5 volt DC input

Figure 3-5. Plugging in the Optional AC/DC Adapter

3.HP recommends that you attach the AC/DC adapter directly to the server housing using tie wraps to ensure that the power supply cable to the card isn’t accidentally disconnected.

CAUTION Do not power down a server with an installed HP TopTools Remote Control card if the card’s battery is weak and the card does not have an AC/DC adapter plugged in. In such a case, you will not be able to remotely connect to the server until someone goes to the server site and powers the unit back on.

Verifying Card Installation

Each time the HP TopTools Remote Control card is powered up, a built-in self-test procedure automatically executes.
