There is no power switch on the encoder. The power is automatically on when the unit is plugged in.
Warning
When using the AC/DC power adapter, the power cord is the main disconnect device. Ensure that the socket-outlet is located/installed near the equipment and is easily accessible.
ATTENTION Quand on utilise l'adaptateur AC à DC, le cordon d'alimentation est utilisé comme interrupteur général. La prise de courant doit être située ou installée à proximité de l'équipement et être facile d'accès.
- (As shown under Connect to the Network and Audio/Video Sources) Insert the Power/Audio/Serial breakout cable connector into the encoder's the encoder's power input port (DC In & I/O). Both AC and DC power cables (shown following) are shipped as part of the Evaluation Kit (#S-MX1E-R-SDI1-DK/#S-MX1E-R-V2-SDI1-DK).
- Make sure the connector is properly inserted and locked to avoid intermittent power problems.
- Connect the power cable to a +5V power source. (The AC PSU can be used to convert from 120V AC to 5VDC ±.25V.)
The Status LED next to the video input will start blinking green, indicating that the encoder is booting up. - Wait until the Status LED stays solid green, indicating that the encoder is ready for operation.
