CHAPTER 7: OPERATION OF EMERALD SE SYSTEM
Operating a workstation through the Emerald SE system is no different than working directly connected to a PC desktop.
All peripherals operate as if directly connected, even though the workstation is located at a distance.
7.1 LED IDENTIFICATION
Front panel
There is one button on the front panel of an Emerald SE unit. This button is disabled.
NOTE: The unit powers on automatically when plugged in and must be turned off at the power source.
Rear panel
Two LEDs are built into the RJ-45 connectors on the Emerald SE Receiver, Manager and Transmitter. The definition of the operation
of these LEDs is shown in Table 7-1.

7.2 ACCESSING THE SYSTEM
A connection is established using the OSD on an Emerald SE Receiver or Boxilla Manager. Once you are connected, a series
of messages will be displayed on the screen to inform you of the progress of the connection. You will be able to interact with the
remote workstation as if it were located at your desk.
NOTE: If the remote workstation is powered off, the Emerald SE system will display a “black” screen for video when a connection
is made.
