Installing the Cisco VCS
Powering on the VCS
1. Turn on the power switch on the back right of the unit (adjacent to the power cable). Press the soft
power button on the back left of the unit. The system will power up. Wait until:
l
the green PWR LED on the front of the unit is a steady green color (it may flash briefly during
power up)
l
the red ALM LED on the front of the unit has gone out
l
the IP address is showing in the display panel on the front of the unit
If the red ALM LED flashes rapidly it indicates a hardware fault. Contact your local Cisco
representative. The yellow HDD LED indicates disk activity and may flicker during normal
operation, more so on a busy system.
