Description

1

Power LED

 

When the unit is powered on, the power LED will be lit continuously. If the

 

 

 

power LED is flashing, there is a problem with the CPU. Contact Technical

 

 

 

Support at 724-746-5500 or info@blackbox.com.

2

Link LED

 

The Link LED indicates network connectivity. It lights when a network is

 

 

 

connected to the ServSensor V4E Lite.

3

Mic

 

The mic is a small hole for access to the internal microphone. Use it as a

 

 

 

sound sensor (or use an external mic).

4

SD card slot

 

SD card (not included) installs here.

5

Activity LED

 

The Activity LED flashes when network traffic is sent to or received by the

 

 

 

ServSensor V4E Lite.

6

Status/Online LEDs 1–8

The Status/Online LEDs are numbered 1–8. They indicate the connectivity

 

 

 

status of the sensors connected to each port. You can also use these LEDs to

 

 

 

indicate system status during various operations.

Additionally, the LEDs can indicate the progress of an upgrade. The red LEDs move from left to right to indicate activity, and all the green LEDs indicate overall progress of the upgrade. When all the red lights are off and the green are on, the upgrade/recovery process is complete.

These lights also indicate if the unit is operating in safe mode. This is when the unit loads the operating system (OS) with a minimal set of drivers. If your device enters safe mode after rebooting, contact Black Box Technical Support at 724-746-5500 or info@blackbox.com.

The unit may enter recovery mode if a firmware upgrade is incomplete. In this case, the unit displays a continuously lit row of red LEDs. If this happens, contact Black Box Technical Support at 724-746-5500 or info@blackbox.com.
