That is showing an OOB (Out Of Box) screen. That means your system has reverted to the factory restore software. It also shows no IP connection. Once the IP connection is up you can use the web UI to go through the OOB.

If you can get the camera working, is it powered from the codec or using a separate power supply, then you can do the OOB from the embedded UI.

You should follow the prompts and then reload the profile and directory backups and make sure it is up to date on the current software load (3.1.4).

You should get the logs from the system and call your service provider and open a ticket with them to see what was the cause, if it can be determined.

You should get the logs prior to loading the new software.

The camera is the only source of IR receiver on the HDX 6000, 7000 and 8000. You should call Polycom service for futher assistance.

Hello NextjumpRS,

welcome to the Polycom Community.

Being out of warranty simply means you are no longer entitled to free support. This is the same with a car being out of warranty.

The remote no longer working for the HDX may be simply the remote being setup to a different channel. You can check this against the HDX admin Guide.

In order to determine why the unit is not requesting a IP address or it seems it is not doing so you would need to setup a spanned network port and monitor the connectivity.

Simply contact our support team or your Polycom reseller and they will be able to explain your options.

Please ensure to provide some feedback if this reply has helped you so other users can profit from your experience.

Best Regards
