If you experience power supply problems, test the pin voltages to verify that your
power adapter is working properly.
Power adapter
If your 4820 SurePoint Solution uses a power adapter (also known as a power
brick), test the voltages of the adapter's power cable.
v Models 10D and 1FR use a +12V adapter (part number 66P0405).
v All other models can use a +15V adapter (part number 10N0951).
Table 12 lists the acceptable voltages for each power adapter. If your voltage is
outside the listed range, replace your adapter.
