    • LEDs on the Frame, 8900NET module, and individual frame media modules, • Web browser status reporting for each frame component, and • SNMP traps, captured by Grass Valley’s NetCentral or another SNMP Manager Application. Note SNMP trap information is only available when an SNMP Agent has been installed and configured.

  • Page 107: Led Reporting

    When SNMP Agent software is installed on the 8900NET module, enabled status reports are sent to an SNMP Manager such as the Grass Valley’s NetCentral application. Status reporting for the frame is enabled or disabled with the configuration DIP switches on the 8900NET module.

  • Page 108: Service

    If power has been cut off to module, remove the module and replace it in the frame to reset. If the problem persists contact Grass Valley Customer Service.
