Matrix: Eclipse Median / Omega processor card error messages shown on dot matrix display
Question: I have an Eclipse Median frame and when I powered up the frame with a spare processor card that I wanted to upgrade to ECS 5.2 I saw the following message displayed on the processor card dot matrix display, "Non matching slave firmware". What does this message indicate?
Answer: The rectangular array of lights just below the power-supply lights displays a number (either 1, 2, 3, or 4) to indicate the currently selected configuration. The Eclipse Configuration Software (ECS) controls these lights. In addition these lights will indicate if the following errors are detected at startup:
Non matching slave firmware
The eclipse system only supports master and slave backup between two cards that are running the same version of firmware. In the case when a non matching slave card firmware version is detected the "NON-MATCHING SLAVE_FIRMWARE" banner is displayed by the master CPU card. To fix the issue use the ECS firmware up dater to update the ECS application firmware for the slave processor card.
NVRAM Error
When the NVRAM is found to be corrupt at start up the config card will output the string "CHECK BATTERY".
The dot matrix lights will also display system information when the “ENG” button is pressed on the master CPU card.
