Power Led Is Off - Motorola PTP 500 Series User Manual

9.1.1 Power LED is Off

If the green Power LED does not light up at all, perform the following tests:
1. Remove the power lead from the PIDU Plus and test that the power source (mains or
56 V battery) is working.
2. If the main or battery power supply is working, open the flap on the left hand side of
the PIDU Plus and remove the RJ45 ODU cable from the PIDU Plus.
3. If the Power LED does not illuminate when the RJ45 ODU cable is removed:
i. Measure the voltage across the +55 V and 0 V pads inside the PIDU Plus
ii. Measure the impedance across the Power connector. An incorrect reading
iii. If both of the above tests are successful, it is likely that the PIDU Plus Power
4. If the Power LED does illuminate when the RJ45 ODU cable is removed:
i. Remove the jumper (J905) found inside the PIDU Plus flap.
ii. Measure the current with an ammeter placed across the two jumper pins. It
5. If all tests so far have succeeded:
i. Reconnect the RJ45 ODU cable to the PIDU Plus.
ii. Measure the current with an ammeter placed across the two jumper pins. It
iii. If the ammeter reading is too high, the ODU may be drawing too much
iv. If the ammeter reading is too low, the PIDU Plus may be supplying too little
