Power Indicator

Condition

Pattern

 

Not lit

Power is not connected.

Green

A valid power source is connected to the power supply and the power supply is operational.

Flashing amber

Indicates a problem with the power supply.

 

CAUTION: When correcting a power supply mismatch, replace only the power supply

 

with the flashing indicator. Swapping the opposite power supply to make a matched pair

 

can result in an error condition and unexpected system shutdown. To change from a High

 

Output configuration to a Low Output configuration or vice versa, you must power down

 

the system.

 

CAUTION: AC power supplies support both 220 V and 110 V input voltages. When two

 

identical power supplies receive different input voltages, they can output different

 

wattages, and trigger a mismatch.

 

CAUTION: If two power supplies are used, they must be of the same type and have the

 

same maximum output power.

Flashing green

When hot-adding a power supply, this indicates that the power supply is mismatched with the

 

other power supply (in terms of efficiency, feature set, health status, and supported voltage).

 

Replace the power supply that has the flashing indicator with a power supply that matches the

 

capacity of the other installed power supply.
