Indicators

The ViewStation system and its network interface modules use indicator lights to provide status information. The following tables give the meanings of each indicator.

System Lights

The ViewStation EX and ViewStation FX systems have a two-color light below the camera. When the light is green, it provides system status information. When it is amber, it provides in-call information. The VS4000 system has two lights on the front panel, In Call (amber) and Status (green).

Network Line Check Icons

When you start the system, the main screen displays network line check indicators for IP or ISDN lines or both, depending on how the system is configured. Indicators for lines that are active point up and are green; those for inactive lines are red and point down. The figure at left shows a system with a single ISDN channel that is not available, and an IP connection that is active.

Systems that use a Quad BRI network interface module will show up to four ISDN network line indicators; one for each BRI channel. All BRI network line indicators should be green and point up; if they do not, either there is a problem with your BRI network, or there is a problem with the Quad BRI network interface module.
