• LEDs: Device status indicating LEDs are placed on all of the subsystem’s active
components. These LEDs inform you of the integrity of a given component or of
a given FC link. You should become familiar with the different LEDs that are
present on the subsystem and be aware of their functions.
• Audible alarm: An audible alarm is present on the subsystem controller board
and will be triggered if any of a number of threatening events occurs. These
events usually jeopardize the functional and operational integrity of the
controller board and must be heeded at all times. Events such as a breach of the
temperature threshold will trigger the alarm and if an onsite subsystem manager
is present, the manager should use either the LCD panel or the terminal station
to determine the cause of the alarm and take the appropriate corrective measures.

bus that is used to monitor the operational integrity of the cooling and PSU
modules; or collect data from temperature sensors (present/not present,
ready/fail, etc.).
Subsystem monitoring is a necessary part of subsystem management. When failure events
or other disruptive events are detected and reported, the subsystem manager must take the
appropriate action to rectify the problem. Failure to act in a properly specified manner to
a system event (such as overheating) can cause severe and permanent damage to the
subsystem.
