B.6.1 Trouble Shooting
If these messages do not appear on the screen, or if other problems occur after switching
on the computer system (screen remains dark etc.), you should check the entire installation
over again:
Are you using a functioning unbuffered PC133 SO-DIMM/DIMM (min. 32MB) ?
ICP Controllers of the RZ Series require ECC memory.
Try another one.
DIMM plugged firmly into the socket ?
Unplug it and plug it in again.
Is the ICP Controller plugged into a PCI bus-master Slot ?
Check this. If necessary, try another slot. For GDT4xy3RZ the slot must supply 3.3Volt.
Are the SCSI cables, the SCSI-IDs and the SCSI termination OK ?
Disconnect the cables from the ICP Controller. Try other cables.
B.6.2 Checking the ICP Controller Configuration
As mentioned before, these settings can be changed through soft-switches in the ICP Con-
troller setup program ICPCON. All settings are permanently stored on the ICP Controller.
The following table shows the various options and the possible settings.
