LCD panel overview
Each array controller contains an integrated Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). This module is used for
displaying informational and error messages, showing the status of the module, and for providing user
input when required.
Traditional Power-On Self-Test (POST) messages issued by the PCI-based controllers have been combined
with runtime event notification messages to create a new set of controller display messages. The
display module is capable of holding up to 100 messages. After this maximum size is reached, older
messages are removed to make room for newer ones. When a new message is sent to the LCD, the
display shows that message and ignores any previous scrolling position. This new message is now the
most recent message available.
To use the input buttons on the LCD panel:
• Press the Up navigation button to view older messages.
• Press the Down navigation button to view more recent messages.
• Press the Left navigation button to jump to the last message.
• Press the Right navigation button to enter the Management menu.
• Press the Left and Right navigation buttons at the same time to delete the currently displayed message.
The display module consists of the following components:
