LED State Description
AC Power Green The power supply is connected to AC power.
Off The power supply is not receiving DC power. This can happen if an AC
cable is not connected, if the power supply is not correctly installed in
the slot, or if the power supply is not functioning.
DC Power Green The power supply is providing DC power.
Off The power supply is not providing DC power. If the AC power LED is lit
and the DC power LED is not, the power supply is not functioning
correctly and should be replaced. This LED can also go off if the power
supply overheats. If this happens the power supply stops supplying DC
power. After the power supply cools down in will start supplying DC
power again and this LED lights.
