Notice (continued)
Telecommunications Regulations
Equipment that complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules includes a label or permanent
marking on the printed circuit board that connects to the network that contains, among other
information, the FCC registration number and ringer equivalence number (REN) for this
equipment. If requested, this information must be provided to the telephone company. A plug
and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network must
comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A
compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be
connected to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions
for details.
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone
line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to
an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To
be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total
RENs, contact the local telephone company. The REN for this product is part of the product
identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the
REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3).
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify
you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance
notice isn't practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible.
Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is
necessary. The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations
or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens the telephone
company will provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to
maintain uninterrupted service. If the equipment is causing harm to the telephone network,
the telephone company may request that you disconnect the equipment until the problem is
resolved. Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public
utility commission, public service commission or corporation commission for information. If
your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the
installation of this equipment does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions
about what will disable alarm equipment, consult a trained technician.
Equipment that meets the applicable Industry Canada Terminal Equipment Technical
Specifications is conformed by the registration number. Equipment that complies with
Industry rules includes a label or permanent marking on the printed circuit board that
connects to the network. The abbreviation, IC, before the registration number signifies that
the registration was performed based on a Declaration of Conformity indicating that Industry
Canada technical specifications were met. It does not imply that Industry Canada approved
the equipment.

V.24 Cable
V.24 DCE Cable

The following table shows the DCE pinouts for the V.24 cable. These pins are
assigned double functions in the V.24 cable:
Pin 15: Outputs TRANSMIT CLOCK if the port is configured for internal
clocks. Otherwise it acts as a V.54 Loop 3 signal when connected to a modem.
Pin 22: Used as the Ring Indicator output if the port is configured to emulate a
dial modem. For this to work properly, the RI/TM switch of the port must be
set to RI. When the RI/TM switch is set to TM, this pin acts as an input, and

C-1

While Powering Up the Vanguard 320

While Powering Up the Vanguard 320

Introduction

This section documents how to troubleshoot problems you many encounter when
powering up the Vanguard 320.

Hardware Failure

If the TEST light turns on and remains on, one or more of the diagnostic tests have
failed, indicating there is a hardware problem. Contact Customer Support for
possible repairs to your Vanguard 320.

Diagnostic Failure

If the TEST light does not blink at all, but the Status light is on, the diagnostic
software image is corrupted. Perform a download of the software option bundle.

Powerup Failure

If the STATUS light blinks continuously, at a constant rate, the software bundle in
Flash memory is corrupted. Perform a cold load of the software option bundle. See
the Software Installation and Coldloading Manual (Part Number T0028) for more
information.

Troubleshooting

This table lists some of the potential problems you may encounter during the
coldload procedure:

Problem

Cause

What to do...

At the end of the loading,

the node outputs the
message, V320 - wrong
cloader was loaded.

Your coldloader is not

compatible with the Boot
PROM installed in the
Vanguard 320. This error
message appears if you
attempt to use a 5.1M and
lower coldloader for Boot
PROM Rev. 3.0.

Download the latest

coldloader software
(5.2 or higher).
The latest coldloader
software is available at:
https://
secure.vanguardms.com

At the end of the loading,

the node outputs the
message, V320 incompatible image was
loaded.

You attempted to load a

software image that is not
compatible with the Boot
PROM installed in the
Vanguard 320. This error
appears when you attempt
to load a 5.1M and lower
software image onto a
Vanguard 320 that is
installed with Boot PROM
Rev. 3.0.

Download the latest

software image
(5.2 or higher).
The latest software images
are available at:
https://
secure.vanguardms.com

A V320 - failed erase

and/or programming
procedure error message
appears.

This is caused by an error

in the flash programming.

Reset the node using the

reset switch located on the
front panel or power cycle
the node.

At the end of the loading,

the node outputs the
message VG320 awaiting coldload.

This is because a wrong or

corrupted image has been
loaded into the node and is
being ignored by the
Vanguard 320.

Check to ensure that the

image you are
downloading is intended
for the platform.

Troubleshooting Your Vanguard 320

C-3

While Coldloading a New Software Image

C-4

Problem

Cause

What to do...

After downloading the

image, the node runs
startup diagnostics but
then locks up, and power
cycling the node does not
recover it.

You may have

downloaded a bad image,
or the image is not
compatible with the
CMEM configuration in
the node.

Check the image you

just downloaded, and
if a wrong image has
been downloaded,
you can use the ZAP
utility to either erase
the software image or
the CMEM image in
the node. This will
also allow you to
reload a new software image or start
from blank CMEM to
isolate the cause of
the problem.
If the problem
persists, contact
Customer Support.

When using the Vanguard

Software Loader to
coldload software images
into the Vanguard 320,
coldloading can fail if the
speed is 115200 bps.

Speed is to high.

Select a lower
coldload speed of
57600 bps or 38400
bps.

Troubleshooting Your Vanguard 320

While Coldloading a New Software Image

Using the ZAP Utility

What Is It?

If you type ZAP while the startup diagnostics are running the DRAM tests, you will
interrupt the normal startup flow and get into the ZAP mode. This invokes a special
utility to either erase the software image or the CMEM image in the node. This also
lets you reload a new software image or start from blank CMEM to isolate the cause
of the problem.
