BrightEye 81 Front Panel
Status Indicators
• Input – The incoming format (Dual Link, 3G, HD, or SD) will Illuminate green.
BrightEye 81 supports all of the 3G, HD and SD standards listed in the chart in the "Using the
BrightEye Control Application” section, beginning on page 12. The video format is auto detected.
• HDMI – The HDMI LED will indicate cable connection and status as follows:
Green – The HDMI LED will illuminate green when an HDMI cable is connected to a monitor
and the monitor reports back that it supports the incoming format.
Orange – The HDMI LED will illuminate orange when an HDMI cable is connected to a monitor
and the monitor reports back that it does not support the incoming format.
Note: Because many monitors do not report back format support fully or accurately,
BrightEye 81 will often function properly when the HDMI LED illuminates orange.
Unlit – If the HDMI LED is not illuminated check the cabling between BrightEye 81 and
the monitor.
• Pwr (Power) – The power indicator illuminates green when the BrightEye unit has power and
the internal voltage regulator is functioning correctly.
