Power and Status Indicators

Power 1—Shows that the FS1 #1 power supply is connected to AC mains power via

its power cord and is operational. Both the Power 1 and Power 2 LEDs must be
lit to ensure redundant power is available.

Power 2—Shows that the FS1 #2 power supply is connected to AC mains power via

its power cord and is operational.

Identify and ID—These two LEDs (one on the front panel and one on the rear) will

blink when directed to do so via the FS1’s Web browser interface Identify
button. This action is useful for identifying which FS1 you’re controlling when
there are multiple FS1 units in a machine room being controlled by a laptop or
computer. In the browser, simply click Identify and then watch for one of the
FS1s Identify LEDs to blink. The Identify LED on the front panel and ID LED
on the rear panel perform the exact same function. No matter which side of a
rack you’re facing, you’ll be able to see one of the LEDs.

Alarm—If This LED is illuminated, press the Status button to see a description of

the alarm event detected.

The Alarm LED may be lit because of a hardware failure, because of video
incompatibilities, or because of genlock loss. (Any of these conditions may be
filtered out using the Alarm Filters parameters.)

Note:

Only having one power cord connected to the FS1 will cause the alarm

LED to light—this may be filtered with the Alarm Filters parameters.

Video incompatibilities may be deduced from the “Alarm Status” screen. When the
Alarm LED is lit, press the front panel Status button to go directly to the “Alarm
Status” screen.

Video incompatibilities that the FS1 may detect include:

Reference signal events that the FS1 may detect include:
