6.0 Troubleshooting
Below is a listing of several problems that may arise during the installation & operation of the modules. If
you are having difficulty installing or operating the modules please refer to this list below.
Problem
:
Module does not fit in chassis slots
Action:
Check module orientation. Meridian “Globe” must be oriented on the top left hand side
of the module
Make sure the card guides in the chassis are aligned with the extrusion on the module
Problem
:
Card power LED does not light when power to the module/subrack is applied or power
indicator turns on and off
Action
:
Check power supply to ensure that it is plugged in and turned on. If flashing continues,
move module to another chassis or location in the same chassis, if available.
Problem
:
No video at output of module
Action
:
Check to ensure that the video channel-specific LEDs are on (Green). Also, check to
ensure that the optical LEDs are ON. If no video is still present, check to ensure that the
monitor is ON and the video cable is connected to the correct video port on the Rx
module.
Problem
:
Video image is dark
Action
:
Check the iris control on the camera to ensure that it is open to the proper amount for the
conditions
Problem
:
Video image is too bright and appears overexposed
Action
:
Check the Video overload indicator on the Rx module. If it is Red, the video signal level
is too high and the CCTV iris should be checked to ensure that it is open properly for the
conditions.
Problem:
No Data
Action:
Check the data input status indicator light #1 on the transmit module to ensure it is on
(indicating a data input signal). Also check the data output status indicator light #2 on
the corresponding receiver module to ensure that the signal is being transmitted and
received. If not, please check the data input/output and fiber connections.
If the problem still persists after reviewing the above items, please contact Meridian technical
support (516-285-1000).
