If any of the status LEDs indicates that the power supply is not functioning normally,
repeat the installation and cabling procedures.
NOTE: After powering off a power supply, wait at least 60 seconds before
turning it back on. After powering on a power supply, wait at least 60

If the system is completely powered off when you power on the power
supply, the Routing Engine (or RCB) boots as the power supply completes
its startup sequence. If the Routing Engine finishes booting and you need
to power off the system again, first issue the CLI request system halt
command.
After a power supply is powered on, it can take up to 60 secondsfor status
indicators—such as the status LEDs on the power supply and the
show chassis command display—to indicate that the power supply is
functioning normally. Ignore error indicators that appear during the first
60 seconds.

CAUTION: Do not mix AC and DC power supplies within the same router.
Damage to the router might occur.
WARNING: Before performing DC power procedures, ensure that power is
removed from the DC circuit. To ensure that all power is off, locate the circuit
breaker on the panel board that services the DC circuit, switch the circuit
breaker to the off position, and tape the switch handle of the circuit breaker
in the off position.
You connect DC power to the router by attaching power cables from the external DC
power sources to the terminal studs on the power supply faceplates. You must provide
the power cables (the cable lugs are supplied with the router).
