Installation and Setup Installing Array Hardware
2–11
Step 3: Turn on Power to the PS5000
Before turning on power, make sure the array is at room temperature.
To turn on power, press – on the switch (located below the power plug) on both
power supply and cooling modules.
Note: Batteries will start to charge and some hardware components will start to
synchronize when power is turned on. Array LEDs may indicate this on-
going activity, which is normal array behavior.
Step 4: Set Up a Serial Connection to the PS5000
If you plan to use the setup utility to configure the software, you must set up a
serial connection. If you plan to use the Remote Setup Wizard, you do not need a
serial connection. See Step 1: Choose a Configuration Method on page 3-1 for
information about Remote Setup Wizard requirements.
Note: Make sure you keep the serial cable. You can use the serial cable to manage
the group or array if there is no network access.
Obtain the serial cable that was shipped with the array and attach the cable to the
serial port on the active control module (ACT LED will be green) and to a console
terminal or a computer running a terminal emulator. See Figure 2-5.
Make sure the serial connection has the following characteristics:
• 9600 baud
• One STOP bit
• No parity
• 8 data bits
• No hardware flow control
