M400 System Startup
System Startup and Shutdown
The M400 camera does not have an on/off switch. Instead, its power state is controlled by the
JCU II. Generally, the camera is never completely off but in a Park mode or standby state waiting
for a “wake” command from the JCU II.
Typically, the M400 system is connected to power through a circuit breaker, which functions as the
primary on/off switch for the system. Should it be necessary for some reason to completely shut
down the system, the circuit breaker is used. In normal operation, however, the camera will have
power and will be in one of four states or modes:
• Bootup, or powering on
• Powered on and fully functional
• Park mode, powered on with video turned off
• Standby, a low-power state waiting for a wake command
Park Mode
When the system is in Park mode, the camera does not generate a live video signal. After the
bootup is complete or when done using the system, Park the camera from the OSD menu to keep
the system ready to use at a moments notice.
The Bootup Process
The bootup process is slightly different depending on whether the system had been completely
turned off or is being wakened from a standby state. Most of what happens, however, is the same.
Powering the Camera
During bootup, a series of screens are shown as various components are activated. How the
screen looks will vary depending on the particular configuration settings of your installation. In
general, the following sequence occurs:
1. If starting from a full shutdown, make sure the monitor is turned on, then power on the system.
2. The FLIR splash screen is shown, then live video with a counter showing boot progress.
3. When the bootup is complete (about 4 minutes), the monitor shows icons, live video, and the
OSD menus are enabled.
