Blade LCD Display
Each blade has an 8x1 character, mini LCD on the faceplate panel that displays eight
characters at a time and scrolls through informational messages. During boot and POST
processing, the LCD will display appropriate messages. Once the encoder is running
normally, the encoder will cycle through the IP address and various other messages for five
seconds each.

Installation
Unpacking and Inspection
Before you do anything else, open the box and inspect the components to make sure you
received everything you ordered. Each shipment comes with the components shown in
Table 12. If anything is missing or damaged, contact VBrick or your reseller at once.
Otherwise install the shelf in a standard 19 in. EIA rack mount chassis.

Blade is good.
Yellow
Warning
Blade in warning mode. This can include a DHCP failure, a
video input problem, a temperature problem, or an encoder
in limited run mode.
Red
Failure
Blade in failure mode. This can include a POST failure, a
hardware failure, or a hardware mismatch.
Note Since the encoder blades are removed from the front, VBrick rack mount units can be
mounted back-to-back (on the same shelf) without consuming additional vertical rack
space. This effectively doubles the density in installations where rack space is an issue.
