnostics.

cat /proc/dspdrv

Example output on a running system:

MBI IRQ driver

Check the IRQ from the MBI to the IXP.

cat /proc/mbi_irq
mbi drv Status:
        real irq: 540779
        GPIO-3 state: 1
        wake up count: 0

When the AMC application is running The GPIO-3 should be 1 and "real irq" should be increasing each time the function is called.

Watchdog driver

Watchdog status, you can see the toggling of watchdog pin/LED status etc.

cat /proc/driver/wdog
WatchDog and LED driver version 0202
Device open count: 2
