Note on Disk LEDs Activity
When starting from a clean disk array (after a “Clear Video Disks” from
the EVS maintenance menu), the XS server is recording first on RAID
#0 until this one is full, then on RAID #1 and finally on RAID #2. It is
therefore normal to see activity only on 5, 10 or 15 disks depending on
how much material (clips and record trains) is stored on the server.
LEDs at the back of the XT-HDX rack
Status LED blinking green Device operational
Error LED blinking red Error writing or reading
The two other LEDs are not used yet.
How to replace a Disk
Before replacing a disk, ensure that the software application has disconnected and
stopped the disk. In this case, the disk LED is blinking slowly red with a 4-second
cycle.
1. When the disk is stopped, disconnect the canister.
2. Replace the disk in the canister.
3. Put the canister back sliding it to the bottom of the frame.
The LED on the canister should first blink rapidly red with a 3-second cycle while
the disk is being mounted. Then, it should blink green.
