Power Up

To get your system powered up and ready to operate,
follow the steps in this section.
To view possible error messages while the system is
running power-up diagnostics, connect a terminal,
workstation, or PC with terminal emulation software
to the system's terminal serial port.
See Chapter 4 and Chapter 6 for information about
cabling and configuring the terminal serial port.
After you have installed all the media modules, cover

each unused slot in the chassis with a blank faceplate.
The faceplates protect the system from dust and
foreign objects and ensure proper system cooling.
On the back panel, slide the power supply latch up

and plug the power cord into the power receptacle.
See Figure 23 for the power receptacle's location.
