Appendix C Troubleshooting the Installation

Identifying Startup Problems

LED Readings

LEDs indicate all system states in the startup sequence. By checking the LEDs, you can determine when and where the system failed in the startup sequence. To check the LEDs, follow these steps:

Step 1 Compare the LED states to those in Table C-1.

Table C-1 Power Supply LED Meanings

LED and Color

Meaning

 

 

INPUT OK (AC)

This LED should turn green immediately when power is

 

applied to the supply and the power switch is set to ON.

 

Green—AC input voltage is greater than 82 ±3 V.

 

Red—In a dual power supply configuration (alternate

 

unit powered) the AC input is less than 73 ±3 V, or the

 

power supply is turned off.

 

Off—AC input voltage is less than 73 ±3 V, or the

 

power supply is turned off.

 

 

INPUT OK (DC)

This LED should turn green immediately when power is

 

applied to the supply.

 

Green—DC input voltage is greater than -38.25

 

±2.25 V.

 

Red—In a dual power supply configuration (alternate

 

unit powered) the DC input is less than 33 ±3 V, or the

 

power supply is turned off.

 

Off—In a single supply configuration, the LED shall

 

be off to signal that DC input is less than 33 ±3 V, or

 

the power supply is turned off.

 

 

OUTPUT OK

Green—DC output voltages are within the normal

 

operating range.

 

Red—Output voltage between the minimum and

 

maximum limits will not create an output fail alarm.

 

Output voltages below the minimum or above the

 

maximum will create an output fail alarm and cause the

 

LED to illuminate red.
