Power-On

The device automatically boots when the power plug is connected to an electrical outlet. If the unit does not boot automatically, it can be manually booted by quickly flipping the power switch .

NOTE: Power OFF – To perform a graceful shutdown, use the shutdown command in the CLI. If you made any changes to the device configuration, you will be prompted to save your configuration information before the device powers down.

Force Power OFF – If the system stops working and requires a forced shutdown, press and hold the power switch for four seconds. Keep in mind that this forced shutdown will cause a loss of configuration information that has not be manually saved.

Power Supply Unit Installation

This guide describes how to connect the power supply unit to an applicable AC or DC power source.

The following topics are covered:

• Overview

• DC Power Supply Installation

• Power Supply Hot Swap

NOTE: Follow all applicable regulations for installation of electrical equipment; for example, in the United States of America, the National Electrical Code.

For devices with multiple power supplies, it is recommended that all power supplies be plugged-in.

Overview

AC or DC power connections are made using standard connections. AC or DC power is connected to each module separately.

Power connections are made using a hot-swap power cable, which enables quick and easy installation of the power supplies without the need to disturb the terminal blocks. For models with multiple power supply units, power is connected to each module separately.

Before extracting a power supply from the chassis, you must disconnect it from the power source. This is required regardless of whether the power supply is in standby mode or powered on mode. Likewise, when installing a power supply, insert the power supply into the chassis first, before connecting the power supply to the power source.

• Insertion: Input and Output power are connected simultaneously, in either standby mode or powered on mode, when the power supply is inserted into the chassis.

• Extraction: Input and Output power are disconnected simultaneously, in either standby mode or powered on mode, when the power supply is extracted from the chassis.

No damage or arcing to Input or Output contacts occurs.
