Fault Reporting

The Following fault reporting is possible from Tesira Server, Server IO, TesiraFORTÉ, TesiraLUX, Tesira Amplifier and Tesira expander class devices:

NOTE: fault reporting during VoIP 802.1X authentication features unique behavior noted here: VoIP_Authentication.

Server, Server IO and TesiraFORTÉ Front Panel

The front panel provides a submenu that contains a combined list of the hostname of the local server device and hostnames of all remote devices proxied by the local Server, Server IO, TesiraLUX or TesiraFORTÉ which are currently in fault. If there is a fault detected locally within the server-class device, its hostname will be at the top of the list. If no faults are detected for the device (local or remote), then its hostname will not appear in the device list.

NOTE: TesiraFORTÉ X faults will be displayed on the front panel Alarm LED.

Software Reporting

When connected to Tesira Software the System Status LED in the Status Bar shows overall fault status of the system. This LED shows the most severe fault for all Tesira Server, Server IO, TesiraLUX, TesiraFORTÉ, Tesira Amplifier and Tesira expander devices in the system. Its purpose is to give a quick view to the user whether any device in the system has a fault, including remote devices.

Clicking on the System Status LED will open the System Status dialog. This list will contain servers and remote devices found in the Equipment Table.  

The System Status dialog will show all discovered devices regardless of their fault status. Even a device without faults will be shown here as long as they are discovered. Server, Server IO, TesiraLUX, TesiraFORTÉ and Tesira amplifier class devices are discovered explicitly by Tesira Software whereas remote devices are discovered by their proxies. If any device, Server, Server IO, TesiraLUX, TesiraFORTÉ or remote expander, is no longer discovered, it will not be shown in this list.

Third Party Control

The active fault list can also be obtained via third party control using the DEVICE service address. See the Device TTP section for more details.

Example - With no faults

DEVICE get activeFaultList

+OK "value":[{"id":INDICATOR_NONE_IN_DEVICE "name":"No fault in device" "faults":[] "serialNumber":"02707144"} {"id":INDICATOR_NONE_IN_DEVICE "name":"No fault in device" "faults":[] "serialNumber":"01885645"} {"id":INDICATOR_NONE_IN_DEVICE"name":"No fault in device" "faults":[] "serialNumber":"01905175"} {"id":INDICATOR_NONE_IN_DEVICE "name":"No fault in device" "faults":[] "serialNumber":"01885643"}]

 

Example - With two expanders displaying faults

DEVICE get activeFaultList

+OK "value":[{"id":INDICATOR_MAJOR_IN_DEVICE "name":"Major Fault in Device" "faults":[{"id":FAULT_AVB_STREAM_INACTIVE "name":"One or more AVB streams inactive"}] "serialNumber":"02707144"} {"id":INDICATOR_MINOR_IN_DEVICE "name":"Minor Fault in Device" "faults":[{"id":FAULT_AUDIO_CLOCKS_NOT_SYNCHRONIZED_BY_NAME "name":"Audio clocks not synchronized on network AVB Default"} {"id":FAULT_EXPANDER_MINOR_FAULT_IN_DEVICE "name":"Expander device (EX-IO-01885645) has minor fault"} {"id":FAULT_EXPANDER_MINOR_FAULT_IN_DEVICE "name":"Expander device (EX-OUT-01885643) has minor fault"}] "serialNumber":"02707144"} {"id":INDICATOR_MAJOR_IN_SYSTEM "name":"Major Fault in System" "faults":[] "serialNumber":"02707144"} {"id":INDICATOR_MINOR_IN_SYSTEM "name":"Minor Fault in System" "faults":[] "serialNumber":"02707144"} {"id":INDICATOR_MINOR_IN_DEVICE "name":"Minor Fault in Device" "faults":[{"id":FAULT_AUDIO_CLOCKS_NOT_SYNCHRONIZED "name":"Audio clocks not synchronized on AVB network"}] "serialNumber":"01885645"} {"id":INDICATOR_NONE_IN_DEVICE "name":"No fault in device" "faults":[] "serialNumber":"01905175"} {"id":INDICATOR_MINOR_IN_DEVICE "name":"Minor Fault in Device" "faults":[{"id":FAULT_AUDIO_CLOCKS_NOT_SYNCHRONIZED "name":"Audio clocks not synchronized on AVB network"}] "serialNumber":"01885643"}]
