Powering Up the Unit

1.
After installing your SecureSync unit, and connecting all references and network(s),
verify that power is connected, then turn ON the unit using the switch on the rear panel
(only if equipped with AC power input), and wait for the device to boot up.
2.
Observe that all of the front panel LEDs momentarily illuminate (the Power LED will then
stay lit) and that the Information display LCD back light illuminates. The fan may or may
not run, depending on the model year of your SecureSync unit. For more information,
see "Temperature Management" on page 281.
The time display will reset and then start incrementing the time. About 10 seconds after
power-up, "Starting up SecureSync" will be displayed in the information display. After
approximately 2 minutes, the information display will then show the current network set
tings.
By default, the 4-line information display shows the unit's hostname, IPv4 address, mask,
and gateway.
The time display shows the current time: UTC (default), TAI, GPS or local timescale, as
configured.
