Possible Causes and Remedies
Loose power cable: Verify that the power cable is fully inserted into the unit's
power connector and that the power supply's connector collar is properly
threaded onto the ScaleOR's power connector.
Defective power supply: Replace the power supply.
Wall socket: Some wall sockets have on / off switches built in. If the socket you
are using has a built in switch, verify that is in the on position.
Mitigation:
Bypass the ScaleOR by connecting the output of the video source directly to a
monitor.
Turn the ScaleOR off, then connect its
monitor. Turn the ScaleOR
approximately 10 seconds after the ScaleOR is turned on. Turn the ScaleOR off,
then connect its SDI output port to the monitor and repeat the test. If your
ScaleOR has a Fiber Optic
Optic output port to the monitor and repeat the test.
If the ScaleOR's power button's blue ring is flashing once per second, then the
unit is not detecting a video signal. Verify that an input signal is connected to
the unit's input. If there is a connection try replacing the video cable. If video
appears, then the cable is bad. If video does not appear, then connect the unit
to a different video source. If video appears, then the previous video source is
turned off, or defective. If video still does not appear, then the ScaleOR's Input
module may be defective, or not properly seated. Try reseating the input
module. If that doesn't clear the problem then the input module is defective.
If you determine that the input module is defective, please contact customer
service for assistance.
Mitigation:
If possible, connect the video source directly to the video display.
