Controls and Indicators

When installing the AJA FS1 chassis, you’ll make media cable connections to a
variety of equipment. After installation, the front panel indicators will be useful in
monitoring what is happening on the system as well as troubleshooting problems
that can occur. Becoming familiar with the FS1 front and rear panels will simplify
installation, setup, and operation of the system. Use of the web browser user
interface and Remote Control Panel option are described in a Chapter 5.

On the following pages are front and rear panel illustrations with notations that
summarize all of the connectors and indicators. Detailed descriptions of each of the
connectors and indicators follow afterward.

Full installation instructions are provided in Chapter 3 later in this manual.

Note:

The AJA FS1 should be plugged into 3-prong 100-240 VAC power before

you make connections to other equipment. The AC cords provide a path to ground
for accidental static discharge to protect system equipment. The FS1 has two fully
independent and redundant power supplies and will operate with one or both AC
power cords plugged into the unit. However, fault-tolerance exists only if both
power supplies are connected and plugged into separate branch circuits. Then if
power is lost on a branch or a supply, the FS1 will continue to operate on the
remaining circuit and power supply.

Warning:

To meet safety regulations for leakage current and to achieve full

redundancy, connect the FS1 dual power supplies to separate branch circuits.
