Power is not connected.

Green

The handle indicator lights green indicating that a valid power source is connected

 

to the power supply and that 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
