You must apply power to the expansion chassis BEFORE you power up your computer. This will allow the
higher numbered buses in the bus hierarchy to be at a stable state when the host computer issues its
master power-on bus reset.
Each power supply has individual power LEDs to indicate its power status. The power supply has no power
switch that you can flip ON and OFF. Once the expansion unit (power cable) is plugged into an electrical
outlet the entire system is ready to be powered up through the main power switch (push button) located
on the front panel.
One solid Amber LED (D5) and three solid Green LEDs (D3, D8, and D7) are illuminated on the expansion
interface card. Upon connecting the power cable to an electrical outlet and applying power to the
expansion unit, the following LEDs are lit. (see picture below).
The LED on the top should turn AMBER when the power cord is connected to the device from the outlet.
When the front button On/Off switch is activated or pressed, the AC POWER LED should turn green (see
picture below).
Power on Computer
To effectively use your Magma chassis as part of your computer system, ensure that all the proper
connections are made. Then power on your computer. This will enable your Magma chassis to turn ON.
Hardware Check
Once you have turned ON the Magma EB3600-P and the host computer, the next thing to do is to check
the LED status on the hardware. Verify that the following LEDs on the expansion card, host card,
backplane, and front panel are illuminated.
Interface Card and Expansion card operating normally should show up with four Solid Green LEDs (see
picture below). Reset is de-asserted, LED D5 is turned off.
15 Solid Green LEDs on each backplane are illuminated (see picture below).
Check LED "PORT 0 - D9" status, see if it is illuminated solid green or blinking fast. Go to page 41 for LED
status descriptions.
6 solid Green LEDs are lit on the front Panel Status LED indicator (see picture below).
