HP FC 1GB/2GB 16B Operating the HP Surestore FC 1Gb/2Gb Switch 16B, Turning the FC 16B On and Off

To turn the FC 16B on, connect one or both power supplies to a power source, then flip the AC power switch to “I”.

To turn the switch off, turn off both power supplies (if both are installed) by flipping each AC power switch to “O”.

Note: Removing all power from the switch triggers a system reset. When power is restored, all devices are returned to the initial state and the switch runs POST, a one-minute system check.

Interpreting LED Activity

System activity and status can be determined through the activity of the LEDs on the switch.

Note: The LEDs may flash yellow during diagnostic tests, and green, yellow, or orange during POST. This is normal, and does not indicate a problem unless the LEDS do not return to a normal pattern after POST or the other diagnostic tests are complete. The orange light may be referred to as “amber” in other documentation.

The FC 16B includes the following LEDs:

•16 port status LEDs on the SFP media side (above and to the left of each port) to indicate the status of each port.
