LCD panel
The LCD panel provides system information, status, and error messages to indicate if the system is functioning correctly or
requires attention. The LCD panel can also be used to configure or view the system's iDRAC IP address. For information
about the event and error messages generated by the system firmware and agents that monitor system components, go to
qrl.dell.com
> Look Up > Error Code, type the error code, and then click Look it up.
The LCD panel is available only on the optional front bezel. The optional front bezel is hot pluggable.
The statuses and conditions of the LCD panel are outlined here:
● The LCD backlight is white during normal operating conditions.
● When the system needs attention, the LCD backlight turns amber, and displays an error code followed by descriptive text.
NOTE:
If the system is connected to a power source and an error is detected, the LCD turns amber regardless of
whether the system is turned on or off.
● When the system turns off and there are no errors, LCD enters the standby mode after five minutes of inactivity. Press any
button on the LCD to turn it on.
● If the LCD panel stops responding, remove the bezel and reinstall it. If the problem persists, see the PowerEdge T640
Technical Specs at
www.dell.com/poweredgemanuals
● The LCD backlight remains off if LCD messaging is turned off using the iDRAC utility, the LCD panel, or other tools.

Condition
A valid power source is connected to the PSU and the PSU is operational.
Indicates a problem with the PSU.
Power is not connected to the PSU.
When the firmware of the PSU is being updated, the PSU handle blinks green.
CAUTION:
Do not disconnect the power cord or unplug the PSU when updating
firmware. If firmware update is interrupted, the PSUs do not function.
When hot-plugging a PSU, the PSU handle blinks green five times at a rate of 4 Hz and turns off.
This indicates a PSU mismatch with respect to efficiency, feature set, health status, or supported
voltage.
CAUTION:
If two PSUs are installed, both the PSUs must have the same type of label;
for example, Extended Power Performance (EPP) label. Mixing PSUs from previous
generations of PowerEdge servers is not supported, even if the PSUs have the same
power rating. This results in a PSU mismatch condition or failure to turn the system
on.
CAUTION:
When correcting a PSU mismatch, replace only the PSU with the blinking
indicator. Swapping the PSU to make a matched pair can result in an error condition
and unexpected system shutdown. To change from a high output configuration to a
low output configuration or vice versa, you must turn off the system.
CAUTION:
AC PSUs support both 240 V and 120 V input voltages with the exception of
Titanium PSUs, which support only 240 V. When two identical PSUs receive different
input voltages, they can output different wattages, and trigger a mismatch.
CAUTION:
If two PSUs are used, they must be of the same type and have the same
maximum output power.
