AXIS 2401 Front Panel

Status Indicator

The multi-colored status indicator defines the operational status of the server, as described below:

•green - the indicator flashes briefly and momentarily displays orange during the start-up and self-test routines; the indicator then displays green to indicate a healthy unit sta- tus.

•red - the indicator will display red only if a problem with the AXIS 2401 has occurred

•orange - flashes orange when reset- ting the factory default settings.

Network Indicator

After completion of the startup and self test routines, the multi-colored Network Indica- tor flashes independently, as follows:

•yellow - indicating network activity on a 10Mbps Ethernet network

•green - indicating network activity on a 100Mbps Fast Ethernet network

•red - indicating no physical connection to the network.

DIP Switch

A single line termination for the supported video output. Units are shipped with the line termination enabled; that is, with the DIP switch set in the down-position. If the AXIS 2401 is to be con- nected in parallel with other equipment, disable the input ter- mination by turning the corre- sponding DIP switch to the up-position (OFF). Failure to do so can cause the picture quality to be impaired.

Power Indicator

The Power indicator is normally lit while power is applied. If it is not lit, or it flashes, there is a problem with the AXIS 2401 external power source.

Video Input

Coaxial BNC connector support- ing a single video source. The physical connection is made using RG59, 75 Ohm coax video cable; with a recommended maximum length of 800 feet (250 meters).

Control Button This button is recessed within the product casing. Using a suitably pointed object, press this button to restore the factory default settings. For further infor- mation, refer to Network Settings, on page 20.

Serial Number

Video Output

A single video loopthrough (VIDEO OUT) connected in parallel with VIDEO IN and terminated with a coax/BNC connector. Allows direct connec- tion of an external monitor. Set dipswitch to OFF when in use.
