5. Operation
This chapter explains how to operate the ServSwitch Wizard MP. Please read this
chapter carefully before starting to use the Wizard MP; also make sure you have
read the important note at the start of
Chapter 4
.
5.1 Power Status
At power-up, the ServSwitch Wizard MP will go through its bootup sequence, then
try to select CPU channel #1 unless (a) a password has been set or (b) the Wizard
MP isn’t getting enough power to operate properly. Watch the Wizard MP’s front-
panel 7-segment display, as described in Figure 5-1: If the Wizard MP isn’t receiving
enough power, the display will be blank; while the Wizard MP’s booting, the
display will show “b”; if the Wizard MP can select CPU 1, the display will show “1”;
or if a password has been set, the Wizard MP will display “P” and remain locked
until a valid password is entered. (For the meaning of this display after power-up,
see
Section 5.3
.)
