Dell PowerEdge 4350 Systems Service Manual
2.
For each power supply, check the status indicator.
Is the green status indicator on, indicating normal operation?
Yes.
Proceed to step 3.
No.
Troubleshoot the system power supply.
3.
Watch the <Num Lock>, <Caps Lock>, and <Scroll Lock> indicators on the
upper-right corner of the keyboard. After all three indicators flash momen-
tarily, and following a long pause (approximately 30 seconds), the
<Num Lock> indicator should light up and remain on (unless the
Num
Lock
option is set to
Off
in the System Setup program).
Do these indicators flash on and off within approximately 10 seconds after
the boot routine starts?
Yes.
Proceed to step 4.
No.
Troubleshoot the DIMMs and the microprocessor(s). See ±DIMMs²
and ±SEC Cartridge and Heat Sink Assembly² in Chapter 4.
If the troubleshooting procedure indicates that the DIMMs and micro-
processor(s) are operational, the planar may be faulty. See ±Getting Help²
in this chapter.
4.
During the boot routine, observe the system for any of the following:
¹
Beep codes
: A beep code is a series of beeps that indicates an error
condition. If the system emits a beep code, see Table 3-1 later in this
manual.
¹
System error messages
: These messages can indicate problems or
provide status information. If a system error message is displayed,
see Table 3-2 later in this manual.
¹
Diskette-drive and hard-disk drive access indicators
: These indicators
light up in response to data being transferred to or from the drives. If
either of these indicators fails to light up during the boot routine,
troubleshoot the diskette drive or hard-disk drive subsystem, as
appropriate.
5.
Observe the monitor screen for the
Diagnostics
Menu
.
Does the
Diagnostics Menu
appear?
Yes.
See ±Running the Dell Diagnostics² found later in this chapter.
No.
Proceed to step 6.
