Powering On Your System - NEC EXPRESS5800 LC1400 series User Manual

Powering On Your System

Power on your system as follows.
1. Make sure all external devices, such as a video display, keyboard, and
mouse (optional) have been connected, and the power cords are connected.
2. Power on the video display and any other external devices.
3. Press the push-button power on/off switch on the front panel. Verify that the
system power-on LED is lit. If it is not lit, ensure the ac power cords are
connected to a functional ac power source.
After a few seconds your system begins the internal Power-On Self Tests
(POST). POST automatically checks the system board, CPU module, memory,
keyboard, and most installed peripheral devices.
Always allow POST to complete before powering down your
system.
The server management logic on your system board
monitors and logs system voltage changes. When powering
down your system you may experience a 1–5 second delay
from the time you press the push-button power on/off switch
on the front panel and your system powering down. This is
normal system operation and is required by the server
management logic.
If you have problems powering on your system, refer to Problem Solving in
Chapter 5 of this User's Guide.
