Redundant Power Supply
The redundant power supply feature consists of hot-swappable power supply modules. If one of the power modules
fails, the remaining working power supply modules will continue to provide power to the unit so users do not
experience downtime. A replacement power supply could be installed while the unit is running. Once the replacement
power supply has been installed, the unit will regain its redundant power feature.
Note: Power must be supplied to all power supply modules in order for the redundant feature to operate correctly.
Fan/Power Fail LED Information (Front Panel)
When the power supply modules or internal cooling fan malfunctions, the front fail LED will blink and the alarm will
go off. Please see table below:
Description Alarm Buzzer Fail LED
Power supply failure Always on Blinking red
Cooling fan failure Beep with one second interval Blinking red
Note: Pressing down the ‘Alarm Reset’ button temporarily silences the alarm. Alarm will start buzzing again once the
unit has been restarted.
