1
Reset button
(hole)
Resets Static IP address. Insert pin into hole for 5 seconds
to reset.
2
Power Bi-color
LED
Green
indicates the system has adequate power and is
operating normally.
Red
indicates the system is in standby mode. In standby
most of the Controller circuitry is powered down.
Off
indicates that the system is getting no power.
3
Status Bi-color
LED
Green
indicates the Host has established communications
with the embedded system.
Green flashing
indicates the embedded system is ready
(running with DHCP IP address), but the Host has not
established communications with the embedded system.
Off
indicates the embedded processor is resetting or is
powered up; and is booting the embedded firmware.
Red
indicates the Host has determined the firmware needs
to be updated, but a problem occurred during the process
that will initiate a reset.
Red flashing
indicates the embedded firmware is running,
but has not received a DHCP IP Address.
Amber
indicates the Host is currently updating the
embedded firmware.
Amber
flashing
indicates the embedded system has a valid
link-local IP Address and is waiting to connect to the Host.
Hardware Failure
If the Controller has a hardware failure, the Status LED
indication will be interrupted every 3 seconds with a solid
red indication. For example, if the LED is flashing green
when a hardware failure occurs, the LED will flash green,
solid red, etc in 3 second intervals.
4
RS-232 LED
Green
indicates RS-232 serial port data activity.
Off
indicates no RS-232 serial port activity.
5
GPIO LED
Green
indicates GPIO port signal activity.
Off
indicates no GPIO port activity.
6
On/Off button
(hole)
Insert pin into hole for about 5 seconds to place in standby
mode. The Power LED turns red. Insert the pin again for
about 1 second to take system out of standby mode. The
I/O
power switch on the back of Controller must be On (
I
) to
enable this function. To turn the power off for the entire
system, use the switch on the rear panel.
7
HDMI LED
Green
indicates the external host is connected to the
Host HDMI port.
Off
indicates the external host is not connected to the
Host HDMI port.
8
IR LED
Green
indicates IR port signal activity.
Off
indicates no IR port activity.

Ethernet
8-pin RJ-45 10/100 Base-T, auto-negotiating port with Link/
Activity LEDs:
See items 8 and 9 for LED operation.
2
RS-232/422/485
8-pin RJ-45 female: Used to transmit and receive serial
binary data from devices.
Ports 1 & 2 support CTS/RTS.
4
GPIO Input
When configured as an input, the port detects a voltage
present and can safely detect the presence of a voltage of
0-30V DC with a threshold of approximately 2.4V DC.
5
GPIO Output
When configured as an output, the port outputs a voltage
below 12V DC 150mA. Combined maximum current for all
GPIO outputs is 550mA and will shut down if an over-current
condition is detected.

Host HDMI
19-pin type A HDMI female digital video/audio input:
Supports HDMI, DVI/D (requires adapter-not included)
Limited to 185 MHz pixel clock. Used for receiving up to 4
PCM streams (iTunes®) from a Pro Host. This is not
available on the Smart Host.

Fuse
100-240V, 2.5A—Fast acting fuse. This is field-replaceable.
8
Link/Activity LED
Green
indicates an Ethernet link has been established.
Green Flashing
indicates Ethernet activity.
Off
indicates an Ethernet link has not been established.
9
Ethernet Speed LED
Yellow
indicates an Ethernet connection speed of 100 Mbps.
Off indicates an Ethernet connection speed of 10 Mbps.
