This soft copy for use by IBM employees only.
First, if you can access the IBM 8285 using the console interface, it means the
IBM 8285 microcode works fine. The level and status of the IBM 8285 microcode
can be checked using the SHOW DEVICE command. And the SHOW MODULE
command can be used to check the FPGA picocode level and status of an ATM
blade.
Figure 37 shows the console screen when the SHOW MODULE command is
issued to check the physical installation status.

Notes
1 The SHOW MODULE command is issued to the IBM 8285 base unit
that has an expansion unit with a WAN module connected to it.
2 All status indicators of the Base Unit (install, connect and operation)
are Y (yes) but only the install status of module installed in the
expansion unit is Y. This is normal.
If you don′t have the expansion unit, only the first line, starting with
slot number 1, is displayed.
3 To change the other status indicators, issue the SET MODULE
command.
4 The SHOW MODULE command is issued after the SET MODULE
command.
5 All of the status indicators of the module have become Y. This means
the physical installation has been done successfully. If any status
does not become Y, check the physical installation procedure.
