The best kind of AC power source to connect to
the FISC CDM tower is a UPS (Uninterruptible
Power Supply). Lacking this, use a power strip
with a built-in surge protector. Do not use
inferior extension cords as this may result in
damage to your FISC CDM.

To connect the FISC CDM to your network, please refer to the
following steps:
1.
Connect the UTP network cable to your hub or switching
hub. You can use a 10Mbps, 100Mbps or auto-sensing hub;
the FISC CDM will adjust itself automatically.
2.
Turn on the power. The POWER, FAULT and LAN LED
indicators will be lit for a short time (about 1 sec) during
early POST (Power-On Self Test). Then the Power LED
will flash to indicate that a POST (Power-On Self Test) is
still running. After the POST is completed, the system will
begin to mount the installed HD and CD-ROM drives. The
FISC CDM is ready for use after all drives are mounted.
For further information about POST statuses and the
meanings of LED codes, please refer to
Appendix B
—
LED Indicators
.
This concludes Chapter Two. Chapter Three covers how to
configure and manage FISC CDM.
