Camera Indicator Light Descriptions

Percipio cameras employ diverse indicator light configurations, including combinations such as PWR/ETH/ACT/BSY, PWR/ETH/ACT, STAT/ETH/ACT/BSY, STAT/ETH/ACT, and single indicator light. The indicator lights visually indicate different camera operating states through various colors and blinking patterns.

Camera initialization Process

Upon power-up, the camera requires time to initialize. During this process, the PWR light, STAT light, or single indicator light remains constantly on.

Once initialization completes, please refer to the appropriate status descriptions based on your camera’s specific indicator light configuration.
