It is very strongly recommended that a replacement power supply unit be installed
as soon as possible in order to prevent overheating of the chassis unit.
THE POWER SUPPLIES ARE HOT-SWAPPABLE AND CAN BE REPLACED
WITHOUT SHUTTING THE NETWORK DOWN. HOWEVER, WHEN REMOVING AND
REPLACING A POWER SUPPLY UNIT, THE FOLLOWING STEPS MUST BE STRICTLY
FOLLOWED IN ORDER TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH, OR SERIOUS
DAMAGE TO YOUR EQUIPMENT.
Hot Removal of Power Supplies:
1. Determine which power supply needs replacing by observing the LEDs in the
front left of the chassis: the top LED indicates the power status of the right
power supply (as observed from the front), the bottom LED indicates the
power status of the left power supply (as observed from the front).
Notice that LED being ON indicates that the power supply is operational. The
LED being OFF may indicate that the DC power is not applied, please verify
that your DC power source is providing power.
2. Once you determine that your DC source is connected properly, and the power
supply LED is still not ON, determine which is the failing power supply unit
and proceed to the next step.
3. Locate the 48VDC circuit breaker, and switch the circuit breaker to the OFF
position.
4. Remove the DC power cables of the faulty power supply from the FlexPoint
power supply unit.
5. Loosen the 2 screws securing the power supply to the main chassis (observe
the illustration above).
6. Remove the faulty power supply.
