Area C - Signal/Data Indicators

Fig. 4-4: Signal/Data Indicators

The CopperHead 3404 Camera Unit Indicator Panel has a series of LED displays that monitor
the various signal paths between the Camera Unit and the Base Station.

For signals that remain constant, such as time code and video, the LED remains on as a
steady Green. For signals that fluctuate, such as audio, the LED will reflect the varying signal
activity. If the LED is off, either the signal has been lost or it is not in use.

The LED indicators on the left side of the panel indicate signal paths from the Base Station
to the Camera Unit. Right side LEDs indicate signal paths from the Camera Unit to the Base
Station.
