When the camera is first powered ON, all LEDs will illuminate. During this
time, basic system hardware checks are being performed. These checks
include communication with the camera interface board which verifies
proper installation of the camera block on the pan/tilt unit. After the initial
system checks are completed, the LEDs will turn on and off one by one in
a binary pattern. This pattern represents the progress the camera is making
during hardware initialization. During this initialization, pan/tilt positions
and camera settings are being restored. Once initialization is complete, the
camera LEDs will represent the following functions:
•
Indicates that the camera has an active power supply and is powered ON.
• (Between the Power and COM LEDs) The camera is in the camera
setup mode.
• Indicates that the camera is receiving valid network data on a communication
link (the LEDs on the back of the camera only indicate line activity, not valid
data).
• Indicates that the camera is in autoTRACK mode. The IR spinners are running
and the camera is attempting to acquire data from the TRP.
