4.8 Connecting the AC Power Cords
The DSN-5000 expansion array has two power receptacles. Both must be used to connect the
DSN-5000 expansion array to an AC outlet:
1. Plug the female end of one power cord into one of the 3-pronged power connectors on
the back of the DSN-5000 expansion array. Plug the other end of the power cord into a
working AC outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch.
2. Repeat the previous step using the second power cable and power receptacle on the
DSN-5000 expansion array.
For best practices, use both power supplies and connect the second power
receptacle to a different circuit.
4.9 Powering-on the DSN-5000 Expansion Array
To power-on the DSN-5000 expansion array, turn on the rocker switches on both power
supplies at the rear of the unit. When the DSN-5000 expansion array powers-on, the
following actions occur:

The front panel Power LED turns green.

The DSN-5000 expansion array runs its power-on procedure, after which the READY LED
on the right front bracket turns green.
