Powering on the system

Note the following before powering on the system:

The power socket should be installed near the equipment and should be easily accessible.

If the outlet is not rated 115/120V, stop and get the appropriate cable for the outlet.

If your installation requires a different power cord than that supplied with the device, make
sure you obtain 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.

After you complete the physical installation of the system, you can power on the system.

1. Ensure that all power supplies are fully and properly inserted and all empty power supply slots

are covered.

CAUTION

Never leave tools inside the device.

2. For DC supplies, connect the power source to the wires to activate the circuit.

3. For AC supplies:

Remove the power cord from the shipping package.

Attach the AC power cable to the AC connector on the rear panel and secure with retaining
bale, as shown in
