DANGER

If the installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the device,
make sure you use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the
regulations for power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the power
cord can be used safely with the device.

amber or OFF, the power supply is not providing power to the chassis components. The ALM LED
should be OFF.
