2449.0. "ds900 red temp alert" by KERNEL::SMITH_P () Fri Jun 30 1995 08:34

    Hi,
        we are currently experiencing our week of summer here in the UK. 
    I have a customer who is seeing yellow/red temp alert on his hub900.
    
    Anybody know the temperature thresholds at which these alerts are
    triggered?
    
    Thanks,
    Paul.

    Pre-WAVE 3 Modules

	Temp Yellow  30-35C Ambient	Fan Speed bumped up from 8v to 12v.
					Modules should continue to run happily.

	Temp Red     60-70C Ambient	Module initiates orderly shutdown.


    WAVE 3 (and after) Modules 

	             30-35C Ambient	Fan Speed bumped up from 8v to 12v.
					Modules should continue to run happily.
					No alarm is issued.

	Temp Yellow  45-50C Ambient	

	Temp Red     60-70C Ambient	Module initiates orderly shutdown.



	I would be surprised and worried if the Hub reported Temp Red.
	It would warrant an investigation to see that the installation
	was properly ventilated.

    John,
          thanks for the prompt reply. The hub is mounted in a comms rack
    with other equipment including a monitor. Opening the doors on the rack
    drops the alert from red to yellow. Given the temperature thresholds
    that you quoted, the whole installation sounds very unhealthy. Think
    I'll get somebody down there!
    
    Thanks again,
    Paul.

    the temperature settings for the hub is different fromthe modules.
    
    the yellow temp was around 65C and the red around 72C.  I could be more
    exact if I was able to locate my notebook...
