AC Power Module

Your system can operate with an AC module or an integrated redundant AC power module. The AC module is used when a redundant AC power source is not
required. The integrated redundant AC power module enables your system to use two AC inputs. Your system can operate on either of these inputs and
automatically switches from a failing AC power source. Both of these modules are removed and replaced using the same procedure.

Removing the AC Power Module

1.

 

Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect the system from the electrical outlet.

2.

 

Loosen the thumbscrew that secures the AC power module to the chassis.

3.

NOTICE:

The power supplies are hot-pluggable. The system requires two power supplies to be installed for the system to operate normally. The system

is in the redundant mode when all three power supplies are installed. Remove and replace only one power supply at a time in a system that is powered
on.
