Backplane information
Field
Description
Received Multicast CRC
Number of multicast ControlBus transfers this module sent that a recipient declared as having a CRC error. This is typically caused by electrical noise getting coupled into the ControlBus.
Received Bad CRC
Number of point-to-point ControlBus transfers this module sent that a recipient declared as having a CRC error. This is typically caused by electrical noise getting coupled into the ControlBus.
Received Bus Timeouts
Number of ControlBus transfers that this module initiated that exceeded the maximum transfer time. This is typically caused by a hardware failure.
Transmit Bad CRC
Number of point-to-point ControlBus transfers this module declared as having a CRC error. This is typically caused by electrical noise getting coupled into the ControlBus.
Transmit Bus Timeout
Number of ControlBus transfers that this module received that exceeded the maximum transfer time. This is typically caused by a hardware failure.
Multicast CRC Threshold
Number of consecutive errors that will be reported as a module fault.
Transmit Retry Limit
Number of times a transmission will be attempted before declaring the transmission has failed.
