EPP4加密鍵盤故障處理手冊(轉貼)

因為有人提到加密鍵盤常亮紅燈的問題，所以將EPP4加密鍵盤的指示燈作用放在下面，可供參考。

Troubleshooting
The Encrypting PIN Pad (EPP4) has two visual indicators, a green LED and a red LED, located on the power CCA. The LEDs provide a method of determining the status of the EPP4 during operation. Table 2-1 contains a description of the LED stages of operation and specific failure modes.
2.1 Normal OperationThe Encrypting PIN Pad (EPP4) provides 2 on-board LEDs on the power CCA. The LEDs provide a visual indication of the present operational stage of the EPP4. Table 2-1 lists the normal operation of the Encrypting PIN Pad (EPP4) in order of occurrence after power-up.

2.2 FailuresIf the EPP4 fails to complete the normal operation stages listed in Table 2-1, then a possible failure has occurred. Use Table 2-2 to identify failure conditions.

Red Green Indication Comment
OnOnThe EPP4 contains no valid bootstrap loader nor a valid applicationIf both LEDs are on longer than 60 seconds, then the EPP4 needs repair. The firmware cannot load. Send the unit for repair.OffOnThe EPP4 contains a valid bootstrap loader Re-boot the terminal processor once or twice to automatically recover from this failure mode. If the error persists, replace the unit.Blinking 2 HzOffExternal communication: The application is waiting for the first command and the initial certificates are not loadedIf this is observed and certificates are required, send the unit for certificate loading.Blinking 6 HzOffKuhn attack prevention activatedCommunication will be possible again after 30 minutes of uninterrupted power (Refer to Kuhn Attack Section 2.2.1).

A Kuhn attack is a method used by hackers to retrieve sensitive information by rapidly and repeatedly power failing a device.

2.2.1.2 Kuhn Attack Mode
Certification standards require that the EPP4 protect itself against Kuhn attacks. To prevent such an attack, the EPP4 invokes a Kuhn attack mode when the total number of rapid, repeated power-up and power-down cycles reaches 64.
