4 Front Panel Interface
This chapter describes the front panel controls and indicators of R/2.
A column of four LEDs is located directly to the left of the main LCD. The top LED illuminates when the system is operating. The others are not currently implemented.
The main LCD provides unit status and configuration. If this LCD fails to display the Z/IPStream R/2 splash screen at startup, or remains blank during operation, please contact technical support.
A six button navigation cluster is used for initial IP address configuration and navigating the front panel LCD. The controls are relatively self explanatory. Up and down will increment or decrement values, or scroll between parameter settings. Left and right will move between digits in IP address entry, or move between screens on the front panel. The red “X” button will cancel an entry, the green “” (OK button) will confirm the current setting or select a parameter for modification.
A set of five LEDs next to the power and reset buttons indicates system status.
Used for alert indication or system identification.
Solid red: The system has overheated. This may be caused by reduced airflow or high ambient temperature in the rack. Ensure there is nothing obstructing the front or back of the unit and that the temperature in the rack is normal.
Blinking red (1 second intervals): Fan failure. Contact technical support.
Blinking red (1/4 second intervals): Power supply failure. Check for a failed power supply, contact technical support.
Blue (solid or blinking): Local or remote Unit ID function—Not currently implemented.
Indicates NIC 2 link and activity. Flashes during activity. This LED will remain dark if NIC 2 is not connected.
Indicates NIC 1 link and activity. Flashes during activity. This LED will remain dark if NIC 1 is not connected.
Indicates activity of the internal Solid State Drive. Flashes intermittently during normal operation.
This is the main system power LED and will illuminate whenever the system is powered up.
Performs a “hard” reset on R/2 to reboot. Should not be used during normal operation, but can be used if the R/2 becomes unresponsive for some reason. Should this occur, contact technical support.
Performs an orderly power up or shut down. A slight delay before shut down after pressing this button is normal. The SSD indicator will flash rapidly for a short period of time during shut down.
This port is used for software upgrades, as well as factory configuration and troubleshooting. Contact technical support for additional information.
