INSTALLATION

Connect the Power:

Attach the power supply to the DC power jack labeled “DC 12V, 1A”
located on the rear of the MATRIX2. Once the power is connected to a
power source, the LED for port 01 will begin flashing. Sequentially push
the direct-access port selectors for ports 01 through 08 (16 for
F1DM216T). The corresponding LED should flash as each button is
pressed, indicating that the port is ready for connecting your servers.
