6.1 Fault Finding Using the Camera LED
During bootup, the camera loads firmware and performs initial self checks. Once bootup is
complete, the camera performs a continuous series of self checks. If an error condition is
detected, the status LED on the back of the camera will begin to blink. The number of blinks
indicate the detected error as shown in Table 6-1.
If several error states are present, the LED outputs the error code that has the highest priority.
To get more information about the camera’s current condition, you can check the camera status
as described in Section 3.14.
LED Description Priority
LED is solid green
for several seconds,
blinks orange and
then becomes solid
orange
This is the normal LED sequence at power on or after a camera
reset.
-
Solid orange
The camera has power and is OK. -
LED blinks with
gradually increas-
ing frequency
Indicates that the camera is busy performing a normal operation
such as generating shading tables. When the operation is complete,
the blinking stops.
-
Continuous red
blinking
An overtemperature or an overvoltage condition has been detected.
The blinking will stop after the temperature or voltage has returned
to normal and the camera is reset or powered off and back on.
1
(highest)
Continuous fast
orange blinking
General error.
Please contact Basler support.
2
Continuous slow
orange blinking
One of the following errors is present:
• No FPGA firmware is available.
• Firmware available but error when booting the FPGA.
Please contact Basler support.
