Installation Verification
To verify that your Profile system has been correctly installed, perform the following:
1. From the VdrPanel application, record a clip which contains both audio and video
(not Black).
2. Play back the clip.
If you get any errors, check the following:
• If you have Black with the audio, recheck the Video I/O crosspoint set up in VdrPanel.
(Refer to the Profile Family User Manual.) Make any necessary changes and repeat
Steps 1 and 2 above.
• If you have the video, but have an audio problem, recheck your Audio I/O
configuration through Configuration Manager. Also, recheck the audio assignments
in VdrPanel application. (Refer to the Profile Family User Manual.) Make any
necessary changes and repeat Steps 1 and 2 above.
• For other errors, see “Initial Power On Checks”.
• If errors persist, check the Profile Error Log and contact your Grass Valley Group
representative. (See the Profile Family User Manual, “Using Profile Utilities” to
access the Profile Error Log.)
Initial Power On Checks
Grass Valley Group has made every effort to insure that your Profile system was in
perfect operating condition before it left the factory. However, unforeseeable
problems can occur. The discussion below applies to initial installation only. See the
Profile Video File Server Service Manual for any post-installation problems.
NOTE: Please take notes of trouble indications and what you do in attempting to
correct any problem. Doing so will assist Customer Support and Field Service
personnel in the event additional action is required.
If you have a problem with the initial Profile system power On:
• First check all connections and power switches.
• Check the status of the Profile front panel LED indicators.
If the large green LED just to the left of center is not lit, replace the power cord and
try again. If this problem still exists, contact your Grass Valley Group representative.
If one or more of the eight green Disk Activity LEDs remains lit or stays lit for a long
time, power the Profile system Off and then back On again. If this problem still exists,
power the Profile system Off and contact your Grass Valley Group representative.
If the
OVERTEMP
and/or the
FAN FAULT
red LED is On, immediately power the
Profile system Off and contact your Grass Valley Group representative.
• Check to see if your system includes one or more disk based external storage devices.
If so, you must use the Profile Disk Utility to create a file system on these disks at
initial installation. (See the Profile Disk Utility discussion in the Profile Family User
Manual.)
