Diagnostic Mode (RMX 1500/2000/4000)

You cannot run diagnostics on the MPM card.
Diagnostic Mode is a debugging tool for performing hardware diagnostics that detect
malfunctions in the hardware component's performance. Diagnostics are performed only
for the MFA, CPU and Switch (Cards: MPM+/MPMx, CPU, RTM IP and RTM ISDN). Two
types of Diagnostic Modes are available:
•
•
A user using an Administrator Login, will be able to view and access the Basic Mode.
However, a Administrator "user" with Administrator permissions must be defined on the
RMX system. For more information see "Adding a New User" on page 13-4. A SUPPORT user
can access both the Basic Mode and Advanced Mode Diagnostics.
When Diagnostic Mode is initialized, the MCU is reset and upon restarting, the MCU will
enter Diagnostic Mode. Entering this mode causes the MCU to terminate all active
conferences and prohibits conferences from being established.
Diagnostic Mode is only enabled when connecting directly to the Shelf Management server.
