This section explains the Monarch HDX status LEDs.
LED State Condition
Green Device is powered.
Yellow
Indicates that an error has occurred. This includes
streaming, recording, fan or temperature-related
errors, and/or a physical disconnection of the network
cable. The LED turns off when the error is cleared in
the Command Center (e.g. streaming error) and/or
when the error has been resolved (e.g. tempera-
ture-related error). For information on how to view
and clear errors, see “Monarch HDX errors” on
page 24.
SDI/HDMI Green Indicates which input is in use (HDMI or SDI).
ENCODER
1/2
OFF Indicates that the encoder is not in use.
Blue
(solid)
Indicates that the channel is in streaming mode and
ready to stream. The LED will return to solid blue
when the streaming is stopped.
Blue
(flash)
The LED switches from solid to flashing blue when
you start the streaming process, and will revert to
solid blue when you stop it. The behavior is the same
for RTMP and RTSP.
Blue
(flashing
fast)
The channel is trying to (automatically) reconnect to
a media server.
Red (solid) Indicates that the channel is ready to start recording.
Red (flash)
Indicates that the channel is recording. The LED will
toggle between the two states (flashing and solid red)
when the recording operation is turned on or off.

neither encoder is in Record mode.

Indicates that the port/slot has been selected and that
an encoder is in Record mode.

device (USB device or SD card). Do not remove the
media device when its LED is flashing. Doing so may
result in corrupted video files.
