Appendix B Replacing the Power Supply
Verifying the Status of the Redundant Power Supply
Note
You can order a Y-connector (CAB-AC-Y) to plug into both power connectors in
the power supply. If you use this Y-connector, you remove the backup feature of
this power supply by eliminating redundant operations and reducing reliability.
Cisco highly recommends that you use both power cords whenever possible.
Step 8
Power ON the universal gateway.
The internal power supply fan should power on. If you are using a redundant power supply, the six green
LEDs on the front of the power supply should light. If one LED is not lit, consult the appropriate
redundant power supply software message to determine where the problem is located.
Verifying the Status of the Redundant Power Supply
To display the current status of the Redundant Power Supply unit, enter the
show environment
command.

Configuring the Power Supply Alarm
Cisco IOS software can be configured to poll every second to detect the failure of the redundant power
supply. By default, the facility alarm is off. To begin monitoring of the redundant power supply, enter
the
facility-alarm detect
command.
Enter the no version of the command to disable the alarm.
To configure alarm support for the redundant power supply, follow these steps:
