3. Fault, FOC2 interrupted:
OLM 1 OLM 2
SystemLED = lit green SystemLED = lit green
CH1/0 LED = lit yellow CH1/0 LED = lit yellow
CH2 LED = lit yellow CH2 LED = lit yellow
CH3 LED = lit red CH3 LED = lit red
2. The redundant optical ring consists of exactly two OLMs and both fiber-optic cable
connections are of exactly the same length.
Under these circumstances, that the receiving OLM receives a frame on both of the optical
channels at the same time. To manage this case, the OLM prioritizes the two optical
channels. By definition, the frame on one optical channel will then be taken as an echo
(channel LED = off) and the frame on the other optical channel will then be taken as a
forwarded frame (channel LED = yellow).
Due to the effect of jitter and the resulting sampling differences between the two optical input
channels, it is possible that one or the other optical channel receives a frame first. Due to the
extended display time of at least 300 ms. all channel LEDs are then lit yellow continuously.
Configuration 1/2 (FOC1 = FOC2), LED display A:
1. Situation, no FOC interruption:

SystemLED = lit green SystemLED = lit green
CH1/0 LED = lit yellow CH1/0 LED = lit yellow
(continuous, flashing, flickering) (continuous, flashing, flickering)
CH2 LED = lit yellow CH2 LED = lit yellow
(continuous, flashing, flickering) (continuous, flashing, flickering)
CH3 LED = lit yellow CH3 LED = lit yellow
(continuous, flashing, flickering) (continuous, flashing, flickering)
2. Fault, FOC1 interrupted:

3. Fault, FOC2 interrupted:

Generally:
Regardless of whether a channel LED is lit or not, all optical channels are monitored
continuously in the redundant optical ring. If a channel LED is not lit, the frames circulating
on this channel are used to monitor the transmission line. The productive communication is
implemented over the channel with the LED lit yellow.
Without exception, faults are indicated by a red channel LED and by the signaling contact.
We recommend that you connect the signaling contact for safe monitoring of the OLM.
