Foundry Hardware Installation Guide for the FES, FESX, and FWSX

2. Insert the other end into a properly grounded electrical outlet.
3. For the FES2402-POE and FES4802-POE with power supply model RPS8, turn the power switch to the ON
position.
NOTE: The non-POE devices use power supply model RPS5, which do not have power switches. They
power on when you connect a power cord to the device and to a power source.
If your installation requires a different power cord than that supplied with the device, make sure you obtain a
power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations for power cords in your
country. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the device.
4. Verify that the LED for each power supply is a solid green.
5. Verify proper operation by observing the LEDs:
All the port LEDs should flash momentarily, usually in sequence, while the device performs diagnostics. After
the diagnostics are complete, the LEDs will be dark except for the ones that are attached by cables to other
devices. If the links on these cables are good and the connected device is powered on, the link LEDs will
light.
For more details on specific LED conditions after system start-up, see the section below, “Observing the
Power Status LEDs” on page 3-10 and “Hardware Specifications” on page 7-1.
Observing the Power Status LEDs
Table 3.2 lists the LEDs that show power status. The power supplies themselves do not have LEDs.
The software regularly polls the hardware for power status information. You can display the status information
from any management session. In addition, the software automatically generates a Syslog message and SNMP
trap if a status change occurs.
