Power On Self Test (POST)
After being powered on, the RealPresence Group systems automatically perform system health checks before the systems are initialized. This process is known as a power on self test, or POST. The status of the POST sequence is displayed with the LED indicator light on the front of the device, or in the case of the RealPresence Group 700 system, in the text field display on the front of the system. All test results are logged in the system’s memory. For more information about what the colors of the indicator lights mean, refer to the Administrator’s Guide for Polycom RealPresence Group Series.
When the POST sequence completes with no fatal errors, the RealPresence Group system starts normally.
Warning errors that occur on the RealPresence Group system during POST can be found under System > Status > Active Alerts. For more details, use your remote control to select More Information.
