Note:
The default setting for the voltage switch on the power supplies for the Carrier-8 is for
a low input voltage (marked 115V on the switch). If your electrical system requires a high input
voltage on the power supplies, you must change the settings before plugging in the server (for
instructions, see
Changing the Power Supply Voltage Settings
).
The IntraPort Carrier-8 VPN Access Server features dual redundant 400 Watt power supplies.
Operation using both power supplies is recommended, but not required.
1. Make sure the power switches are set to the “Off” position.
2.
Connect the supplied power cords to the plug on each power unit on the front of the
IntraPort Carrier-8.
3.
Set each power switch to “On.”
At power-up, the server will take approximately one minute to become visible to CompatiView
(see
Chapter 4 - CompatiView Software Installation
for more information).
Power Alarm Information
The power unit alarm will sound whenever a unit is unplugged or turned off. To reset the
alarm, simply press the alarm reset switch.
