uUnit Status

Unit status is indicated by one of the following three colors:

•Green: The unit is functioning normally.

•Amber: The unit is in configuration mode.

•Red: The unit is in an error condition (refer to Appendix F: Troubleshooting on page 40).

If the unit status indicator is flashing, the unit is in one of three modes (refer to Table E on page 40).

REAR PANEL INDICATORS

There are two indicators on the private network connector on the rear panel. The right indicator glows orange when there is a good connection between the GW5000 and a Gigabit Ethernet switch that is powered up. If the indicator does not glow, check the cable and the switch. Disregard the left indicator.

There is a green LED next to the public network connector that shows activity on the public network.

UNIT STARTUP

To start the unit:

1.Unlock and open the bezel cover. Be careful not to drop the bezel cover; it is not attached directly to the unit.

2.Turn on the rear panel power switch (if necessary).

3.Press the power button. The power indicator glows.

4.Close and lock the bezel cover.

UNIT SHUTDOWN

You can shut down the GW5000 in either of two ways.

•An orderly shutdown lets the unit close its files and power down without affecting the data files. Use the orderly shutdown in most cases.

•An immediate shutdown is the same as disconnecting power. This option is not recommended; only use it in an emergency or when there is not enough time for an orderly shutdown.

WARNING: Loss or corruption of data may occur if there is not an orderly shutdown.

To shut down the unit:

1.Unlock and open the bezel cover. Be careful not to drop the bezel cover; it is not attached directly to the unit.

2.Select one of the following:

•For an orderly shutdown, quickly press and release the power button.

•For an immediate shutdown, press and hold the power button until the unit shuts down.

3.Close and lock the bezel cover.
