How to replace faulty NIU2 with a new NIU2/
The faulty NIU2 has BLF connected.
Please help.
Thank you
 
Hi there,

I see that you are new here, please don't spam the forum, you started 3 threads for the same problem.

Please add some more details?

- What system you are using (printout from CADAP;)
- Could you login before

Cheers,
Daddy

whosrdaddy,this is the print-out you are requesting.
My problem is I cannot access the system using port 1 and port 2 (system terminal) of the NIU2 but
port 3 is working (BLF).
please tell me the step by step how to change the NIU2 with a new NIU2.

Best Regards,
kompyuterman

Hi,
first , you have to know the EIC-Number of your system.
this number can be seen at the begin of the printout "LIDAP;"
or you can find it in the "niux" on your NIU board.

to enter the niux :
1.) send S and press ENTER (same way to enter the system BUT without ";")
>login: SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS "ENTER"

2.) enter the user name and password (without ";")
username ? >
password ? >

3.) now niux response with :
niux >

with "readeic a" you get the EIC of your system.
e.g.
niux > readeic a
all information relating to eic
eic type (hex) = 0 [NOT MASTER]
eic ipa (hex)= 4711
eic as (hex) = 10
niux >
--> my LAB has EIC 10-4711

5.) change NIU2 board and wait 1-2 min.
6.) connect to your system and check the alarmlog (ALLOP) and test if port 1 and 2 and BLF are working.
There should only be one alarm left (117 EIC mismatch)

7.) Exit system and connect to "niux" (see 1-3)

8.) write your EIC to your new NIU with command "writeeic"
writeeic <ipa> <as> // 'writeeic xxxx[hex] yy[hex]'
e.g.
niux > writeeic 4711 10

NOTE : EIC can only set once. EIC can not be changed, if you type it wrong !!!!

P.S.
with "quit" you can exit the "niux"
e.g.
niux > quit
## Connection to host lost

best regards,
Norbert
 
Norbert,how about the compactflash on faulty NIU?can I transfer the flash on new NIU?
 
you can transmit file from cf just with mddt or linux system . eic number must be match for new niu2 .
