Powering the System

The CopperHead 3050 Transceiver System Base Station and the CopperHead 3050
Transceiver System Camera Unit each have a power up routine which tests the equipment
and performs a system diagnostic.

To power the CopperHead 3050 Transceiver System Base Station:

1 Turn on the Base Station Power Mains Switch located at the rear left (when facing the

back of the Base Station-- #3 on the overall diagram, see

Base Station Connectors

on

page 67). This switch is only on Base Station units with internal power. The front panel
power light will come on and be Red until the next step.

2 Turn on the Front Panel Power Switch located at the front right(#15 on the overall

diagram -- see

Base Station Connectors

on page 67). The power monitor indicator turns

from Red to Green.

3 The four-character display indicates TEST and all front panel LEDs turn, Red, then

Green, then orange, then off.

4 The LED color test is followed by REV and the revision of the display microcontroller

firmware.

5 The REV indication is followed by miranda.com scrolling across the four-character

display.

If there's no scrolling, please contact Grass Valley, a Belden Brand support for assistance
(see

Contact Us

on page 65).

6 The scroll is followed by a three-second pause which synchronizes all the

microcontrollers in the Base Station.

7 The front panel will cycle through the diagnostics displays (see

Using Digital Displays

on page 54).

8 After the three-second pause, all the front panel displays update with current status. If

the Camera Unit is not powered on the camera related status lights will show Red.

To power the CopperHead 3050 Transceiver System Camera Unit:

1 Turn on the Camera Unit Power Switch.

2 Turn on the Camera Power and also any peripheral equipment connected to the

camera or the CopperHead 3050 Transceiver System Camera Unit such as monitors and
microphones.

3 On Power-On, the four-character display indicates the current Revision Version (REVA).

Your unit will display the current Revision Version, followed by the Fiber Link strength
(a typical display for Fiber Link strenth is -8 to -13 which indicates Fiber link strength of
from -8 to -13 dBm).

Both the Camera Unit and the Base Station have a digital display selector button which
allows multiple functions for the digital display. These functions are described in

Measuring

Fiber Optic Signal Strength
