INSTALLATION

NOTE

To turn on your SB3500, simply plug it in. It is
not necessary to unplug it when not in use.

Powering Up the First Time

You must allow 5 to 30 minutes to power up the first time because the
SB3500 must find and lock on the appropriate channels for communications.

1

Be sure that your computer is on and that the SB3500 is unplugged.

2

Plug in the AC power cord for the external UPS or power brick.
Notice that the lights on the front panel cycle through this sequence:

Power flashes during a self-test. When the self-test is
successfully complete, the light is solid green.

Receive flashes while the SB3500 scans for the downstream
channel. When the downstream channel is locked, the light is
solid green.

Send flashes while the SB3500 scans for the upstream channel.
When the upstream channel is locked, the LED is solid green.

Online flashes while the SB3500 is obtaining configuration
information. When the configuration information is obtained,
the LED is solid green.

During normal operation, the Power, Receive, Send, and Online lights are on
and the Activity light flashes.
