If theswitch is in the ON position when the smart camera starts, the smart cameralaunches only the essential services required for updating configurationinformation and installing software. The LabVIEW Real-Time engine doesnot launch. Use safe mode to reconfigure the smart camera TCP/IP settings,update firmware, and to install or update the software on the smart camera.If the software on the smart camera is corrupted, start the smart camera insafe mode and update the software. To resume normal operations, move theSAFE MODE switch to the OFF position and reapply power or restart thesmart camera. Refer to Getting Started with the NI 17xx Smart Camera forinformation about updating the software on the smart camera.The STATUS LED flashes green three times when the smart camera is insafe mode. Keep the SAFE MODE switch in the OFF position duringnormal operation.IP RESET SwitchTo clear the NI Smart Camera IP settings, move the IP RESET switch tothe ON position and reapply power or restart the smart camera. Use theIP RESET switch to reset the TCP/IP settings when moving the camerafrom one subnet to another or when the current TCP/IP settings areotherwise invalid.Starting the smart camera with the IP RESET switch in the ON positionresets the IP address to 0.0.0.0. Once you have reset the IP address,you can set up a new network configuration for the smart camera from adevelopment machine on the same subnet, or you can use an Ethernet cableto connect the smart camera directly to the development computer. Refer toGetting Started with the NI 17xx Smart Camera for information aboutassigning an IP address to the smart camera.To resume normal operations, move the IP RESET switch to the OFFposition and reapply power or restart the smart camera.
