AXIS 2400/2401
Administration Manual Physical Description
9
DIP Switches -
DIP switches provide the line termination for each supported video input. All
units are shipped with the line termination enabled for each supported video input; that is, with the
DIP switches set in the down-position.
If the AXIS 2400/2401 is to be connected in parallel with other equipment, disable the input
termination by turning the corresponding DIP switch to the up-position (OFF). Failure to do this
can cause the picture quality to be impaired.
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 status.
• red - the indicator will display red only if a problem with the AXIS 2400/2401 has occurred.
Refer to Appendix A - Troubleshooting.
Note: The Status indicator also displays orange when setting the factory default settings, as described in
Reinstating the Factor y Default Settings, on page 25.
Network Indicator - After completion of the startup and self test routines, the multi-colored
Network Indicator 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.
Power Indicator - The Power indicator is normally lit while power is applied. If it is not lit, or it
flashes, there is problem with the AXIS 2400/2401 external power source.
Control Button - Located centrally between the supported video input connectors on the AXIS
2400, and to the left of the loop-through video output on the AXIS 2401; this button is recessed
within the product casing. Using a suitably pointed object, you press this button to restore the
factory default settings, as described in Reinstating the Factory Default Settings, on page 25.
Serial Number - Located on the underside label of the AXIS 2400/2401, the serial number is
identical to the Ethernet address of the unit.
