The light guide part can comprise a light guide head and a light guide plate, and the light guide head can be connected with the indicator light. The pilot lamp inlays in leading the optical head to the pilot lamp is exposed in leading the optical head towards the one end of casing outside. Be provided with the mounting hole on the casing, the leaded light head is installed in the mounting hole, and the pilot lamp inlays in the leaded light head. The light guide plate is connected with the light guide head, and the other end of the light guide plate extends to the light sensor on the circuit board. The light guide head and the outer surface of the light guide plate are coated with a light shielding layer.

In step S720, when the difference between the detection signal and the target signal is greater than the preset threshold, it is determined that the indicator light has a fault, and the target signal is a signal detected by the detection module when the indicator light is working normally.

Whether the indicator lamp has a fault or not is determined through the control module, and when the detection module is a voltage detection circuit, the detection signal and the target signal are both voltage signals. Under the ideal condition of the target signal, when the indicator lamp displays the target state, the working voltage of the indicator lamp is indicated.

The voltage detection circuit detects the working voltage of the indicator light, and the control module receives a voltage signal detected by the voltage detection circuit and determines whether the indicator light has a fault according to the voltage signal. For example, when the indicator light normally works, the working voltage of the indicator light is a first voltage, and when the indicator light is turned off, the working voltage of the indicator light is a second voltage. When the difference value between the working voltage detected by the voltage detection circuit and the first voltage is smaller than the preset threshold value during the working of the indicator lamp, the indicator lamp is considered to work normally, otherwise, the indicator lamp is considered to be abnormal.

When the detection module is a current detection circuit, the detection signal and the target signal are both current signals. Under the ideal condition of the target signal, when the indicator lamp displays the target state, the working current of the indicator lamp is indicated. When the working current of the indicator lamp detected by the current detection circuit is within a preset range, the control module determines that the indicator lamp normally works. When the working current of the indicator lamp detected by the current detection circuit is out of the preset range, the control determines that the indicator lamp is in fault.

When the detection module is a light sensor, the detection signal and the target signal are both light signals (such as the intensity of light or the color of light). The light sensor detects light emitted by the indicator light, and the light sensor detects the luminous intensity of the indicator light. When the luminous intensity of the indicator lamp is consistent with a preset intensity threshold value (target signal), the control module determines that the indicator lamp normally works. When the luminous intensity of the indicator lamp is inconsistent with the preset intensity threshold value, the control module determines that the indicator lamp has a fault.

In step S730, the prompt module may be controlled to output a failure indication signal, and the prompt module is disposed in the customer premises equipment.

When the controller determines that the indicator lamp fails, the controller controls the power supply switch to be switched off, so that the failed indicator lamp can be prevented from displaying wrong state information, and interference is generated on a user.

The prompting module is connected with the control module and used for prompting the fault of the user indicator lamp. The user is prompted about the fault of the indicator light through the prompting module, so that the user is prevented from misjudging the fault of the signal of the customer front-end equipment.

Step S730 may be implemented by controlling the standby indicator lamp to emit light to output a fault indication signal. The prompting module can be a standby indicator light, and the standby indicator light is connected with the power supply and the controller through a standby switch. When the controller determines that the indicator light has a fault, the controller provides a control signal to the backup switch, and the backup switch is turned on in response to the control signal to light the backup indicator light.

Or step S730 can be implemented by controlling the voice prompting device to sound to output the fault indication signal. The prompting module can be a voice prompting device, the voice prompting device is connected with the controller, when the controller detects the fault of the indicating lamp, the controller controls the voice prompting device to generate a voice prompting signal, and the fault of the indicating lamp is prompted to a user through the voice prompting signal. The voice prompt device can prompt the fault of the indicator light when the computer is started every time or prompt the fault of the indicator light every preset time.

Or step S730 may be implemented by the control prompting module sending a fault indication signal to the management device, where the management device is connected to the customer premise equipment for managing the customer premise equipment. The prompting module can be a communication module which is used for sending an indicator lamp fault signal to the management equipment when the indicator lamp is in fault. The indicator light fault signal is used for prompting the management user that the client front-end equipment is normal in function, and only the indicator light is in fault. The management device may be a terminal, such as a mobile phone or a tablet computer, configured by a user for managing the client front-end device.

In step S740, the indicator light is controlled to stop emitting light when the indicator light has a failure.

Wherein, can realize that control pilot lamp stops to give out light through the control module group. The control module comprises a power supply, a power supply switch and a controller; the power supply switch is respectively connected with the power supply and the indicator light; the controller is connected with the power supply switch and the detection module, and the controller is used for controlling the power supply switch to be switched on or switched off and determining whether the indicator lamp has a fault or not according to the detection signal.

The power source may be a battery or a power conversion circuit. A battery is disposed within the housing for providing power to the individual devices within the customer premises equipment. The power conversion circuit is used for connecting an external power supply (such as commercial power) and converting the external power supply into a power signal required by the customer premises equipment. The power conversion circuit comprises a rectification circuit, a voltage regulation circuit and the like, wherein the rectification circuit converts alternating current commercial power into direct current, and the voltage regulation circuit converts the voltage of a power signal into target voltage.

The power supply switch can be a relay switch, an electromagnetic switch or a MOS tube and the like. The input end of the power supply switch is connected with the power supply, the output end of the power supply switch is connected with the indicator lamp, and the control end of the power supply switch is connected with the controller. The controller provides a control signal to the power switch, which is turned on or off in response to the control signal.

The controller can be a processor or a microprocessor, and the controller receives the detection signal detected by the detection module and outputs a control signal according to the detection signal. For example, when the detection signal indicates that the indicator light is normal, the controller outputs a first control signal, and the power supply switch is turned on in response to the first control signal. When the detection signal indicates that the indicator lamp is in fault, the controller outputs a second control signal, and the power supply switch is turned off in response to the second control signal.

When the controller determines that the indicator light has a fault, the controller controls the power supply switch to be switched off, so that the fault indicator light can be prevented from displaying wrong state information, and interference is generated on a user.

In step S750, when the indicator is normal, the indicator is controlled to emit light according to a preset rule.

Wherein, when the control module group confirms that the pilot lamp is normal according to the detected signal that detects the module output, control module group control pilot lamp is luminous according to predetermineeing the rule. The preset rule is a rule stored on the client front-end device. For example, when the customer premises equipment receives the 4G signal, the first signal source indicator lamp displays green, and otherwise displays red. When the customer premises equipment receives the 5G signal, the second signal source indicator lamp displays green, otherwise, red. When customer premises equipment launches the wiFi signal, the wiFi pilot lamp shows green, otherwise shows red etc..

The fault detection method for the indicator lamp provided by the embodiment of the disclosure detects the working state of the indicator lamp through the detection module and outputs the detection signal, the control module drives the indicator lamp to emit light, and determines whether the indicator lamp has a fault according to the detection signal, so that the fault detection of the indicator lamp is realized, and the misjudgment of the user on the working state of the customer front-end equipment caused by the fault of the indicator lamp is avoided. Therefore, the problems of maintenance, machine withdrawal and the like caused by the fact that the fault cannot be accurately positioned are avoided.
