Status Led Codes - Genie M640 User Manual

Status LED Codes

The camera is equipped with a LED to display the operational status of the camera. When more than one condition
is active, the LED color indicates the condition with the highest priority (such as an acquisition in progress has more
priority than a valid IP address assignment). The following table summarizes the LED states and corresponding
camera status.
LED State

Steady Red
Slow Flashing Red
Fast Flashing Red

Once the Genie has its RJ45 connected to a network, the Status LED will turn to steady blue when the IP address is
assigned. Only at this time will it be possible by the GigE Server or any application to communicate with the
camera.
Note: Even if the Genie has obtained an IP address, it might be on a different subnet than the NIC it is attached to.
Therefore, if the Genie LED is blue but an application such as CamExpert can not see it, this indicates a network
configuration problem.
