we lost the password...
did a factory reset...
now after booting the blue light stays on for about 4 mins and then begins to flash
1 sec on
1 sec off
--------------------
on same system the camera is connected properly but does not 'turn on'
thanks so much
How log did you leave the HDX flashing blue before concluding it wasn't working & shutting it down?
It could be re-writing its OS from local storage which may take 10-15mins.
i forgot to add that the system was working...before we hit the factory reset button...
What are the 1st 6 digits of the 14 digit S#. That'll give me a clue to age, just to eliminate the outside possibility that the HDX8000 was not originally H/W Rev. B and has been subsiquently hardware upgraded beyond the capabilities of the factory partition s/w.
HDX8000 h/w rev B started shipping in Jan 2009 so you're looking for a S# starting 8x0901 upwards. the closer you get to 8x0901 the higher the chance that it wasn't Rev B when shipped. All HDX8000 shipped after 8x0904 should be Rev B.
If not that I'd try a full factory reset with the reset in before powering up. (Oh! and try & get a component monitor onto the device, if only until you can access Admin to change it to DVI or other.
