6.1
Fault Finding Using the Camera LED
When the power supply to the camera is switched on, the LED on the back of the camera will
become orange colored for several seconds as the microprocessor in the camera boots up. If
bootup is successful, the LED will then remain orange continuously.
Once bootup is complete, the camera performs a continuous series of self checks. If an error
condition is detected, the LED will begin to blink between green and orange. The number of blinks
indicate the detected error (see Table 6-1). If several error states are present, the LED outputs the
error codes in succession.
If the status LED on the back of the camera is not lit, it means that power to the camera is not
present or is less than 10.8 Volts.
