Figure 39 Alarm Indicator
After you acknowledge the alarm, the alarm indicator is no longer highlighted,
but the word "Alarm" remains in the upper right corner of the screen to indicate
that an alarm has been acknowledged.
When the alarm is acknowledged and the condition that caused the alarm is
cleared, the indicator disappears entirely. If a menu indicates that an alarm has
been acknowledged and a new alarm occurs, the Alarm indicator is highlighted
again.
See "Managing System Alarms" in Chapter 5, for instructions on acknowledging
alarms.
After you install the PathBuilder S330/S310 hardware, you must complete the
following four steps in order to put the unit into operation:
1 Configure the system clock(s).
2 Set up communication parameters.
3 Set the time and date.
4 Set up passwords.
The following subsections provide instructions for performing the four initial
configuration steps. See Chapter 4 for instructions on configuring specific
PathBuilder S330/S310 ports and modules.
By default, the PathBuilder S330/S310 switch uses the internal clock as its
reference clock. You can manage the system clock in the following ways:
Specify the clock sources to be used for system timing. You can specify up to
eight prioritized clock sources, including multiple ports of the same interface.
Specify the clock mode: revertive or non-revertive.
(revertive mode only) Set the revertive time—the length of time the system
monitors the highest priority system clock source before either reverting to it (if
is has become operative) or continuing to use a lower priority clock source.
