Table 5 AC PSU status indicator codes (continued)
Power indicator codes
Condition
Blinking green
When the firmware of the PSU is being
updated, the PSU handle blinks green.
CAUTION
Do not disconnect the power
cable, or unplug the PSU when updating
firmware. If firmware update is
interrupted, the PSUs do not function.
Blinking green and turns off
When hot-plugging a PSU, the PSU handle
blinks green five times at a rate of 4 Hz and
turns off. This indicates a PSU mismatch
concerning efficiency, feature set, health
status, or supported voltage.
CAUTION
If two PSUs are installed, both
the PSUs must have the same type of
label; for example, Extended Power
Performance (EPP) label. Mixing PSUs
from previous generations of PowerEdge
servers is not supported, even if the PSUs
have the same power rating. This results
in a PSU mismatch condition, or failure to
turn on the system.
CAUTION
When correcting a PSU
mismatch, replace only the PSU with the
blinking indicator. Swapping the PSU to
make a matched pair can result in an error
condition and unexpected system
shutdown. To change from a high output
configuration to a low output
configuration or conversely, you must turn
off the system.
CAUTION
AC PSUs support both 240 V
and 120 V input voltages except for
Titanium PSUs, which support only 240 V.
When two identical PSUs receive
different input voltages, they can output
different wattages, and trigger a
mismatch.
CAUTION
If two PSUs are used, they
must be of the same type and have the
same maximum output power.
CAUTION
Combining AC and DC PSUs is
not supported and triggers a mismatch.
