Remote-i Net
Normal operation steps
The data download operation considered to be normal involves the following sequence of events:
1. after installation of the network cables and connection to the power source, the LED identified as
POWER should light up in green, whenever the
Remote-i Net
is switched on;
2. immediately after the
Remote-i Net
is switched on, the three LEDs will be lit, indicating that the
equipment is attempting to connect to
the local network. After 3 seconds the LEDs identified as
COMMUNICATION and LINE should turn off, and only the POWER will be lit. This indicates
that the
Remote-i Net
is ready to operate on the local network;
3. the user places the
Guardus
on the metal receptacle mounted on the front of the
Remote-i Net
and this carries out a rapid reading of its content. This reading is signaled by a very brief flashing
of LINE;
4. assuming that the data necessary for the download is correctly stored in the
Guardus
, the
Remote-i Net
will respond by lighting up COMMUNICATION in red. This indicator will remain
unaltered during the entire download process, and the user shouldn't remove the
Guardus
from
the metal receptacle as this will interrupt the operation;
5. when the remote computer is connected to the
Remote-i Net
, the
Guardus
will immediately emit
a sound and light signal, indicating that the two parts have been synchronized and download of
data can commence;
6. the download process will proceed for a few seconds and may be accompanied by rapid flashing
of LINE;
7. at the end of the download process, the
Guardus
will again emit a sound and light signal
indicating that everything went well and the
Remote-i Net
will signal this with a color change of
COMMUNICATION from red to green;
8. the user removes the
Guardus
from the metal receptacle and waits for the LED identified as
COMMUNICATION to turn off, indicating the end of the download cycle.
The procedure described above assumes that everything occurred without problems. However, some
difficulties may arise during this process which will be immediately signaled by
Remote-i Net
through a
combined flashing of the COMMUNICATION and LINE LEDs.
In order to understand what
Remote-i Net
is trying to indicate with the light signals, read the section
'Frequently Asked Questions', on page 12.
