Take the following actions:
The WAC adapter card is not
1. An EIB may not be installed properly
working as expected.
Check to be sure the EIB is in place and the
EIB-specific cable is connected securely.
2. There may be a configuration error.
Verify that the configuration parameters are correct.
3. If the problem still exists after these actions are taken,
replace the WAC adapter card.
4. If the problem persists, run the diagnostics again
for the computer system to identify the problem.
