Powering the System
The CopperHead 3400 Base Station and the CopperHead 3400 Camera Unit each have a
power up routine which tests the equipment and performs a system diagnostic.
To power the CopperHead 3400 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. 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). 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 83).
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 the Digital
Displays on page 69.
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 3400 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 3400 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
A Brief
Guide to Measurement of Fiber Optic Signal Strength on page 69.
