Power Indicator Codes

The power supplies have indicators that show whether power is present or

whether a power fault has occurred.

• Not lit — AC power is not connected.
• Green — In standby mode, a green light indicates that a valid AC source is

connected to the power supply and that the power supply is operational.

When the system is on, a green light also indicates that the power supply is

providing DC power to the system.

• Amber — Indicates a problem with the power supply.
• Alternating green and amber — When hot-adding a power supply, this

indicates that the power supply is mismatched with the other power

supply (a high output power supply and an energy smart power supply are

installed in the same system). Replace the power supply that has the

flashing indicator with a power supply that matches the capacity of the

other installed power supply.

CAUTION:

When correcting a power supply mismatch, replace only the power

supply with the flashing indicator. Swapping the opposite power supply to make a
matched pair can result in an error condition and unexpected system shutdown. To
change from a High Output configuration to an Energy Smart configuration or vice
versa, you must power down the system.
