Hot Removal of Power Supplies:

1.Determine which power supply needs replacing by observing the LEDs in the front left of the chassis: the top LED indicates the power status of the right power supply (as observed from the front), the bottom LED indicates the power status of the left power supply (as observed from the front).

Notice that LED being ON indicates that the power supply is operational. The LED being OFF may indicate that the DC power is not applied, please verify that your DC power source is providing power.

2.Once you determine that your DC source is connected properly, and the power supply LED is still not ON, determine which is the failing power supply unit and proceed to the next step.

3.Locate the 48VDC circuit breaker, and switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position.

4.Remove the DC power cables of the faulty power supply from the FlexPoint power supply unit.

5.Loosen the 2 screws securing the power supply to the main chassis (observe the illustration above).

6.Remove the faulty power supply.
