Note
i
There are two types of firmware files when you receive a firmware folder from
your vendor. When you need to update the firmware as the final resolution in case
your device is in safe mode like above, ensure that the firmware means the
firmware file for the device with the file name as GXi-V.1.X.X.X-~~~.enc.
Browse
6.5. Safe Mode
What is Safe Mode?
Your IP camera or encoder could encounter an unexpected occasion such as broken firmware
file or uncompleted loading of firmware file during system booting. To restore the device from
the occasions, the device provides the emergency firmware as a factory default. Your device
will get restarted with safe mode when there is any error on your booting system files.
Why does your IP camera or encoder boot in Safe Mode?
Normally, the cause of ‘safe mode’ is classified into two types.
* When the power supply is unplugged in the middle of system booting.
* When the firmware files required for system booting are damaged.
IMPORTANT: Your device will turn into the safe mode when it fails to boot certain times.
How to recover your system from Safe Mode
The messages above will appear on the webpage when your device has been rebooted in ‘safe
mode’. Then, you should follow the instructions on the webpage according to the steps in a
row.
06-2014-B 23

Note
i
There is another method to update firmware, which is using IPAdminTool.
Please refer to ‘IPAdminTool User’s Manual.pdf’ for the detailed procedure.
Note
i
If your device is still at safe mode after trying to update firmware, please contact
your local agency to get further assistance.
* Firmware update for safe mode itself: If you want to update the firmware for safe mode, you
should upload a firmware file with the following file name: GXi-SAFEMODE.~~~.enc.

With non-Power Sourcing Equipment (non-PSE)
When it is connected with non PSE, the power adaptor should be connected.
With power adaptor
Connecting both PSE and power adaptor does not do any harm to the product.
Disconnecting PSE or power adaptor from device does not reboot the device as
long as either one is connected to the device.
APPENDIX (B): POWER OVER ETHERNET
The Power over Ethernet (PoE) is designed to extract power from a conventional twisted pair
Category 5 Ethernet cable, conforming to the IEEE 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) standard.
The IEEE 802.3af allows for two power options for Category 5 cables.
The IEEE 802.3af-2003 standard allows up to 15.4 W of power to device. However, 12.95W is
the available power, as some power gets lost in the cable.
The updated IEEE 802.3at-2009 (PoE+) standard allows up to 25.5W (Max 34.2 W) of power to
device. PoE has advantages over conventional power in such places where AC powers cannot
be reached or is expensive to wire.
Power Comparison
The PoE Property supported by the device is 802.3af.
