Powering On the Archive Engine (Generation 1)
Once the Media Libraries are powered on, and the LCDs display a message similar to
“PowerFile Archive Library,” power on the Archive Engine (Generation 1) by pressing the
power button located on the back of the chassis. It will take the Archive Engine 3-5 minutes to
discover and initialize all external devices.
Archive Engine (Generation 1) Power Button and Alarm Button
There are two power supplies in the Archive Engine. It is important to connect both power
supplies. It is recommended that each of the power supplies be attached to a separate UPS with
built in surge protection and line conditioning.
In the event that one of the internal power supplies is accidentally disconnected, an alarm will
sound. The alarm reset button will stop the alarm from sounding once you have reconnected the
internal power supply. If an intermittent beeping continues, you may have to power down the
system and power it up again in the correct sequence. You must unplug the system before
servicing.
