Files are Corrupted (Entering Fail-Safe Mode)
If your files become corrupted (for example, during an upload), you can
put the system into Fail-Safe mode by pushing down the F.S. DIP
switch on the back the X75HD unit. All system programs and current
activity will cease.
In Fail-Safe mode, all system functions are disabled except for the
ability to upload new software via FTP. To do this, follow these steps to
transfer new files to your system using CoPilot.
1. Ensure your X75HD system is either connected to the network
using a 10/100Base-T Ethernet cable or directly connected to a PC
using a cross-over cable.
2. Push down the F.S. DIP switch on the back of the unit to put the
X75HD system into Fail-Safe mode.
3. Launch CoPilot on the connected (either remotely or directly) PC.
4. Follow the procedure in your CoPilot User Manual or online help
system for “Updating the Software on a CCS Device.”
5. Return the F.S. DIP switch to the up position, and then reboot your
system.
Note
CCS CoPilot is a
Windows-based software
application provided with your
X75HD system that discovers
devices on your network, and
allows you to configure all
system IP address settings (such
as IP Address, Default Gateway,
Subnet Mask, etc.). The current
release of your X75HD system
only provides limited support
for CoPilot. Contact your Leitch
customer support representative
for more information.
