Status

The Status LED, the first light on the left, cycles through its power-on sequence as the VR-N100U boots up. It starts out solid red during self-test. Solid amber indicates the server is booting the OS and the application. Solid green indicates the VR-N100U has successfully powered on and dynamically acquired an IP address. The Status light will remain solid green throughout normal operation. If the Status light slowly blinks amber, VR- N100U has failed to dynamically acquire an IP address. You must simply use one of the four methods outlined in the manual to manually acquire an IP address. When VR-N100U is in the process of updating or reflashing the VR-N100U firmware, the Status LED will flash quickly between green and amber. Under no circumstances should the process be cancelled or power be removed from the unit during the reflash. A partial or terminated operation may result in a dysfunctional unit.

Network

The Network Activity LED flashes green when there is network traffic from an external source on LAN1, the network backbone. When the Network LED flashes amber, it means the VR-N100U is transmitting video from the cameras and/or being accessed over the network.

NOTE: Only LAN1’s Network LED is available because the LCD Module was originally designed with the previous generation server board which utilized only a single network connection.
