Apply power to the switch

WARNING!
power cable in conjunction with a properly grounded outlet to avoid electrical shock. An electrical outlet
that is not correctly wired could place hazardous voltage on metal parts of the switch. It is the responsibility
of the customer to ensure that the outlet is correctly wired and grounded to prevent electrical shock.
You may require a different power cable in some countries because the plug on the cable supplied with the
equipment will not fit your electrical outlet. In this case, you must supply your own power cable. The cable
you use must meet the following requirements:
• For 125 Volt electrical service, the cable must be rated at 10 Amps and be approved by Underwriters
Laboratories (UL) and Canadian Standards Association (CSA).
• For 250 Volt electrical service: The cable must be rated at 10 Amps, meet the requirements of H05VV-F,
and be approved by Verband der Elektrotechnik (VDE), SEMKO, and DEMKO.
To power up a SN6000 Fibre Channel Switch, attach the AC power cord to the receptacle on the back of
the switch and to the power source.
The switch runs its self-tests and begins normal operation—this may take a few minutes:
1. The switch LEDs (Input Power, Heartbeat, System Fault) illuminate followed by all port Logged-in LEDs.
The Logged-in LEDs that illuminate indicate the ports that are enabled.
2. After a couple of seconds, the System Fault LED is extinguished while the Input Power LED and
Heartbeat LED remain illuminated.
3. After approximately one minute, the POST executes and the Heartbeat LED is extinguished.
4. After about another minute, the POST is complete, all LEDs are extinguished, except the Input Power
LED and the Heartbeat LED:
• The Input Power LED remains illuminated indicating that the switch logic circuitry is receiving DC
voltage. If not, contact your authorized maintenance provider.
• The Heartbeat LED indicates the results of the POST. The POST tests the condition of firmware,
memories, data-paths, and switch logic circuitry. If the Heartbeat LED blinks steadily about once per
second, the POST was successful, and you can continue with the installation process. Any other
blink pattern indicates that an error has occurred. For more information, see
patterns" on page 52.
