sspar

You must have a program loaded in the Master SSP in order to check secondary SSP's. To do this, use sspar to load any program, like this: 

setup fastbus
cd $BNLSSP
sspar
slot 8
down arbtst
exit
Since there are now 2 SSP's in the master crate, you can also look out into the cable through the other one like this: 
setup fastbus
cd $BNLSSP
sspar
slot b
down arbtst
exit
If you then look out onto the cable segment like this: 
sspar
slot 800
scan
you should see this: 
 Scan from route: 000008h - From the CFI's crate segment
 on through the SSP at geographic address:  8 (  8h)  to its cable segment
 At:  1 (  1h) is: SSP  (SLAC Scanner Processor)................... ID: 0106
 At:  2 (  2h) is: SSP  (SLAC Scanner Processor)................... ID: 0106
 At:  3 (  3h) is: SSP  (SLAC Scanner Processor)................... ID: 0106

If it looks like this: 
 Scan from route: 000008h - From the CFI's crate segment
 on through the SSP at geographic address:  8 (  8h)  to its cable segment
 At:  1 (  1h) is: SS=6
 At:  2 (  2h) is: unknown device type............................. ID: 10F7
 At:  3 (  3h) is: SS=6
 At:  5 (  5h) is: SS=6
 At:  7 (  7h) is: SS=6
 At:  8 (  8h) is: SS=6
 At:  9 (  9h) is: SS=6
 At: 10 (  Ah) is: SS=6
 At: 11 (  Bh) is: SS=6
 At: 16 ( 10h) is: SSP  (SLAC Scanner Processor)................... ID: 0106
 At: 17 ( 11h) is: SSP  (SLAC Scanner Processor)................... ID: 0106
 At: 18 ( 12h) is: unknown device type............................. ID: 3EFF
 At: 19 ( 13h) is: SSP  (SLAC Scanner Processor)................... ID: 0106
 At: 20 ( 14h) is: SS=6
 At: 21 ( 15h) is: SS=6
 At: 22 ( 16h) is: SS=6
 At: 23 ( 17h) is: SS=6
 At: 24 ( 18h) is: SSP  (SLAC Scanner Processor)................... ID: 0106
 At: 30 ( 1Eh) is: SSP  (SLAC Scanner Processor)................... ID: 0106
 At: 31 ( 1Fh) is: Kinetics F290 display........................... ID: 1007
 At:255 ( FFh) is: GAC card, cable seg............................. ID: 1002
it is not working, and is not going to work without your intervention. If all that is wrong is that some of the SSP's ID's are 0107 instead of 0106, you can reset them with the front panel switch, or type 
sspar
slot 814
wcsr 0 80000000
slot 800
scan
to put it to rights, in this case the SSP at cable segment primary address 14h.
