Power-up Boot Sequence

When power is applied to an EKKO Projector adapter, the following boot sequence takes place:
•
The screen will clear to black.
•
The status LEDs will flash alternately. At this point the adapter is initialising the network interface.
•
After approximately 3 seconds the status LEDs will go off and the Network Link indicator will
illuminate.
From now on, any network traffic to the adapter will cause the Network Activity indicator to flash.
•
The adapter's MAC address will be displayed at the top of the screen.
•
After a short delay the Idle Status indicator will light to show that the device has obtained an IP
address and is awaiting commands.
•
When a client connects to the adapter, the Client Status indicator will light.
