Powering Up the First Time

NOTE

To turn on your CG3500, simply plug it in. It is not necessary to unplug it when not in use.

You must allow 5 to 30 minutes to power up the first time because the CG3500 must find and lock on the appropriate channels for communications.

1 Be sure that your computer is on and that the CG3500 is unplugged.

2 Plug in the AC power cord for the external UPS. Notice that the lights on the front panel cycle through this sequence:

•Power flashes during a self-test. When the self-test is successfully complete, the light is solid green.

•Receive flashes while the CG3500 scans for the downstream channel. When the downstream channel is locked, the light is solid green.

•Send flashes while the CG3500 scans for the upstream channel. When the upstream channel is locked, the LED is solid green.

•Online flashes while the CG3500 is obtaining configuration information. When the configuration information is obtained, the LED is solid green.

During normal operation, the Power, Receive, Send, and Online lights are on and the Activity light flashes.
